[Intro]

I can give you that pipe

Knock em down that's a strike

We ain't ever gone fight

We get throwed all night


[Hook]

Hold Me Down, but don't try to hold me back

When they try to kill me, I hope you grab the strap

What you got to offer? Better hope that I lack

I'm just here stating facts

You gone be the one I bring home with?

Or you gone be the one I get on with it?

Or be the one to send me through the motions

Or be the one that’s gone keep me focused


[Verse 1]

They only like what they see above the surface not beneath it

I need a down chick that don't party every weekend

Get you some friends baby- who about something

Not no thirsty hoes trying to get you on the prowl haunting

Maybe, a couple business ventures

Don't take advice from your friend who looking for adventure

I’m too woke don’t nothing get away see

Flexing on me but you know better like Swae Lee

Plenty fish in the sea and I'm aware of that

I love the way you dress in some sweats and a ball cap

LA girl hella spoiled, get it from her mamma

But the baby daddy really be ashamed of the drama

I'm convinced you either broke or a gold digger

Dont come around with pricy purses but ain’t nothing in it

Forgive you for the past, but you showed me character, potential future problem, but I don’t care I might marry you


[Hook]

Hold Me Down, but don't try to hold me back

When they try to kill me, I hope you grab the strap

What you got to offer? Better hope that I lack

I'm just here stating facts

You gone be the one I bring home with?

Or you gone be the one I get on with it?

Or be the one to send me through the motions

Or be the one that’s gone keep me focused


[Verse 2]

I just need me a chick who reduce this stress

And her eye is on me curiosity had left

Yeah, hold it down for her partner

Don’t get bribed on a date with steak and lobster

Had of a dream of a snake, I’m just hoping it ain’t you, hung around look like loose ends, but I had to cut you loose keep your head up, remember, that you fly like a Drone don't get fed up

When I was balling looked at me like a million dollars

Got 99 problems, bitches wouldn’t solve it

But I keep it under wraps, I'm a player do it right

I adjust I can be that nigga for your life

Don’t be trying to use the head, so you can be advantageous

The thought of me hitting hoes will take away your sanity

Baby, I'm a walking price tag

But I love you in that Jag


[Hook]

Hold Me Down, but don't try to hold me back

When they try to kill me, I hope you grab the strap

What you got to offer? Better hope that I lack

I'm just here stating facts

You gone be the one I bring home with?

Or you gone be the one I get on with it?

Or be the one to send me through the motions

Or be the one that’s gone keep me focused
