Back and Forth

Man of Renaissance, people want to rent the sauce
Been a boss, paid my dues, but I couldn't defend the cost
Friends are frost, chill with their careers as inspiration
I'm trying to make a splash, fields with too much irrigation
Cannonballed into the water, didn't check the depth
Odds weren't really in my favor, but I kept the bet
Always moved a little quicker, yeah, I leapt some steps
Tried to keep me in check, but I wrecked the net
I don't fret about shit, I make it fall in place
Flushing out deterrents, things and people, yeah, it's all the same
Caught the blame, honestly the guilt had kept me off my pace
Lost the race but covering it up, I've got an honest face
Losses aren't really losses if you understand the causes
I made it through the boos so I could get to the applauses
Implausible, but I made this possible
Consistent with my craft, I see a lot of others stop and go

I ain't stopping
People weren't around when my shit was flopping
Now they come around cause I've got my shit popping
They go so back and forth, back and forth, see them rocking
I ain't stopping
People weren't around when my shit was flopping
Now they come around cause I've got my shit popping
They go so back and forth, I just keep rocking

Rocking like a baby in a cradle
Sleeping on my movements till I'm on an upward angle
I don't care if we were tied, I don't care if we were tangled
If you stood up and walked out, you lost your spot at the table
Willing and able, I just need some lucky bounces
I hop up on the beat, and I give it sixteen ounces
I pound it, sometimes leave myself dumbfounded
Surrounded by doubt, but I find my way around it
Done with biting tongue, coming off as tongue in cheek
Hardly ever speak my mind, but people think I love to speak
Always staying grounded, well aware of what is under feet
But if you keep poking, good luck with trying to plug the leak
Most people lease, they don't wanna commit
They hate their wardrobe, yeah, they're throwing a fit
I've been gearing up for an all-out blitz
I'm running running running and withstanding the hits

I ain't stopping
People weren't around when my shit was flopping
Now they come around cause I've got my shit popping
They go so back and forth, back and forth, see them rocking
I ain't stopping
People weren't around when my shit was flopping
Now they come around cause I've got my shit popping
They go so back and forth, I just keep rocking
