Hold Up

Presence

Verse 1

The world is mine

but it ain't no cakewalk getting signed

getting my chance to shine

who really has my interests in mind

why you shovin' me from behind

every time I decide to sign on the dotted line

without a product

there ain't no sales

if money is divine

then I'm the holy grail

so don't be forgettin' to listen to the rhyme

when the guitar wails

if all else fails

just remember that I'm the stitch

that holds together all this shit

which makes everyone of y'all my bitch

Pre-Chorus

With this kiss

I am your Judas

and I stand with wounded wrist

I'll never make it through this

I twist your cross ninety degrees

I breathe hellfire and boil the seas

satan doesn't exist under the soil and trees

they planted a seed

and made you believe

in a religion based on money and greed

send money please

the church needs all your cheese

so follow my lead

and get on your knees

Chorus

Hold up a minute

don't wanna jump right in it

let me soak this all in

Verse 2

Shut your mouth

don't bring that mouth down south

you'll get your tongue ripped out

this is my house

you wanna be talkin' trash

then keep on walkin' fast

you ain't gonna last

tryin' to pimp like Shaft

you make me laugh

and you smell real bad

I could set you up with a nice warm bath

it's Slim keepin' it thin

don't make come over there and kick your ass

and all that jazz

and all these rhymes

that go buck

like ten dimes

just tryin' to open your eyes wide

so you don't go blind

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

Bridge

Gradually

I begin to see

everything that stands in front of me

cowards facing their insecurities

by attacking me

when I'm down on my knees

stealing my air

when it's hard to breathe

manipulating people

to make them believe

I pity you bitch

you ain't shi
