Get Back
Mr. 3-2 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I could do it over boom bap
Or trap beats
Doesn't really matter I'm a versatile athlete
Hopping over hurdles
I'm popping like the kernel
The recipe is mine
I had to I hide it in my journal
Open up the franchise
Ribbon cut
Hands wide
Front page
Stance wide
Kudos to me
They say sky's the limit
But it's Pluto for me
If you don't believe, then you gonna see
Get back
Get back
Get back
Get back
Get back

Where's your head at?
Get back

Get back
Get back
Where's your head at?
Where's your bread at?
Capesh
I'm ripping off the leash
Spikes around the collar
I'm intolerant to teach
I wasn't good at school
I was sleeping in my seat
I was dreaming 'bout the sequence
I was dreaming bout the beats
8 oh 8
I dreamt I slapped the bass on
When I went to interviews I had to put a face on
Yea I had say some
Sad I had to play dumb
TBA many views, this is not a phase hun
My posse's over passionate
Aaron sent the sample
I don't really wanna ration shit
See I'm going all in that's why the labels called it
If it's not advancing me then know I'm not involved in it
Look again appalling
My beautiful bright fantasy
Only difference is it's coming true
It's that insanity
Never was I planning B

Where's your bread at?
Where's your head at?
