“BACKWARDS”, is the 20th track on his lengthy second album of 2019, IMMXRTALISATIXN. It features a hard hitting trap beat, along with many messages to Scar’s opposition. Asking why they’re so “gassed up”, when in reality Scar only sees them making the wrong moves.
[Intro]
Mi nuh waan nobody at all talk to mi right now, yuh hear?
Everyting alright, ready?
(Tokyo Ghoul ad-libs)
Huh?
[Verse 1]
Letting go, all my standards hit the floor
Preaching 'bout the mind I have, but then I lost it in a war
Had to get up, get it back, no remorse inside my core
Late nights, never slack, grinding like a skater pro, yeah, uh
Looking at the top spot in the way, uh
Thinking I can live my life in first place, uh
My future's so bright, I need some Pearly's, uh
Just hit twenty-five, I'm fucking wealthy, uh
Ducking texts, on my own, leaving flexing to the clones
Get the message? Anti-bold, really ready, for the gold
Mind my own and lay low, watching all the pay flow
Risky how my day goes, illest with my layers, uh, yeah
[Chorus]
Why you gassed up? (Uh)
You ain't doing shit, I'm running past ya
Two steps, five, are you moving backwards? (Uh)
Watching every move, I'm fucking flattered, yeah, uh, huh?
Why you gassed up? (Uh)
You ain't doing shit, I'm running past ya
Two steps, five, are you moving backwards? (Uh)
Watching every move, I'm fucking flattered
[Verse 2]
I can see right through, never steal my juice
Focus heals my wounds, now my deals right too
Keep my deep side too, let the least I'd do
All the spots I'm fye, when I see iTunes
[Bridge]
Wait up, and I'm crazy
Going up, oh my days
Going up, fuck you pay me
Going up, I'll never change
Going up, going crazy
Going up, oh my days
Going up, fuck you pay me
Going up, I'll never change, yeah, uh, yeah
[Chorus]
Why you gassed up? (Uh)
You ain't doing shit, I'm running past ya
Two steps, five, are you moving backwards? (Uh)
Watching every move, I'm fucking flattered, yeah, uh, huh?
Why you gassed up? (Uh)
You ain't doing shit, I'm running past ya
What the fuck? Are you moving backwards? (Uh)
Watching every move, I'm fucking flattered
BACKWARDS was produced by Muppy.
No. Though the origin of the word is unclear, the term has been used all around for years. The most notable use of the word was Atlanta rapper Nebu Kiniza’s 2016 breakout single ‘Gassed Up’, though the term goes as far back as to appear in one of Eminem’s bars as ‘B-Rabbit’ on 8 Mile in 2002.
