​​​​​​hold me down

[Verse 1: Noname]
Uh, yeah
I hope you understand, everybody scams
A little Peter Pan paranoia, polygram tell the truth
In the booth, feed the drought
Couple opps bleedin' out real heavy
Cop City, ATL, kill ready
And that's your name, people slow
Incentivize money flow
The government got a hold on everything, love
What if the loved one really don't love love?
Diminish the one love we trust, that's us

[Chorus: Noname, The Voices of Creation & Both]
Any way we get it, we gon' get it for now (Hold mе)
You was with it when benefits was addеd to the account (Hold me down)
I could count on you for a favor for a certain amount (Hold me down)
Hold me down, hold me down
Hold me down, hold me down
Any way we get it, we gon' get it for now (Hold me)
You was with it when benefits was added to the account (Hold me down)
I could count on you for a favor for a certain amount (Hold me down)
Hold me down, hold me down
Hold me down, hold me down
(Somebody pick me up)

[Verse 2: Noname, & The Voices of Creation]
We could scapegoat everything
We could penny-pinch the homie for defendin' the dream
A simpler thing, by any mean, niggas'll kill they team
Say the gun did it, run with it
White man'll front man the whole vision
We just see self in his image
Won't be a self-critic, burn up our whole village
That wasn't us, that was colonialism
We keep our babies fed
We don't beat and rape on our women, we good
We is Wakanda, we Queen Rwanda
First Black president and he the one who bombed us, yeah
Makin' niggas rich, Black billionaire legit
Slave market deficit, rise up, the price up
Escapism is better livin' than this
Better be honest, baby
We better when we admit
We too can cause harm, we really should link arms
They already take arms, a factory, fake farms (Hold me)
They killers, why we help them kill us?
(Hold me down, hold me down)
(Hold me down, hold me down)
(Hold me down, hold me down)

[Chorus: Noname, The Voices of Creation, & Both]
Any way we get it, we gon' get it for now (Hold me)
You was with it when benefits was added to the account (Hold me down)
I could count on you for a favor for a certain amount (Hold me down)
Hold me down, hold me down
Hold me down, hold me down
(Somebody pick me up)

[Outro: Jimetta Rose & The Voices of Creation]
And I depend on you
And I depend on you
Just a little bit
Ah, just a little bit
And I depend on you
And I depend on you
Just a little bit more
Just a little bit
