Hold It Down

(album: Noughty By Nature - 2022)

Aight, look, yo

So I'm with a ting in some council flats
Making squares out of cling while she counts the racks
Used to make her hold the spin, she ain't new to waps
Real bitch, she'll hold it down to the max
I felt it in my gut, I knew something weren't right
I'm looking out the window, all I'm seeing is lights
Dogs and choppers, that's all in sight
Hear them running up the stairs, they're gonna try and come inside
They boomed off the door, telling me "Get on the floor"
Laser to my chest, they came in ready for war
Left the money on the table, but she got rid of the raw
I can't complain, it should be only money laundering for sure
But it's not, its' three shootings, two attempted and a Glock
I'm looking in her face and all I'm seeing is shock
No bail, in court, now I'm on induction wing
Oi gov, pattern, up, where the fuck's my pins? Yo

Would you hold it down for me, girl?
Would you come to the Crown for me, girl?
If I went to jail, took that L, would you tell all your girls
That you still have love for me?
Would you hold it down for me, girl?
Would you come to the Crown for me, girl?
If I went to jail, took that L, would you tell all your girls
That you still have love for me?

Fuck the blue tick, would you have still took the dick?
If the plate was '08, would you have still got in the whip?
If it wasn't in the sticks, would you still come to the crib?
If I was broke like ... would you still wanna have my kid?
If I was down and out, would you still come about?
Would you give them information for a hundred thou'?
Free prints of your tits and some pussy pics
Or instead be in Tape on some hooker shit?
I'm asking these questions, I've got problems with trust
Wanna know if it's love or simply lust
You say I'm too dramatic and I'm causing a fuss
Only moan I wanna hear is when I'm making you buss

Would you hold it down for me, girl?
Would you come to the Crown for me, girl?
If I went to jail, took that L, would you tell all your girls
That you still have love for me?
Would you hold it down for me, girl?
Would you come to the Crown for me, girl?
If I went to jail, took that L, would you tell all your girls
That you still have love for me?
