Hold Me Down

I'll take you in long strides, I'll teach you my night rhymes

Deny me just three times, I won't forget the mess or your red face

Just help me to speak slow, grip down my hips when I feel low

My dirt black fathers, I'll find a different way

My dirt black fathers, none of them were saved

But I still yell at the moon

I'm close to making it a song

I'm close to learning where I went wrong

I'm close to learning where I go wrong

Hold me down

Hold me down

I waited for you to see, I wanted for there to be bones in my wood floor

Things unsaid and feelings I'd died for

Just help to speak slow, grip down my hips when I feel low

My dirt black fathers, I'll find a different way

My dirt black fathers, I'll teach them how to pray

But I still yell at the moon

I'm close to making it a song

I'm close to learning where I went wrong

I'm close to learning where I go wrong

Hold me down

Hold me down
