Rebound
Flosstradamus ft. Elkka Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the darkness I am weakened
I'll soon regret it
I can hear my mind creaking
Try to forget it
Lose control of all my senses
All of a sudden I just relapse
One bye one
And I'll do it again, and I'll do it again
Temptation
And I'll do it again
So we
Rebound hard
Wake up scarred
This is not what we're supposed to do
Rebound hard
Back to the start
Will I always belong to you
This is not what we're supposed to do
Lets say goodbye then I'm leaving
We wont regret it
And for a second I am healing
Try to forget it
With just a touch I'm defenseless
All of a sudden I just relapse
I know I said I wouldn't go back
One bye one
And I'll do it again, and I'll do it again
Temptation
And I'll do it again
So we
Rebound hard
Wake up scarred
This is not what we're supposed to do
Rebound hard
Back to the start
Will I always belong to you
This is not what we're supposed to do
I can run away mixing color with the grey
So I'll hold back, give me time to recover
I can run away pressing pause on your replay
And then I'll do it again
I can run away mixing color with the grey
So I'll hold back, give me time to recover
I can run away pressing pause on your replay
But we go back cause we're bound together
One bye one
And I'll do it again, and I'll do it again
Temptation
And I'll do it again
So we
Rebound hard
Wake up scarred
This is not what we're supposed to do
Rebound hard
Back to the start
Will I always belong to you
This is not what we're supposed to do
The song 'Rebound' by Flosstradamus ft. Elkka is about the struggle of trying to break free from a toxic relationship or cycle of bad decisions, but failing and going back to it repeatedly. The first verse describes feeling weakened and regretful, yet unable to resist temptation and relapsing into old habits. The chorus refers to the consequences of the rebound cycle, waking up scarred and feeling like it's not what they're supposed to do. The second verse portrays trying to break away again, and even for a second feeling the healing power of leaving, yet still being drawn back in.
The lyrics reveal the frustration of the cycle, the desire to break free, and the realization that it may be difficult to avoid going back. The repetitive use of "and I'll do it again" shows that the singer is almost resigned to the fact that they will repeat the same mistakes, despite knowing the harm they cause. The title 'Rebound' suggests that this cycle is a sort of rebound relationship, where one is temporarily unable to move on from a past love.
Overall, 'Rebound' is a poignant song about the difficulty of breaking free from something toxic, and the inner turmoil that comes with it.
