Back And Forth
Tito Lopez Lyrics

Back and forth, back and forth
Repeating actions over and over again

Left is right, up is down
Everything is contradicting each other

Black is white, the sky is the ground
Everything seems upside down

Kinda living this dichotomy, think about my place
Living with opposing ideas and trying to find where you fit in

Which way I should go, fork in the road
Having to make a decision with two options

I told her just come feel my shit
Inviting someone to experience his music

Soak the game but don't steal my shit
Learning from the industry, but not copying others

Stole my heart and put it on EBay
Someone he loved betrayed him

But until this day she still my bitch
He still has feelings for her despite what she did

I feel I'm rich, really I'm broke
He may look like he has wealth, but he doesn't have much financially

Tears of a clown, him got soaked
He's putting on a facade despite feeling vulnerable and hurt

Really I spoke life on beats
He expresses his emotions and struggles through his music

And label it rap and gave it to the streets
He shares his music with his community

They make this for me, from A list to B
He creates music for himself, and not to please others

We all got to see what's coming
We need to prepare for what's to come

Revolution I feel I'm running
He's pushing for change and fighting for justice

Y'all could bounce but still gotta say something
Even if people leave, they should still speak out about important issues

You don't say nothing, none of y'all goons
If you don't speak out, you're a part of the problem

White folk steal 'cause some of y'all tones
Some white people appropriate black culture because they think it's cool

No, nobody thinking of y'all soon
No one is really paying attention to those who appropriate black culture

And I feel like ain't nobody fuck with me
He feels alone and unsupported

Last case, don't want nobody touching me
He's on edge and doesn't want to be messed with

Big mouth nigga, ain't nobody hushing me
He refuses to be silenced

My pace, nigga, ain't nobody rushing me
He's in control of his own life and won't let anyone rush him

Me, me, maybe, you, it sucks to be
Life is tough for everyone

Fuck this fuck shit and this fuckery
He's fed up with everything going on

The G code just stuck with me
He values loyalty and respect

So now I gotta make it stick with you
He wants others to value those ideals too

Now get the glue, I keep it true
He's sticking to his morals and values

No false in the ghetto, can't lie
Honesty is important in his community

I don't even sing falsetto
He stays true to himself and his style

Ok, this my business, don't meddle
He's in control of his own life and doesn't want interference

Need my chip, call a lil' kido
He needs help from his trusted friends

Want some of that ocean's spray
He wants to escape from his problems

Chasing to chase my ghosts away
He's trying to forget his past traumas

I hope I stay myself, I'mma need y'all help
He wants to stay true to himself and needs support to do so

And I feel like painting a target on my back
He's putting himself in a vulnerable position

Man, if you in the game, all y'all wet
Everyone in the music industry is at risk

Hallmark rep, nice and pretty, pull your cards, light your city
He's exposing the industry for what it is: fake and superficial

Like Vegas with the straight hits when the case bits make you famous
The industry will use any means necessary to make someone famous

With your same bitch, shot me, tryina make this UGLY hell, I don't give a damn
Someone he loved betrayed him and he doesn't care about the consequences

Better shell myself, I sold myself to the motherfucking underworld
He's making sacrifices to stay in the industry

Just to help maintain it under, girl
He's trying to keep control and stay relevant in the industry

Kick even in their underwear, understand what's under there
He's exposing the industry for what it really is

Now some may care, some may not
Some people will listen to his message, while others won't

Some grow cold, some stay hot, but they all found out
People in the industry will eventually learn the truth

My song's like kush, take long strokes, holding out the smoke
His music is like a drug that you need to take your time with

Now breathe out, that's dirty south
He's representing his home and culture

You too many, y'all too clean, got too scared to ask who king
There are too many people trying to be king and not enough people standing up for themselves

I got two rings for your two fronts, now just calm down, don't get so crunk
He has respect, but won't back down from a fight

And this new junk it don't mean shit if you can't feel a thing
New music and trends don't matter if they don't have a real impact

And I'm still in pain
Despite everything, he's still hurting emotionally

My mind go back and forth, back and forth
He's constantly struggling with his own thoughts

Because my mind go back and forth, back and forth
His mind is conflicted

I swear my brain go back and forth, back and forth
His thoughts are constantly changing

Sometimes I feel so back and forth, back and forth
He's sometimes unsure of his decisions

Look in the mirror, I feel so back and forth, back and forth
He's unsure of his own identity and purpose

Sometimes I wake up back and forth, back and forth
He's conflicted and indecisive even in his dreams

Sometimes I think I'm back and forth, back and forth
He's constantly questioning himself and his decisions

Sometimes I live so back and forth, back and forth
His life is full of contradictions and oppositions

Sometimes I think so back and forth, back and forth
He's constantly battling with his own thoughts and emotions

Back and forth, back and forth
Repeating actions over and over again
