The Comeback Kid
by B.Reith

Album: Now Is Not Forever

V1:
I'm back by popular demand
Well not really, but my optimism's grand
A little success has got me in a jam
I never thought I'd say I got too many fans
You can thank my face for that, I mean wait
Myspace, Facebook, lets face the facts
I'm at the bottom of the charts, but we aiming high

Kind of hard when they still can't say your name right
Took some time away from the game
Came back same thing though times have changed
I'm no longer that dude from that 70's show
Now I'm the guy who's video is in American Eagle
I stay fly like seagulls got hair like the Beatles
Spit truth for the people just call this a sequel

Hook
We get knocked down but we get right back up
Keep on coming back we k-k-keep on coming back for more, there is a fire that burns deep inside us; we're the comeback kids, kids, we're the comeback kids

V2:
Round 2, they're asking what's new
How you gonna come back B what you gonna do?
Took a couple shots to the face from some critics
Can't imagine what they gonna say when they hear this, I'm done trying to fit in, thought about quitting

Can't stop now; we can't afford to give in
Learned my lesson through facing opposition
If life doesn't hurt then we're not really living
So we take punch after punch like
Cassius Clay or Sugar Ray you see
This hard knock life might make my heart break
But you ain't gonna make no quitter out of me
Keep fighting 'til the war is won
Comeback kids lionheart champion let's go

REPEAT Hook

Bridge:
Keep on coming back
K-k-keep on coming back for more

Keep, keep on coming back for more
Keep, keep on back for more, hey, hey 2x

V3:
I'm back, I got a manager now
He's 6'4 black and his name is Cal
If you got a problem you he'll solve it
I got a style they still don't know what to call it
I've been on the grind since L.J. was a Hornet
Way before the days of Chris Paul in New Orleans
Back in the days of M. Jackson and Jordan
I was on that 8-track reel to reel recording
And I still got a pay to get on
Paid my dues yet I still can't pay my loans
Couldn't find a hot beat so I made my own
Couldn't find a hot street so we paved a road

Hey Mr. DJ keep playing my song, while you're at it could you please stop saying my name wrong?
Keep fighting to the break, break of dawn
Comeback kids never quit always stay strong, oh

Hook until end
