Erick Rush Hold It Down Lyrics

(Chorus)
I'm Holding It Down (x3), I'm Holding You Down
If you Holding Me Down, Say, "I'm Holding It Down"
I'm Holding It Down (x3)
They showing me love all over town
Cuz no matter where I'm at I hold it down
I'm Holding It Down, Holding It Down
Up in the clouds, But still on the ground
I'm Holding It Down, Holding It Down
I Keepin a hundred, the only amount
I'm Holding It Down (x3)
I'm Holding You Down, If you Holding Me Down
Say "I'm Holding It Down"
I'm Holding It Down..

[Bridge]
I was never taught another way
Ever since I started getting fades
Ever since I started getting waves
Ever since I started getting paid
I was breaking bread on every plate
I made sure we ate, my people would say I was holding it down

[Verse:1]

At Lucky, at IHO, at Rack it went down
I even played ball, I was on the mound pitching out soft
Had me outta bounds, I was a lost one
I'm a black male, that's a target
You ain't gotta feel so awkward
You ain't gotta feel so honoured
I ain't Nun but an artist
I'm just being honest, You can take all this
But I'm still gon hold it down, I promise
I'm Watching the middle east get demolished
And Obamas doin nothin about it
Ain't nobody doin nuthin about it
How come mankind's kind of a downer?
Topped wit lean I don't know if I can handle it
Don't know if I can manage
The struggle is branded, The struggle's commodified
The truth is abandoned, Cuz the truth isn't on a side Theres nothing to glorify
Another day nother homicide
There's a way we can all survive
By holding it down
(Chorus)

[Bridge:2]
I was never taught another way
Ever since I started getting fades
Ever since I started getting waves
Ever since I started getting paid
I was breaking bread on every plate
My niggas did the same, what can I say
We holding it down

[Verse:2]

From the ground up, nothing less around us
Got the reefer kicking like a roundhouse
I been down Since lil bow wow
Never bow down to anything
But I'm tryna get away from everything
My mama asking me bout wedding rings
I told her my mind is on bigger Thingz
Juss lemme get Emma stoned
Looking for Rosetta's Stone
I heard it's in orbit, I got my my propellers on
I Don't know when I'm headed home
Jamming makavelli thru the headphones
Got a couple niggas in the feds gone
Can't even front, a lot of em were dead wrong
But, til I'm dead and wrong
I promised someone I'd enjoy the ride
I promised grandma i'll do more This time
But I don't know if I can override it
There's nothing to glorify, another day nother homicide
There's a way we can all survive, By holding
(Chorus)

[Bridge:2]
I was never taught another way
Ever since I started getting fades
Ever since I started getting waves
Ever since I started getting paid
I was breaking bread on every plate
My niggas did the same, what can I say
We holding it down

(Chorus)
