Back to Life
Russ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I come back to life
They tryna kill me with their words
But that ain't gonna work, no
I come back to life
Somebody let 'em know
They might have gotten close but
I come back to life, yeah
I come back to life, yeah

They tryna to kill me but they can't do it
I bounce back
To get through it I go through it
No losing, just learning
I'm in Sherman Oaks
I just got back from the German coals
Middle eastern women love me
Put me on a Persian throne
Some people angry they believe I'm too proud
Out here I lose the talk and the arenas too loud
Got a target on my back
That's what's different boy
That's what confidence in tracks
That's what winning does

Pick myself up, watch them all start tweaking
I may not respond but I see y'all sneaking
I ain't for retweets
I see y'all reaching
Damn that's your girl
She'll be here all weekend
Pick myself up, watch them all start tweaking
I may not respond but I see y'all sneaking
I ain't for retweets
I see y'all reaching
Damn that's your girl
She'll be here all weekend

I come back to life
They tryna kill me with their words
But that ain't gonna work, no
I come back to life
Somebody let 'em know
They might have gotten close but
I come back to life, yeah
I come back to life, yeah

They want me to kill myself
But the only thing suicidal
Is the doors of my McLaren
I'm winning, you in denial
My rival is my reflection
While I pursue perfection
I'm using your negativity
Channeling my aggression
Into hits, plaques, shows, they happened
Grateful that I don't get lost in hoes and fashion
This is the bounce back soundtrack
Used to work at Outback
I found rap
What would I be without that?

Pick myself up, watch them all start tweaking
I may not respond but I see y'all sneaking
I ain't for retweets
I see y'all reaching
Damn that's your girl
She'll be here all weekend
Pick myself up, watch them all start tweaking
I may not respond but I see y'all sneaking
I ain't for retweets
I see y'all reaching
Damn that's your girl
She'll be here all weekend

I come back to life
They tryna kill me with their words
But that ain't gonna work, no
I come back to life
Somebody let 'em know
They might have gotten close but




I come back to life, yeah
I come back to life, yeah
