Hold Me Down Lyrics by Mattakript

2018

Chorus:

Don’t hold me, down, down, down
Hold me down, down, down
Don’t hold me down, down, down
Hold me down, down, down

Verse 1:

This sickness is my prison guard, it just make living hard
Put you in an isolation cell and stare when in the bars
It said to me this life is something really like a Poker game
And if it is I swear to Christ, it has rigged the cards
Cause I’m already ripped apart, laying down a ditch in dark-ness
A mess I’ll just confess I need something to fix my parts
I’m thinking maybe marijuana, a giant a spliff and spark
Thrusted in my chest, and hope that it would lift my heart
But I’m no longer touching drugs, I’m no longer smoking weed
When happy is all wanted and hope to be
And Lord knows, that I may have lost my faith
Still I go to church and look at the roof, to a God I pray
Illnesses in my skull I don’t know if you see them
I’m clueless to their names so I just call them “My demons”
They have the tightest grip on me for certain they’re Hell sent
I need your help for when I tell them, this

Chorus:

Don’t hold me, down, down, down
Hold me down, down, down
Don’t hold me down, down, down
Hold me down, down, down
Hold me

Verse 2:

Man I thought I had it sorted out, now what’s this all about?
My brain was on a high for a while but it came falling down
I thought i sold my soul to the devil but god kept calling out
Telling me I’m sick and I need to snap out of it
Yo I might act like I’m the shit sometimes, but lately yo it seems
The older I get, the lonelier this world becomes to be
When I see victims of victims, inside the strangers on the street
But I witness my sickness weaken me from my brain to my feet
See I could turn back to drugs but I’d just be claiming defeat
Living life up in a haze dazed out waiting for peace
When I see so clear some days, in what I’m aiming to be
But then I try to spread my wings it puts a cage over me
So when my palms are sweating up my rib cage gets a beating
And feels like a fucking pillows on my face when I’m breathing
But I’m walking around this town I got a straight that I’m keeping
Nobody hears me pleading but I’m screaming

Chorus:

Don’t hold me, down, down, down
Hold me down, down, down
Don’t hold me down, down, down
Hold me down, down, down
Hold me

Bridge:

And I thought you’d help me fly
But you made it clear you don’t want me to rise
So I’ll try to improvise
For the heights you dreamed I’ll take it from your skies

Chorus:

Don’t hold me, down, down, down
Hold me down, down, down
Don’t hold me down, down, down
Hold me down, down, down
Hold me
