Hold You Down

Verse 1

（Jen）

Now you been holding me down mm

For such a long time now

From back then to now in my story

Straight from the hood

You′ve always been there for me

And you had my back when they

Back when everybody said I wasn′t anything

It was you that kept me holding on

No matter what was going on

So whatever you need I got you yaa

（Joe）

Reminiscing that 6 train from way back

Now it′s skyblue Phantoms and stretch Maybacks

For sweepin them floors in them Bronx apartments

Mira esta que ta on the red carpet

When Pun died you was the first to call me

I never told you

But you was there for me

Whatever you need I be there for you

Crack I got ya back for real true story

（Jen）

Now my loyalty will always be

With you if you just promise me

That you′ll stay real just like you are

Cuz baby you don′t have to change no

No matter the situation girl I′m gon′ hold you down
