"Evil Ways" lyrics

Lawlessness, Badlands
Uncivilized — you're a bad man
But even the baddest
Savages eventually get humbled by the averages

Donkey of the day, ass with no pass
Addicted to the screens, screaming for the laughs
What I got to do with you being you?
River deep, mountain high, like the best of your crew

I got the leader of the pack
That don't give a track
About nobody praying
In a whirl they be playing

Why swell your ego to think you gonna
Get away with crime?
Cameras everywhere — this ain't 1985

You got to change your evil way
No gangster — it ain't the way I wanna go
You gots to change these strangers
A better way I want y'all to know
Change your evil way

What goes up comes back down
Gravity got a way to bring down clowns
Stumbling on the face, tumbled down a staircase
Evil is a terrible waste

Let's go — download this muther for ya
We the roll, baby

Millennial wild, crack-rugged grandchild
Bone-chillin' killers, movie-made matinee thriller
Gun, gun, gun — homie homicide, take a ride
Run, run, run — yo, you cannot hide

From your folly, hello Dolly
Unless you get a pardon
Abide by a law you and I never saw
Let these gangsters out the door

You got to change your evil way
No gangster — it ain't the way I wanna go
You gots to change these strangers
A better way I want y'all to know
Change your evil ways

Lawlessness, Badlands
Uncivilized — you're a bad man
But even the baddest
Savages eventually get humbled by the averages

Gots the nerve of a red pickup
Truckin' mother
Son of a badass Magger
Hunting down in Badlands

Woke up mad in the mirror
With a bad attitude
Ugly is under that face, my dude

Everything ain't funny
Another slave to the money
Hunted down like a dog now
You're a slave to the runnin'

You got to change your evil way
No gangster — it ain't the way I wanna go
You gots to change these strangers
A better way I want y'all to know
Change your evil ways

Change your evil ways...
