No one can stop me now
I'm like a human dynamo
Live wired and chargin' out with power
This time I won't hold back, I'm rarin' to get up and go
Fuelled up and growin' by the hour
Look out, I'm blastin' through the lines alive and kickin'
Watch out, I'm young and lethal
I'm goin' from here until eternity
I'm feelin' reckless
Way outa hand, a real survivor
Reckless, comin' at gale force ten
Around me I feel the shock waves, building from the energy
A force field that no one can break through
Solid as rock no wonder I am indestructible
First placed in everything I do
Radio active I'm shootin' through the atmosphere
Takin' off, I'm headin' like a rocket through the stratosphere.
Why have you moved the furniture?
Why is your case in the hall?
Where have you taken the children?
What's all this drama for?
I know I've been careless
But this is reckless
Yes I've been careless
But this is reckless
So why don't we just sit down?
Take off you coat, let me make us a drink
There's no need for a scene
You're being silly, acting this way
More than we've ever been.
I know I've been careless
But this is reckless
Yes I've been careless
But this is reckless
I don't want to wreck our love
But I just want to rectify it.
INSTRUMENTAL
I know I've been careless
But this is reckless
Yes I've been careless
But this is reckless
I don't want to wreck our love
I just want to rectify it.
Take off you coat, let me make us a drink
There's no need for a scene
You're being silly, acting this way
More than we've ever been.
I know I've been careless
But this is reckless
Yes I've been careless
But this is reckless
I've been careless, reckless
Careless, reckless
Reckless!
Look out baby, I'm comin to town
I'll tear it up, and I'll tear it down.
Reckless!
I play long, I play hard
I play for keeps, with no holds barred.
And I rock, and I roll
And I do it out of control
Reckless!
I'll do anything that hasn't been done
I'll do it for money, I'll do it for fun.
Reckless!
And I do get busted, I don't understand
I'll be your lover baby, I'm a back-door man
I'm fast, and I take chances.
I'm a fool for one night romances.
I'm reckless!
Get reckless!
Uh - Yeah!
Reckless!
Well, I want it now, I can't wait my turn.
I've been fried, but I won't get burned.
I live my life for the flash
Reach for the edge, but I won't crash!
For the best.
The stronger the danger
I could care less
Leaves me breathless
Reckless!
Reckless!
Reckless!
I break all the rules!
Reckless!
I wanna live for today!
Reckless!
Reckless!
Reckless!
Reckless!
Reckless!
Reckless!

"Drumma Boy" [echoes]
Ay yeah boyyyy, ay yeah [x2]
(It's Gucci! Unghh)
[Gucci Mane:]
Hey girl I'm tearin it up and they knowin that
I had sex so much that I ain't goin back
I blow stack after stack after stack after stack
At the rack everyday and they knowin that
Well I'm blowin that and I'm doin this
And my red flag got the haters pissed
Don't reckless, this not a diss
This not a threat, this real shit
And don't play me, cause ain't no stoppin me
Ain't no toppin me, and ain't no robbin me
Cut the robbers outs, I brought the goons out
We reckless, we O.G.
On Acuras and they textin us
But who gives a fuck and who gives a damn?
I'm blood in and blood out on Flat Shoals with big sand
And Waka Flocka, thanks Flocka Waka
Two times, cause we two crimes
Two bloods and two rides with fo' nines and gang signs
So what's up? The pricety, I'm icey and Icey
I'm the king of diamonds and the princess shinin
And all mine behind me
[Chorus: x8]
Let's get reckless, let's get reckless
[Cap:]
Oh yeah! Cap, I'm in beast mode
Hell yeah I'm on reckless
If you don't like it pussy nigga come check this
Respect this or meet your death wish
There's 17 bird on my necklace
I fuck with dem and they fuck with me
Don't fuck with us, get the fuck from 'round
Cause I like to pop and we sucker free
Reckless, reckless, e'rybody goin HAM
Don't test this, cause if you do
That Smith & Wesson go blam, damn
Look what the fuck done happened
Just cause you heard that a nigga start rappin

No toppin, no clappin, clear the whole scene I'm smashin
Bye, gone - boy you better catch up nigga
Get hit from your neck up nigga
Nobody wan' fess up, get your block up
Leave the whole scene full of ketchup nigga
They are wildin, on wildin, on ballin, they violent
I got the little man sydrome, get me in the end zone
Signin autographs who's stylin?
