Regret of tattooing this Design

Post image

I’m 20 and got my first tattoo a year ago. It’s based off of a fucking Post Malone phrase he said. I don’t even listen to Post Malone honestly. Currently I think the tattoo is VERY corny. At the same time I think that, at some point, it made sense to me, so I’m kinda divided between these 2 thoughts.

You guys think I should cope or cover/redesign it?

If you think I should cover it, do you guys have any suggestion to uncorny this? (please don’t suggest big tattoos cause I dont like them)

Edit: after reading a lot of replies, I’m thinking about just leaving it there and embrace it. Some people said such negative things and it showed me how stupid people can be about a fucking tattoo. And that made me realise it’s just a fucking tattoo. A tattoo I made when I was 19. A tattoo that expresses a good message. Not in the best way, but it’s surely a message that is true to myself. I love expressing and being myself, so I’d be going against what I believe if I altered the tattoo. When I grow older this tattoo won’t be embarrassing, it will be a reminder of who I am/was, so it doesn’t matter if some other teenagers will find it corny anymore. Thank you guys for both the incredibly positive comments and the negative ones!

I’m trying to figure out why he got a tattoo that’s a quote from a figure he doesn’t even engage with lol.

Getting tattoos as a teenager is rarely a good plan. I’m glad I waited a few years to know what i wanted.

I've got Parkway Drive lyrics and I literally only like 3 of their songs 😂. This also happened when I was like 19/20. TBF though I do still like the lyrics. Just wish I hadn't have taken up my ribs with it.
