Little devil, don't you see
You could own these city streets if you were running with me
No more cages and no more leash
No, you gonna be the danger with just a gnash of your teeth
I can hold the line and keep ‘em back while you make a break
I can roar and I can growl in all these motherfuckers’ face
I will keep you safe from the billy clubs, puppy, just run
And I'll show you what to do

You gotta stare ‘em down
You gotta stand your ground
Then you open your mouth and you bark out:
“Don't assume I cannot take it rough, rough, rough
I snarl back and I get tough, tough, tough
Y'all'd be real mistaken
Tryin’ to push me down and around anymore
I'm a bad, bad dog
No more precious puppy when I'm under attack
I'll bite your face off if you fuck with my pack
If y'all gon’ try to muzzle me
Then I'mma take you down to the floor
I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad dog”

Sweet puppy, sharpen your claws
Yeah, today you gotta use ‘em, cause you got just cause
No you don't gon’ let no opportunity ever slip through your paws
To get ‘em in your jaws
Now you go for the jugular, and show no restraint
Show ‘em you're the only one who gets control of your brain
No more playing games, puppy they don't get to keep you in chains
Show them pigs what you can do
You gotta stare ‘em down
You gotta stand your ground
Then you open your mouth and you bark out:
“Don't assume I cannot take it rough, rough, rough
I snarl back and I get tough, tough, tough
Y'all'd be real mistaken
Tryin’ to push me down and around anymore
I'm a bad, bad dog
No more precious puppy when I'm under attack
I'll bite your face off if you fuck with my pack
If y'all gon’ try to muzzle me
Then I'mma take you down to the floor
I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad dog”