[Chorus]
[Chill Will:]
Huh? Huh? Huh?
Vacation in Miami, they say I'm swag surfin
Your girl with ya she ain't lookin but her ass flirtin
See I'm a classy nigga, a thousand dollar curtains
And I just made yo' nigga mad cause his pocket hurtin
And I don't mean I'm jackin off when I say I'm chokin chickens
I mean, when we rap on mo' we call that chokin chickens
I got a talkin code, for all he knows it folds
Too buck to be on probation, too rich to be on parole
My dawgs love me on I'm on the mic talkin reckless
Stuntin, ballin, million dollar flexin
My dawgs love me on I'm on the mic talkin reckless
Stuntin, ballin, millionaire flexin
[Chorus]
Please forgive me
When I turn out the lights
Watch this haunted day
Turn into a wasted night
So cut me off, throw me out
'Cause I?m a reckless
I?m a reckless *** damn son of a bitch
I?m reckless, so reckless
God save me from this madness
I?m reckless, so, so reckless
God save me from this madness
I?m walking on broken glass
From the wreckage of my past
I?m locked up in a cage
'Cause I?m a prisoner of my ways
So cut me off, throw me out
'Cause I?m a reckless
I?m a reckless *** damn son of a bitch
I?m reckless, so reckless
God save me from this madness
I?m reckless, so reckless
God save me, save me from this madness
Thank God, I?ve got a woman
With my name across her heart
Loving me ain't easy
Loving me is hard
I?m sorry about the madness
But that?s the way it?s gotta be
'Cause it takes a crazy woman
To love a reckless man like me
I?m reckless, so reckless
God save me from this madness
I?m reckless, so, so reckless
God save me, save me from this madness
I?m reckless, so reckless
God save me, save me from this madness
I?m reckless, so reckless
Well I met you in the backroom
You had lipstick on your face
With your see-through backless frilly dress
You were every mom's disgrace
Well I'd like to understand you
But I couldn't even if I tried
Like a charging bull in the face of death
I was fit to be tied
Well come on when I call you Angeline
To be in love with you is just a bit obscene
Let me take you out for one more dance, yeah
My name is reckless when I get a chance
I had a toothbrush in my pocket
You had a six inch home-made knife
You said you haven't slept in seven days
Well I said baby where've you been all my life
Well if opposites attract baby
Well we're like night and day
I said look me up in a couple of years
When that heat sore goes away
Well come on when I call you Angeline Angeline
To be in love with you is just a bit obscene
Let me take you out for one more dance, yeah
My name is reckless when I get the chance
Well come on when I call you Angeline
To be in love with you is just a bit obscene
Let me take you out for one more dance, yeah
My name is reckless when I get a chance
My name is reckless when I get a chance
I still think about us
In the rush that we felt
With the rag top down and the radio blasting
You were riding shot gun
In nothing but a bikini and a seat belt
Looking better than the law should have been allowing
(chorus)
We hit the corners going 90
Lovin' blindly fallin'
Head over heels over you
Every feeling that we felt
Was a feeling that felt brand new
And you looked just like an angel
With that cross on your necklace
You were young, i was wild, we were reckless
We'd drive on down to the river
Burnin' up those hot summer nights
Laughin' at the cowboys getting crazy
Pickin' fights
It wasn't funny
When that deputy, caught you and me
Steaming up those windows
And how your daddy never found out about it
Honey, heaven only knows
Chorus
I looked into your eyes and I
Promised you forever
I believed it with all my heart
I just didn't know any better
Gettin' over you took years
Aww despite those tears I cried
I'd do it all over again
All for the thrill of the ride
Chorus
I've been trying to make sense
I've been shouting under my breath
How's any of this in my interest?
When you sold me out
I must've not got the cheque
Your lust is a lie but it comes as no suprise
Time after time you coast right past the line
I do my best to,
To make amends with you
But I just can't see the end
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless and you're defenseless
Isn't it funny how
Those black clouds follow you around?
