Mo Bounce Lyrics

[Verse 1: Shawn Frank]
Now let me kick it on a good foot the throwback flavor
Class is in session in fact it's a sick rap major
A little bit throwback, a toe tapper, you know that
I flow that old soul rap, a dealer that never sold crack
I drop a dime, bag of rhymes and lines that live forever

"The Iceberg" , a native to 40 below weather
So when flow I drop the temp a simple give and go
And when I spit, my saliva turns to snow

Abominable Flowman, I penetrate the block like coke can
Provoke fans come in the motherfucker like Conan
Its the rapping matter solo as the batter swing and chatter halts
And watch the rappers adam's apple splatter

This is Chiraq nigga, decapitate the track
I'm back nigga, what you gonna do with that
Fuck flack nigga, H.M. in all black
Even when the game changes, Shawn Frank adapts, fall back

[Hook]
This is for my homie's in the Naptown (Naptown)
This is for my homie's in the Chi (Chi)
This is for my homie's in the O-Town (O-Town)
This is for my homie's in the sky


[Verse 2: Jovan]
You know we bout to rock the culture
Bring it back with a lyrical attack

Emcee's watch your back, with our styles fresh to def
With that west coast feel but we from the Midwest
Don't play dumb if you really know what I mean
Just admit that my rhymes are the reasons why you fein

Gonna step in the scene with some tricks up my sleeve
Think outside of the box if you want to live this dream

You know I didn't grow up in the hood and smoking the wood
Disciplining my sanity just to make me happy
Stayed in my lane, never, crossing to trap
But I struggled, and this is why I really write raps

So no tripping, no flipping, no flopping, we don't stop
Cause this is our life since we found it: it's hip hop

So put your hands up in the air
And wave em like you just don't care
(come on)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
