Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I do bad things to good versions of me
I find good things in bad versions of me
I don't know, it's just versions of me, babe
[Verse 2]
I'm in a nightmare havin' a dream
I got a question, am I who I seem?
Oh, I'm out the Matrix from battlin' me
I'm dipped in all black, shadow and me
Something undefined is now takin' over me
Who am I to fight me for my own soul?
I'm saying yes to things that usually a no for me
I kiss the neon night and let it have control
[Verse 3]
I do bad things to good versions of me
I find good things in bad versions of me
I don't know, it's just versions of me, babe
[Verse 4]
Why do I feel so free when I'm killin' me?
I'm fallin' to the sky, caught between all the lines
[Verse 5]
I'm in a nightmare havin' a dream
I got a question, am I who I seem?
Oh, I'm out the Matrix from battlin' me
I'm dipped in all black, shadow and me
I get so sad at myself
When I love what's bad for my health
I wanna do right and I would
But wrong tastes and feels so good
[Verse 6]
Clutch the Dutch, these feelings is hard to touch
Puff enough stuff, sometimes life is rough
On the cusp of doin' right, who I'm foolin', right?
A child of the light goin' wild for the night
'Cause most of fights I have, yo, I have with myself
A good dude but I can do bad by myself
It's sad that I felt that I could never be
With nobody, girl, you know my G
O-D on the good life, I'm a man, it's simple
Probably the things I been through and the evil that men do
I want my cake and eat it, heartbreak, they take and leave it
The same song I'm bein' featured, I can't delete it
The good, you can see it but you really a bad girl
Livin' in a mad world, sometimes you want that, girl
You ain't been Madonna through the drama, if it's comin' back it's karma
A queen is made to honor
[Verse 7]
I do bad things to good versions of me
I find good things in bad versions of me
I don't know, it's just versions of me, babe
Oh, I get so sad at myself
When I love what's bad for my health
I wanna do right and I would
But wrong tastes and feels so good
It's so good
[Verse 8]
It's just, it's just, it's just versions of me
It's just versions of me
It's just versions of me, baby
