You keep bumpin' me against the wall

Somebody said, "Fool you better keep on rappin'
Just take the precaution so yo life will be better
You ain't seen bouncin' back
I know you miss 'em so it's time to uplift 'em
You keep bumpin' me against the wall

You ain't eatin' that's when the days feel slow and long
But until you seen me trust
Get back Satan don't bother me
I really be throwin' my words standin' 'em up, and jammin' on the one
I gets meaner, badder, stronger and ferocious
Tell my friends to call me I ain't acceptin' no letters
You keep bumpin' me against the wall
That's when the pain run sharper and deeper
I told them "Look, you better mind yo business
You can't do nothin' about it
You ain't seen bouncin' back

More dramatic than Batman and Robin, ba, na, na, na, na, na

As real as ever, so I hope you proud of me
You keep bumpin' me against the wall
And I'm serious and you ain't never

Done started some trouble and you ain't been out since
Even gone feel it until it hit home

That ain't nobody but Neptunes bammin' on the drum
You ain't seen bouncin' back
And forgot what you was cryin' 'bout
I learned from you just like you learned from me
I tell you the truth so don't lie to me
So if you ain't ready you better get ready
You come up and here and do it again then it's shame on me
But until you seen me trust
But until you seen me trust

And that's the way that it's gotta be
Yeah, I know I let you slide before
You was right in the middle complainin'
Stop that trippin', 'cuz it ain't gon' happen'"
I know that they made you feel strange
But until you seen me trust
But until you seen me trust
Yeah, I know I let you slide before
'Cuz you stuck inside scared watchin' CNN

No matter what happened that's only once it's shame on you
You keep bumpin' me against the wall
You keep bumpin' me against the wall
Change yo' way of thinkin' and keep on livin'"
Sometimes we be gettin' in trouble we ain't gon' see
Swift flip kicks landin' from the tongue
You ain't seen bouncin' back
Coming back mo' fearless, mo' determined to fold the set
Ah, stick ya chest out, keep your chin up
