Bruno Mars

Bad Meets Evil

This one's for you and me

living out our dreams

we're alright where

we should be

With my arms out wide

I open my eyes

and now all I wanna see

is a sky full of lighters

a sky full of lighters

By the time you hear this

I would've already

spiralled up I would never

do nothing to let you

cowards ****my world up

If I was you I would duck

or get struck like lightnin'

fighters keep fightin'

put you lighters up

point them skyward, uh

Had a dream I was king

I woke up still king

this rap game's n*pple

is mine for the milking

Till nobody else even

****in' feels me

till it kills me

I swear to God I'll be the

****in' illest in this music

There is, or there ever

will be disagree? Feel free

but from now on

I'm refusing to

ever give up

Only thing I ever gave up's

using, no more excuses

excuse me if my head is

too big for this building

And pardon me if I'm a

********** but you

****s are slick poppin'

****on how you flipped

your life around

Crock of ****who you

****s tryna kid?

Flip ****you did opposite

you stayed the same

'Cause ****backwards

is still ****you *****s

I love it when I tell them

shove it 'cause it

wasn't that

Long ago when Marshall

sat flustered

lacked luster

'cause he couldn't cut

Mustard, muster up

nothing brain fuzzy

'cause he's buzzin'

woke up from that buzzin'

Now you wonder why

he does it how he does it?

Was it 'cause he had

buzzards circling

around his head

Waiting for him

to drop dead, was it?

Or was it 'cause some

******s wrote him off?

Little hussy a*s scuzzes

****it, guess it doesn't

matter now does it?

What difference it make?

What's it take

To get it through your

thick skulls that this ain't

some bull****people

don't usually come

back this way

From a place that was dark

as I was in just to get to

this place now let these

words be like a switch

blade to a haters ribcage

And let be known that

from this day forward

I wanna just say thanks

'cause your hate is what

gave me the strength

So let them drinks raise

'cause I came with five

nine but I feel like I'm

six eight

This one's for you and me

living out our dreams

we're alright where

we should be

With my arms out wide

I open my eyes and

now all I wanna see

is a sky full of lighters

a sky full of lighters

By the time you hear this

I probably already

be outty

I advance like I went from

toting iron to goin' and

buying four or five

of the homies

the Iron Man Audi

My daddy told me

slow down boy

you're going to blow it

And I ain't gotta stop

the beat a minute

to tell Shady I love him

the same way that he did

Dr. Dre on the Chronic

Tell him how real he is

or how high I am or

how I would kill for him

for him to know it

I cried plenty of tears

my daddy gotta bad back

so it's only right, that I

write till he can march

right into that post office

And tell 'em to hang it up

now his career's Lebron's

Jersey in twenty years

I stop when I'm at the

very top, you *****ed on

me on your way up

there's about to be

a scary drop

'Cause what goes up

must come down

you goin' down on

something you don't

wanna see

Like a hairy box every

hour happy hour now

life is wacky now

used to have to eat

the cat to get the *****

Now I'm just the cat's

meow, oow

I'm classic now

always down for the

catchweight like Pacquiao

Y'all are doomed

I remember when T-Pain

ain't wanna work with me

my car starts itself, parks

itself and auto-tunes

'Cause now I'm in the

Aston, I went from having

my city locked up to

getting treated like

Kwame Kilpatrick

And now I'm fantastic

compared to a weed high

and y'all *****s just

gossiping like ******s

On a radio and TV

see me we fly

y'all buggin' out like

Wendy Williams

staring at a bee hive

And how real is that?

I remember signing

my first deal now I'm

the second best

I can deal with that

Now Bruno can

show his a*s

without the MTV

awards gag

Will you and I..

know what it's like

to be kicked down

forced to fight

But tonight

we're alright

so hold up your lights

let it shi.....ne

Because this one's for

you and me

living out our dreams

we're alright

where we should be

With my arms out wide

I open my eyes and

now all I wanna see

is a sky full of lighters

a sky full of lighters
