about

Hold Me Down is a song about the things or people that we really feel were holding us back. Which is why it is the angriest song on the album!

lyrics

(Verse)
I can you see you lying through your teeth when you talk to me
So shut the fuck up and admit defeat
Nothing but a leech
I'm disgusted by the fucking bull shit that you preach
This time you won't get the best of me
Cause you're tripping over every word you never said
And everything you never did

(Chorus)
Should have thought before you lied to me
You played the victim while you ripped me apart at the seams
Should have left you long ago
Now it's clear to me I am more than you'll ever know

Ever know

(Verse 2)
How does it feel to be the one who lost at their own game
Bear your cross and hold your head in shame
You're never willing to take the blame

I see you leeching and talking shit
All the while you walk with pride
But you're just a fucking parasite
Fuck your lies, fuck everything you stand for
Got no time for your bullshit anymore
So sit the fuck down and wake the fuck up cause this is where it ends

So just admit it you lost
You're a long way from the top
So just admit it you're done
You lost your way, lead me astray
So just admit it you're fucked
After all the shit I did for you
You'll never be the victim and you'll never hold me down

(Chorus)

You'll never watch me burn
You'll never watch me burn
I will never fall
Fuck you, I won't let you hold me down

Don't you try to bring me down, I'll fucking bury you
Never again will you get the best of me

(Last Chrous)
I should have known you'd never change
Eventually, you'd lose your way
I should have known you'd never change
Eventually, you'd lose your way
Fuck you, I won't let you hold me down

Fuck!
