Dance Floor (Remastered)

I wrote this at 17. A girl I had a crush on laughed at me, so I left the dance early, went home and made a song about it.

It started as my remix of "EVERYBODY," an unreleased Ye and Ty Dolla $ign track. Back then my first verse and my hook were one long verse.

At 18 I came back to it while I was making my project Studio Poetry, and I wanted a full song. I split my verse in two, since the second half always worked better as a chorus. I posted the open verse in the Kyle Beats Discord. A rapper named Happy? (the question mark is part of the name) reached out with a fire verse. It just needed a good mix.

My Studio Poetry version was alright. It became everyone's favorite, and it stayed my most-streamed song, ahead of everything I put out after it. As I got better, that started to hurt. Hearing it called someone's favorite made the rest of my music feel weaker, like I'd wasted the effort I put into my other songs.

So I went back to my song one more time. This is how it always could have sounded. Maybe now, when someone tells me it's their favorite, it'll be easier to hear.