It's karma smiling down
Just let me know when it's in town
You act like the world owes you a favour
You want it all but you don't like the taste oh
You've been throwing bricks at my window
Like there's no better way to say 'hello'
Hello
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless and you're defenseless
The best you never had
The best you never had
The best you never had
The best you never had
I'm the devil on your shoulder
I'm the conscious in your mind
I'm the feeling that you
You cannot hide
I'm the devil on your shoulder
Telling you that love is blind
It's ok when it's hiding in disguise
Your loose lips let
Let words slide
You spend too much
Time talking about my life
Stories you will spin
Just for a power trip
It's safe to say that I am not into it
In the picture you are not
Someone else is in your spit
This is the result of people moving on
Good luck with killing time
You won't be killing mine
I'll do my best to always be on your mind
I never once said I didn't mean this
I can't wait to see how this one pans out
You are the first to question my achievemnets
But that's alright
My dreams I've been living
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless and you're defenseless
The best you never had
The best you never had
The best you never had
Meet me down by the jetty landing
Where the pontoons bump and spray
All the others reading standing
As the Manly ferry
Cuts it's way to circular quay
Hear the Captain blow his whistle
So long she's been away
I miss our early morning wrestle
Not a very happy
Way to start the day
Refrain ~
She don't like that kind of behaviour
She don't like that kind of behaviour
Chorus ~
So throw down your guns
Don't you be so reckless
Throw down your guns
Don't you be so
Feel like Scott of the Antarctic
Base camp to far away
A Russian sub beneath the Arctic
Burke and Wills and camels
Initials in the tree
Oh reckless, a boy wonder, so quiet, nose broken
Oh, you're standing there, look tired as your singing
And you're on fire, they're throwing punches
So backwards the landscape you thought you knew, it starts unwinding
Now you're jumping through their hoops
You're just trying to dodge all their questions
They're shooting bullets
Cause we all want to hear but you can't, you can't
And we all want to see but you don't, you don't
You are amazing
Oh the horses, suits and ties, they will not hesitate to trample
You keep moving, stop moving, it's the same
You know if it is broken they'll try to fix it
It's a shame that, did they get you? they got you
Yeah they might have
You keep covering their mouths, they keep on talking
The parade it is coming, I hear them marching
Case we all want to hear but you can't, you can't
And we all want to see but you don't, you don't
You are amazing
Yeah we all think we're right but we're wrong, we're wrong
And we all want to talk and we do, we do
They have convinced you
It's so shocking
You cheated your fate now, we can't read your face
I guess that you could say
That things worked out okay for now
The promises you made
Could disappear without a trace
'Cause I'm reckless
'Cause I'm reckless, yeah
'Cause I'm reckless
Somewhere along the way
You raised your hand up to my face
And said you never should look back
Experience has taught us that
And I tried, I tried, yeah I tried
But I still feel out of place and strange
'Cause I'm reckless
'Cause I'm reckless, now
'Cause I'm reckless
And somewhere out in space
A satellite revolves untraced
You offer up so much
I'm sure there is a price to pay
'Cause I'm reckless
'Cause I'm reckless, yeah
'Cause I'm reckless
I guess that you could say
Quarter past 10. and I'm reckless. I'm reckless at best.
Live like you never knew. watch the days count down from two.
One shot. I'm feeling so dishonest.
Like love, the line you're standing on is weak.
I've been told, one more than one occasion.
Two more hours and, I'm still waiting.
Ohh I believe in what's inside you. You're still a part of me.
Flame burned out this time. Eyes can't see, in matters of the heart.
I guess I gotta believe. Put your faith in me.
I tried to run, but my feet clipped, my feet clipped the curb.
I spend most nights alone on the couch, staring at the floor.
If love is my religion, Like love.. we never get it.
Scream my lungs out what have I done
Ohh I believe in what's inside you. You're still a part of me.
Flame burned out this time. Eyes can't see, in matters of the heart.
Just gotta believe.
Put your faith in me.
