[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
