Uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh
Uh, uh, uh
Y'all know what this is
This what you need to do, girl
So So Def
(Let me hold you)

I been watchin' you for a minute
Come through here so sweet scented
Your life, girl, you need me in it I'm determined to win it
I know what you need, I know what's wrong
I know how to make it tight
Everything'll be alright if ya (let me hold you)
And introduce you to my world
Introduce you to the better side of life
That you ain't been seein', girl
I'ma show you where it's at
And I'ma show you how to get it
All you got do is be wit' it and (let me hold you)
Down, like a real man's supposed to
I never would've approached you if I ain't have intentions on doin' good
See, dude you wit' is so fooled, to me, girl, you're so cool
And all I'm askin' you to do is (let me hold you)
Down, like a best friend and two homies in the gang
When you cry I wanna feel your pain, no secrets, no games
All excitement, nothin' plain, to keep you happy that's my aim
And all you gotta do, girl, is (let me hold you)

In my arms, in my mind all the time
I wanna keep you right by my side 'til I die
I'm gonna hold you down and make sure everythin' is right wit' you
You can never go wrong if you let me hold you
Down, like a real friend's supposed to
I'm tryna show you the life of somebody like you should be livin'
Oh baby, baby, you can never go wrong if you let me hold you (never)

I'ma keep you up on what's poppin' and shake you fresh to death
When we hit the mall we can ball 'til there's no more left
I know you ain't used to it, but you gon' get used to it
'Cause that's the only way I'ma do it, let me (hold you)
All da homies think I'm trippin' 'cause I got you a pad, but see
They just mad 'cause they ain't get you, they ain't get you
Scorpio is your sign and girl you're so fine
And I would do whatever in no time, no shine (let me hold you)
It's what your comin' with, but I'ma change all that
Rearrange that, put you in the Range, all black
With the rims to match, phone attached, TVs in the back
How you gon' say no to that, huh? (Let me hold you)
Niggas look at me like, "Man, here you go, really 'bout to blow some dough
Ain't nobody did before, so why is you so gung-ho?"
'Cause I believe this was meant to be
I just gotta work at it like a crack addict up in rehab (let me hold you)

In my arms, in my mind all the time
I wanna keep you right by my side 'til I die
I'm gonna hold you down and make sure everythin' is right wit' you
You can never go wrong if you let me hold you
Down, like a real friend's supposed to
I'm tryna show you the life of somebody like you should be livin'
Oh baby, baby, you can never go wrong if you let me hold you

Down-down, around, Atlanta-lanta, f-found
E'rybody know now what I'm tryna do
I say, down-down, around, Atlanta-lanta, f-found
I'm just tryna get you to let me hold you
Down-down, around, Atlanta-lanta, f-found
E'rybody know now what I'm tryna do
I say, down-down, around, Atlanta-lanta, f-found
I'm just tryna get you to let me hold you

In my arms, in my mind all the time
I wanna keep you right by my side 'til I die
I'm gonna hold you down and make sure everythin' is right wit' you
You can never go wrong if you let me hold you
Down, like a real friend's supposed to
I'm tryna show you the life of somebody like you should be livin'
Oh baby, baby, you can never go wrong if you let me hold you (hold you)

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