Meet me down by the jetty landing
Where the the pontoons bump and spray
I see the others reading, standing
As the Manly Ferry cuts its way to Circular Quay
Hear the Captain blow his whistle
So long shes been away
I miss our early morning wrestle
Not a very Happy way to start the day
She don't like That kind of behaviour x 2
Chorus
So, throw down your guns
Don't be so reckless
Throw down your guns
Don't be so
Feel like Scott of the Antarctic
Base camp too far away
A Russian sun beneath the Arctic
Burke and Wills and camels
Initials in the tree
She don't like That kind of behaviour x 2
the believers are naive
faith will only lead you astray
standing on the brink of total destruction
with failure at our side and disappointment in our looks
the coffin nailed shut
now you must think of all you've taken for granted
and what you'll miss when your heart stops
now you're the victim
writing your own obituary
scarred for your trespass
the bullets that you've dodged all these years
are turning and coming your way
in this the age of the weak and vulnerable
we stand for the always reckless
cursed by fate
guided by misfortune
and well act without hesitation
to black the eyes of faith
driven by disgust and resentment
because we're always
cursed by fate
guided by misfortune
Oh reckless, a boy wonder, so quiet, nose broken
Oh, you're standing there, look tired as your singing
And you're on fire, they're throwing punches
So backwards the landscape you thought you knew, it starts unwinding
Now you're jumping through their hoops
You're just trying to dodge all their questions
They're shooting bullets
Cause we all want to hear but you can't, you can't
And we all want to see but you don't, you don't
You are amazing
Oh the horses, suits and ties, they will not hesitate to trample
You keep moving, stop moving, it's the same
You know if it is broken they'll try to fix it
It's a shame that, did they get you? they got you
Yeah they might have
You keep covering their mouths, they keep on talking
The parade it is coming, I hear them marching
Case we all want to hear but you can't, you can't
And we all want to see but you don't, you don't
You are amazing
Yeah we all think we're right but we're wrong, we're wrong
And we all want to talk and we do, we do
They have convinced you
It's so shocking
You cheated your fate now, we can't read your face
You are gone
Take a moment to look back where it started
When everything you take for granted
Is everything that keeps you stranded here
Take a moment to look back where it fell through
When it was not so scary
Just temporary
Now that's over
Now everything you ever wanted has been pushed aside
You're face down €" broken glass
Waiting for this time to pass
Reckless and underclassed
Hoping this will never last
Feeling dormant, struggling inch by inch
Breaking open; watch me give in again
See the cut up hands of this broken man
Weighing me down, but
Weakened knees; I'm trembling
Pushed aside; I'm failing
Wipe this sweat from my brow
I'm still waiting here
Searching for this place
Nothin's changin' but the shadows on the wall
I wish I could leave myself at the end of the hall
Always pushin' pushin' away what I need the most
Well here I go again but this time we got so close
Chorus:
I was reckless reckless
I was reckless to the end
I was foolish and careless
And reckless once again
It looks like I really led myself astray
And even I don't believe half the things I say
Always runnin' and I still don't know where I am
I just can't afford to let you slip right thru my hands
Chorus
All the right words remain unspoken
Another promise made
Another promise broken
Chorus
James Reyne (Warner Chappell)
Meet me down by the jetty landing
Where the pontoons bump and sway
All the others reading, standing
As the Manly ferry cuts its way to Circular Quay
Hear the captain blow his whistle
So long you've been away
I miss our early morning wrestle
Not a very happy way to start the day
She don't like that kind of behaviour
She don't like that kind of behaviour
Throw down your guns
Don't be so reckless
Throw down your guns
Like Scott in the Antarctic
Base camp so far away
Russian subs beneath the Arctic
Burke and Wills and camels
Initials on the tree
She don't like that kind of behaviour
She don't like that kind of behaviour
Throw down your guns
Don't you be so reckless
Yo yo yo, let's go smoke
Yeah, down there by the train track
Got this half pound - knahmsayin?
And on the way there let's set off car alarms
YouknowhatI'msayin? {*boom*} Ey - yo!
Known to get wild, Pacewon throw his chrome up
Let's see how you Jakes feel bloody with a donut
Dr. Bypass-the-Wack, fly-asser
Themes make you fiends work out like Thighmaster
On course, avoidin every obstacle
Takin life for granted, actin irresponsible
Reckless! {*boom*} .. better watch your back boy
Yo! I once knew this fast chick, mad thick, flava
Heard some ghetto girls had words and it made her
steamed like hot water, thinkin shit's sweet
Runnin lip 'til she crashed the whip her pop bought her
The night before Christmas, all through the house
All you could smell was the smoke from her, huffin a ounce
Then she went drivin, still smokin herb
Started to swerve, hit a hydrant {*errrr*}
Banged in the front grill, one ill hoochie she is
Drove off pumpin +Lo+, "Luchini" remix
This female would smack kids, a little more than active
This bitch was way out of control like rap is
Reckless! {*boom*} Huh
Open your eyes and see it's unwise to be
Reckless! {*boom*} You know you need to calm down y'knahmsayin?
