[Intro]
Bounce back, bounce back, bounce back
Bounce back, bounce back, bounce back
Bounce back, bounce back, bounce back
Ohhhhhhh, ohhhhhh
[Verse 1]
Ohh, I'm in my self-mode, self-mode
Made a mixtape off the rhymes on my cell phone
Like I said it's been way too long
I'm a perfectionist, always having doubts for sh** except for this
Even then, I'm worrying bout if they're accepting this
Shouldn't be affected, cause not everyone's affectionate
When you're at the top, they wanna see you hopping off
But if you ain't want no haters, you ain't ever popping off, damn
Can I really expect much from just a couple tweets?
I'm spitting genuine flows on other peoples beats
I don't need a producer to stay lyrical
Plus I hear em say that I'm better than the original (it's true)
And there's another dude that's my age, with my rhymes
Tryna get paid, and get by, saying this is my time
But as I reflect the only one I see, is the one that's in the mirror staring right in front of me, truth
[Pre-Chorus]
So how about that?
Preparing for the worst cause I know I'll bounce back
If you ain't vibing to the beat, then you could bounce back
But I doubt that, n***a I doubt that
[Chorus]
Bounce back if you tryna put a n***a down
Bounce back if I make it and I'm in your town
Bounce back if you saying I should quit now
Blowing up my phone, who's a hypocrite now
[Verse 2]
I'll probably be ridiculed, the laughing stock of my entire school
I'm tryna build a reputation, but not as a fool
Hammer down a couple songs and drill it in their heads?
Or I could just say screw it, cause I'll look like a tool
But as long as I show that I'm really talented
Then they'll see the reason behind me being pa**ionate
Then they'll start to understand and try to be compa**ionate
Couple songs later, now my tapes are in their cabinets
Is it being naive? Or is it confidence
Either way, I'm ready to feel the consequence
The small chance of living a life of opulence
Is worth more than trying to stay anonymous
What if the superstars let all of their fears prevail?
You'll never make it up the scale if you're afraid to fail
The worst is finding out your spot will never be reserved
I guess it's up to me to take what I think I deserve
[Pre-Chorus]
So how about that?
Preparing for the worst cause I know I'll bounce back
If you ain't vibing to the beat, then you could bounce back
But I doubt that, n***a I doubt that
[Chorus]
Bounce back if you tryna put a n***a down
Bounce back if I make it and I'm in your town
Bounce back if you saying I should quit now
Blowing up my phone, who's a hypocrite now
[Verse 3]
So how bout that sh**?
The college kid on scholarship just showed he can spit
Acknowledge it, the authorship, on my flow's intense
I'll take your two cents and take some shots at your expense
They say I'll never make it, I ain't even from the hood
I've never pulled a trigger, I don't think I ever would
But when it comes to rap, if you got it then you got it
If you're ready to demolish even if you're looking polished
I'm tryna go from telling my dad to deposit
To looking in my closet and telling people I got it
If it's a heavy profit, or it's an empty wallet
I did this sh** right for a reason, I never forgot it, truth
Tell me I shouldn't be proving it
Tell me I shouldn't go through with it
Doubts blowing up my mind, n***aaaa
Love for the music is defusing it
So how about that? (huh)
Preparing for the worst cause I know I'll bounce back (huh)
If you ain't vibing to the beat, then you could bounce back
But I doubt that, n***a I doubt that, ah
[Chorus]
Bounce back if you tryna put a n***a down
Bounce back if I make it and I'm in your town
Bounce back if you saying I should quit now
Blowing up my phone, who's a hypocrite now
Bounce back if you tryna put a n***a down
Bounce back if I make it and I'm in your town
Bounce back if you saying I should quit now
Blowing up my phone, who's a hypocrite now
