Delaney Baker - Hold Up lyrics

[Verse 1] Now pay attention to me mayne Y'all lucky that I'm not hungry today I could put your favorite rapper on my plate But I would be starvin' an hour later Cuz nowadays is music lackin' substance? Is this the best that we come up with million dollar budgets? If you trying to hear the dope truth I got the plug then Get connected to source, I'm shinin' cuz I'm plugged in Hold up, wait a minute Boy you got me messed up! If you think that I'mma sell my soul to write a check off I'm just tryna write a verse so sick you need a check up And tell the homie God is real, so boy you keep your head up! This that motivation you gon need At the table with our enemies Napkin round my neck, and we gon' eat It ain't nothing you can do to me I was blind but I see now Lot of people tryna shut us down But I do it for the Kingdom now This redemption He gon hold us down! [Chorus] I say hold up I been on my business Talkin' true like I'm in church, now tell me can I get a witness? I say hold up What you see is what you get And on the real I know they feel it Cuz I've always been authentic I say hold up You could never hold us If you think that we gon fold up Then I guess you do not know us I say hold up You might have to get me going out Cuz when I'm in it bro you know my teammates with me I say hold up [Verse 2] I thought I heard you tell me I had to sell out (I'm not for sale) But I'm still being me on stage at a sell out What's the point of being famous if I can't be the person that I was made to be? Shining the light of the Lord and a hundred percent Minor? That's okay to me I came up from nothing, I'm leaving with nothing 2000 like Kobe, I shoot at the buzzer That negative wave, end the discussion k** all the hate and not leavin for budgets And whatever calls, so I gotta ball, what you tryin to say? I call that bull, and it's Michael Jordan, watch it fade away Money and power, money and power So infatuated, with this Money and power, money and power You can't take it with you homie Don't you let it k** you homie You know I feel you homie Let's keep it real homie Can I keep it real homie? Some of us not living life we just breathin to d**h Knock on the world in your life time then tell me what's left One legacy, when I die will y'all still remember me? I just pray that I'm real as real could be Show y'all what reflect greatness means Til then boy [Chorus] I say hold up I been on my business Talkin true like I'm in church now tell me can I get a witness? I say hold up What you see is what you get And on the real I know the feeling it Cuz I've always been authentic I say hold up You could never hold us If you think that we gon fold up I guess you do not know us I say hold up You might have to get me going out Cuz when I'm in it bro you know my teammates with me I say hold up [Outro] I say hold up I say hold up I say hold up
