IAMDDB
I hope you know me

'Gain, I'm back again
Come through and I'm coming and I'm back again
I'm back again, I'm back again
Said that I'm not coming then I come through and I'm coming
And I'm back again, 'gain
Do you really,
Do you really want me to come back again? (To come back again)
Yeah

Flow like mullah, I don't give a fuck
I told you I might give it up
They don't know you like me
I'm just being polite, G
And when I tell you I don't know
I know you know, you know I know
I can feel your soul in my soul, cannot go
I can feel the inner sadness in your soul
You know I know, yeah (You know I know)
'Cause I'm back again, yeah ('Cause I'm back again)
I come through and I'm back again (I come through and I'm back again)
Have you still coming and I'm back again
If you never let go you keep coming back, yeah
Yeah, 'cause I'm back again, yeah
Yeah, I'm really back again (I'm really back again)

Yeah, I'm back again
Said that I'm not coming then I come through and I'm coming
And I'm back again, 'gain (Back again, yeah)
Do you really, do you really want me to come back again?
You keep running through my mind
Slowing down my brain (Slowing down my-)
And now we misbehave (And we misbehave)
I misbehave, you know I misbehave, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I keep it G of course
Yeah, IAMDDB
You should've kept it G, yeah




I keep it G, yeah
I keep it G of course, yeah

Overall Meaning

In IAMDDB's song "Back Again", the artist uses her smooth flow to demonstrate her confidence and her ability to always make a strong comeback. The chorus repeats the line "I'm back again" in order to emphasize the theme of the song. Throughout the verse, IAMDDB shows off her lyrical ability as she raps about the knowledge and the instincts she has developed over time, and how they are stronger than anyone else's. She asserts that people who may doubt her abilities do not truly understand her, and she knows what they need before they do.


The second verse of the song speaks directly to a person who has been affected by traumatic events. We can assume that the "you" in this verse refers to anyone who has gone through something difficult that has left them feeling sad or alone. IAMDDB expresses empathy and an intuitive understanding of the other person's emotional state, saying that she feels their sadness within her own soul. She also acknowledges the way that the other person's experience has become a part of them, and their personal story. Despite these heavy themes, the song is ultimately empowering, reflecting IAMDDB's ability to shine in the face of adversity and to always come out triumphant.

SHE HAS WORKED SO HARD DEVELOPING HER CRAFT, IM BACK AGAIN AFTER A FEW YEARS to listen and feel the vibes and energy… timeless 🚫⏰

Steve M

IAMDDB and Kendrick would fit so well on a track together. Loving the jazz vibes. She's so talented and so different its refreshing. Global superstar potential here. We've not had a mega talent come out of manchester in a while so hopefully you blow up

Bria M

man this is beautiful, like a moment alone in the city -- the chill beat, her easy flow, and powerful visuals. DDB doesn't need 800 dogs behind her to come strong...

Kundalini Martin

Im looking at this video and let the music flow trough my body, theres a certain rest on my body when i hear this.
A little bit of sadness & happiness at the same time, this vibe gives me such a chill feeling.
