"Hold Me" lyrics

Hold on close to me
By my side where you're supposed to be (Yeah, white boy made this)
Make it back every time you leave
Because I know it ain't safe in the streets (Look)

When I'm gone, wait for me, get on your knees and pray for me
If I give you my time, just don't show up late for me, I need you
Steady told me lies and you knew I believed you, uh
I had to keep going, I ain't have time to grieve (hold on close to me)

Just hold me, I just need you to hold me
That's all I need from you, I need you
Like, look, I been, I just need somebody to hold me
I been through a lot of shit out here, you feel me?
Like, pray for me, like just hold a nigga down (I need it)

Yeah, back against the motherfucking ropes
Trying not to lose hope, but I might fucking lose hope
Streets cold, I need a coat, he taking drugs for him to cope
He ain't get it at first, but since he got some money, he feel woke
When it's time, you better not freeze up, niggas die when they choke
In my hood, bitch, I'm the hope, in my hood, bitch, I'm the way (way)
Every night I'm praying the feds don't come and pick me up today
I did shit that I can't say, that shit still an open case (grrrh)

Get on my knees and I thank God 'cause every time, He made a way
Made a way for us, hoes ain't fuck with me 'til I got my paper up
Put my pain in this shit from the heart, this shit ain't written
Niggas was getting cut off left and right '
Cause they wasn't spinning when we was spinning, uh
This shit here hit different (for real)
I done came from rats and roaches, now I'm living different (for real)
Hundred on my pendant (gang!)
I used to have cuffs around my wrist and now they glistening (yeah!)
Car used to chirp, but now you hear that bitch hissing (grrrh)

Hold on close to me
By my side where you're supposed to be
When you hear that bitch glisten, nigga)
Make it back every time you leave (Look)

Because I know it ain't safe in the streets (Nigga, my car used
To start, but now when you hear that bitch, that bitch hissing)
Oh God, protect you, Lord (Father, I just wanna thank
You for everything you've done for me, everything)
And my baby (That bitch got a cry to it now, nigga)
If I ever lost you, I'd go crazy, I'd go crazy (Aight, come on)

Look, know my bitch gon' break down if she lose me (she will)
But my life like a movie, (it is) I should be on TV (yeah)
Had to start cutting them niggas off '
Cause them niggas was trying to use me
When I had a good heart, (huh) street nigga, but I'm book smart (yeah)
Rich nigga, more humble than every nigga that you seen around
Every bitch who ain't fuck with me then
I bet you them hoes fuck with me now
And that's a fact, nigga (for real)

Don't give a fuck how long it take, we gon' get back, nigga
Made niggas hate naps like, "Here, bitch, I got them smacked"
And I put fifty on this cap, another thirty for his mans
Twenty for his location, I spent a hundred on revenge
Took out a hundred for my peoples, made sure I hit all they hands
And I still ain't get a fucking thanks yet (nigga)

Go do your research, show me who dissed me and they checked (nigga)
I like shit the rest, show me who the best if I ain't the best
Show me who the fuck harder than me, that's some shit I wanna see
Stressed out so I can barely get some motherfucking sleep
And I'm still holding on (for real), nigga
Yeah, and I'm still holding on, nigga

Make it back every time you leave (uh)
Because I know it ain't safe in the streets

Uh, I ain't gon' let this shit break me, nigga
I can't let it break me, nigga
I got too many people that need me, nigga
Like my kids need me, uh
I gotta go off for them
If I don't go off for no fucking body, I gotta
Go off for my motherfucking kids, nigga, on bro
For real, this shit for real, nigga
I hate the reasons I did this shit (grrrh!)

Oh God, protect you, Lord
And my baby
If I ever lost you, I'd go crazy
