A wake-up call for women dealing with peer pressures and fleeting self-confidence.
“Hold It Down” is a melodic bop about the desire to conform.
Hold it down
I’m off the liquor I hold it down
I’m off the weed and I hold it down
I know my limits & cards got no limits
I handle my business I hold it down
I told her baby just slow it down
She wanna get lit and roll around
She was out partying last weekend
She spent her rent had to hold her down
You entertainment to your friends
If it ain’t bout clubbing don’t want you ‘round I flew her out just to show her ‘round
She don’t know her limits priority trippin’
All them Instagram posts and stories highlights don’t mean nothing She get did up, she get lit up
Then go home it’s back to suffering
Complaining about this and that
I promise it’s always something
You praying for guidance in them tweets Don’t make em’ cloud your judgement You should
Hold it down
I’m off the liquor I hold it down
I’m off the weed and I hold it down
I know my limits & cards got no limits
I handle my business I hold it down Pardon me baby just slow it down
She wanna get lit and roll around
She was out partying last weekend
She spent her rent had ta’ hold her down
You entertainment to your friends
If it ain’t bout clubbin’ don’t want you ‘round
She in the telly she throwing up everything going down
That’s off the azul girl you showing out
Wondering where you at
You ain’t done you just got up and went ordered another round
Running from problems and demons you hiding You just find comfort in twerking and wylin’
You getting older you putting on mileage Chasing the life you missed out on in college Instagram you looking for a come up
Slide in DMs then give them your number
Hoping one day they gon’ save you baby
You just hope they pick you for the summer, But you should
Hold it down
I’m off the liquor I hold it down
I know my limits & cards got no limits
I handle my business I hold it down Pardon me baby just slow it down
She wanna get lit and roll around
She was out partying last weekend
She spent her rent had to hold her down
Didn’t even say good looks for looking out I kept you floating you coulda drowned She booking flights got no money now She don’t know her limits priority trippin’