You can't do this
Yo - one of my boys got shot in the throat
He used to break day on the block, sellin coke
5-for-20 seller, no girlie hassles
Dirty rascal, never showered, smell worse than 30 assholes
(You stink!) Flamboyant, but made bad decisions
Had a attitude (fuck y'all) went rags to riches
Did some time on the Island and THEN
he came back home and now he whylin again
Reckless! {*boom*} Yo
Open your eyes and see it's unwise to be
Reckless! {*boom*} Y'knahmsayin?
Follow, you were always one to call out and always one to hold on for your life. You€™re reckless; reckless you€™re not waiting, waiting for the red lit young street light. But I don€™t remember a time when the young didn€™t become old. I€™ve forgotten the footprints laid down. There you go, on your own caught in the morning sun. There you go. I watch you grow and I realize I€™m happy now. Grown up, hoping you remember. I sit here in the old house your childhood home. I wonder. You€™re living on your own now. When are you going to slow down and let me love you? I€™m old and I€™m wrinkled. I€™m star struck by all of your young grace. Why can't I watch you proceed on your own? Now that I€™m over the edge. Now out of time.
Clock's tickin', one tick at a time
Another day's gonna leave us behind if we let it
Rain's drippin' against the glass
I swear it's whisperin', you gotta take a chance
Or you'll regret it
Oh, let's not regret it
Let's get reckless, reckless with our hearts
Let's find us some danger in the dark
Wild and free, you and me
Reckless
Roll like a twister, spin across the ground
Who cares about fences, we'll just tear 'em down
Can't hold us in
Instead of sitting like two birds on a wire
Let's sail away on a wave of desire
Get wrapped up in the wind
Girl, get crazy again
Let's get reckless, reckless with our hearts
Let's find us some danger in the dark
Slow dance in a hurricane
Play a game of chicken with a fast moving train
Let's make this night an open road
Let's take this as far as it can go
Wild and free, you and me
Reckless
While the wheels are turnin'
The fire is burnin'
Girl, we're already in it
Let's take love to the limit
Yeah, and get reckless, reckless with our hearts
Let's find us some danger in the dark
Wild and free, you and me
Reckless
I'll lead you on
I'll lead you on
She's just so reckless like me
I'll tease you on (and on)
I'll tease you on (and on)
She's just so reckless like me
I'll lead you on (and on)
I'll lead you on (and on)
She's just so reckless like me
You are so (R-E-C-K)
You are so (L-E-S-S)
You are so (R-E-C-K)
You are so (L-E-S-S)
I'll lead you on (and on)
I'll lead you on (and on)
She's just so reckless like me
I'll tease you on (and on)
I'll tease you on (and on)
She's just so reckless like me
You are so (R-E-C-K)
You are so (L-E-S-S)
You are so (R-E-C-K)
You are so (L-E-S-S)
You are so (R-E-C-K)
You are so (L-E-S-S)
You are so (R-E-C-K)
Verse 1
The time has come
We're breaking in
The real world waits
To shed our skin
And our teenage crimes
We'll leave behind
Mistakes we've made
We won't go-
Back for tomorrow when we've got today
We're packing up our sorrow, tomorrow can wait
Say hurray, hurray! For the past we cling to
Today, today! We've got more to sing to
I'm the kid your parents told you not to become
But life's too short to live it in fear of
Chorus
If it's for us, who can be against us?
We are the hope and the future
The promised ones with everything to prove
And with this plan written in our hands
We are the hope and the future
The promised ones with nothing else to lose
Verse 2
This is as good as it gets, your time is of the essence
Day by day, but you're not getting younger
You're on both sides of your fate
But dear, we'll find an escape
Living fast, dying younger- you're not
Not getting younger but it's okay
So hold back your tears darling
All that can wait
Chorus
Bridge
The promised ones, we don't know what to do
(Set your mind and your heart to anything that you do,
take my hand, this is yours, and you've got nothing to
lose)
The promised ones, we don't know what to do
(Set your mind and your heart to anything that you do,
take my hand, this is yours, and you've got nothing to
lose)
The promised ones, we don't know what to do
(Set your mind and your heart to anything that you do,
take my hand, this is yours, you've got your whole life
to-)
Young and we're reckless
Bored and we're selfish
Sick and tired of
Young and we're reckless
Bored and we're selfish
Sick and tired of
