《Bad City》的歌詞如下:
Verse 1:
Yo, Bad City lights
Make a dark day bright
Bloodstains on the block
From a night of wrong
This city ain't got no soul
So we can't get along
Chorus:
I feel like I'm losing my mind
I don't know what to do without you
When I'm with you, I feel like I'm winning
But I'm losing my mind in this bad city
Verse 2:
This city is dirty and cheap
I can't believe what I see
Broken windows and cracks
On the street, people just waste
But I'm holding on to your love
And I'm trying to make it work
Chorus:
I feel like I'm losing my mind
I don't know what to do without you
When I'm with you, I feel like I'm winning
But I'm losing my mind in this bad city
Bridge:
I don't want to leave you behind
I want to be with you all the time
But I gotta keep it real
With my surroundings, it's hard to hide
But I won't give up, I won't lose hope
And we can make it work, we can make it work
Chorus:
So I'm losing my mind again
I don't know what to do without you
When I'm with you, I feel like I'm winning
But I'm losing my mind in this bad city

Translation:這是一座糟糕的城市,歌詞和翻譯如下:
糟糕的城市燈光,使黑暗的日子變得明亮。街頭的血跡斑斑,是因為昨夜的不幸。這個城市沒有靈魂,所以我們無法和睦相處。這座城市骯髒又廉價,我不敢相信我所看到的。窗戶破碎,街頭的裂痕,人們只是浪費生命。但我會堅持你的愛,努力讓它起作用。我會在糟糕的城市中失去我的理智,感覺無計可施。我不想把你留在這裡,我想和你一直在一起,但我要保持真實,面對周圍的環境,很難隱藏。但我不會放棄,我不會失去希望,我們可以讓它起作用,我們可以讓它起作用。所以我又在失去我的理智了。感覺無計可施。和你在一起時,我感覺自己正在獲勝,但我在這座糟糕的城市中失去了我的理智。
