BOUNCE Lyrics – Aitch

BOUNCE Lyrics Meaning

[Verse 1]
In this verse, Aitch is coming in strong with confidence and attitude. He starts by telling people to act their age and implying that getting “faded” (losing a fight) isn’t just something that happens at the barber but in real life too. The “masquerade” line suggests sneaky or undercover moves, like someone moving through unnoticed. He flexes his wealth and success, saying he’d rather catch a flight than take a loss. The line about snatching a wife before a chain suggests he’s more interested in women than material possessions. Aitch then talks about how effortless rapping is for him, comparing it to something light and easy, like pixie dust. He continues to boast about his luxurious lifestyle, mentioning expensive properties and encounters with women. He also hints at being aggressive when necessary, making it clear he’s not someone to mess with. Overall, this verse is about dominance, confidence, and living life on his own terms.

[Chorus]
The chorus revolves around the word “bounce,” which has multiple meanings—leaving, making moves, or watching something shake. Aitch makes it clear that if the conversation isn’t about money, he’s out. He also talks about commanding attention on stage and at home, showing his influence and confidence. The chorus is catchy and reinforces the theme of power, money, and success.

[Verse 2]
In the second verse, Aitch keeps up the energy, talking about his fast-paced lifestyle. He starts by saying he’s always ready for action, with “ammunition stocked up,” meaning he’s prepared for any challenge. He calls out other rappers, saying they’re outdated while he’s still relevant. Instead of pushing drügs, he attracts women effortlessly. He then brags about his s*xual conquests, making it clear he’s living the life most dream of.

The “M6” reference hints at his travels between Manchester and London, showing how his career has taken him places. He mentions coming from humble beginnings, from driving Volkswagens to now owning Bentleys, proving his hard work paid off. The next few lines focus on wealth and success, talking about making money, doubling profits, and encouraging women to dance for him. He even gets explicit about what he wants from women, showing his carefree and confident attitude.

Aitch then shifts back to flexing, mentioning heavy paychecks and expensive cars, specifically a Maybach. He declares himself the “king of his city,” saying no one can challenge him. He warns people that if they want to compete, they should step up, but he knows he’s already ahead. He ends the verse with a strong statement—people may not like him, but they have no choice but to respect him. This verse reinforces his dominance, success, and untouchable mindset.

[Chorus]
The chorus repeats, emphasizing Aitch’s mindset. He’s all about money, success, and moving forward—if the conversation isn’t about financial gains, he’s leaving. He demands attention and control, whether in a club, on stage, or in his personal life. “Bounce” also plays on the idea of people moving to his music or women dancing. Every time he performs, he makes an impact, and every time he enters a place, he brings energy. The repetition of “bounce” keeps the song lively, reinforcing his dominant and playful attitude. It’s all about making money, having fun, and keeping the momentum going.
