[The Alchemist, Prodigy of Mobb Deep, Nina Sky, Illa Ghee - Hold You Down lyrics]
Let's do this shit, ayo
It's like this man, ayo
When it comes to Tecs
I'm similar to a Menace
An O-Dog sniffing 'caine couldn't
Fuck with the damage
That I do to a bastard, keep fuckin' around
Won't be nobody strong enough to
(hold you down) yeah, I leave 'em in shock
Niggas get sentenced to life
They stressed in the box
Most of my friends got murdered
And damn I feel lost
Wish I was there when it popped off to
(hold you down)
Nobody but me, I got a whole gang of niggas
But that's how you gotta think
If you wanna make it alive
And all in one piece
It takes much more than them things to
(hold you down)
Yo, sonny, I'm well connected in the streets
We loyal to each other, when
It comes to that beef, we get
(down) don't worry 'bout a thing my nigga
I foreverly (hold you down)
Even when shit gets hard I'm going to
Make sure that I'm around to hold you (down)
Will never leave your side
Until the day I die, I'm gonna
(hold you down)
Recognize that this game could be hard
Long as you roll with me, we are (down)
Here by your side always to
(hold me down, baby)
When the time is worst
Never leave my fam in a jam, I'm dying first
Never (down) to my last dollar, I'm grinding first
Never take the stand on my fam
I'm silent first it's going down, feel me
The Alchemist in the flesh
And I love this profession
But I'll throw it all away in a second
'Cause I'm (down) for the cause when
My life is threatened
Take this and that, maybe that'll
(hold you down)
Now you know how we cooks the pot up
You could get caught up in some
Things you would not wanna
So slow (down) and watch how I mold the sound
So when I ain't around the music still
(hold you down)
But I'mma keep my eyes open, yo
I don't even blink
Keep my pen moving down the line
I don't even think just write it
(down) on the paper, get my vocals in sync
Check how it sound (hold you down)
Even when shit gets hard I'm going to
Make sure that I'm around to hold you (down)
Will never leave your side
Until the day I die, I'm gonna
(hold you down)
Recognize that this game could be hard
Long as you roll with me, we are (down)
Here by your side always to
(hold me down, baby)
For all my niggas I war for
Blow the 4-4 for, you know I gets (down)
Even if we trapped standing back to back
I'll (hold you down)
No matter if you wrong or right
You still right
For you, I'll lay a nigga (down)
I don't care if it's the president
I cock my shit and (hold you down)
For all y'all bitches in the club
If you hop in my truck
First thing you're gonna go (down)
And when we get to the telly
I'mma bend you over and (hold you down)
Ayo, Mobb Thugs, drops and trucks
We got enough paper to front
You see our guns and duck (down)
Somebody finna get wigged
Homie, I hope your outfitter (hold you down)
I seriously doubt it
My chain cost a quarter mill
Imagine what I spend gun shopping
Got bullets by the thousands
The shots won't never stop
They say that we wilding
And I'm far from recluse
We right on front street with
The fullies in the coupe
For the drama and the shooting
Then I take bullets and die to
(hold you down)
Even when shit gets hard I'm going to
Make sure that I'm around to hold you (down)
Will never leave your side
Until the day I die, I'm gonna
(hold you down)
Recognize that this game could be hard
Long as you roll with me, we are (down)

For a minute")
