Hold up
D-Black Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Expect me, expect me bro
Like you expect Jesus to come back
Expect me brotha, I'm coming
So what were you expecting
I told you I was coming
The Codex In My Bag
Testing one two
Put'em up and I'm toasting to the life that won't stop
Hold em up, lift those glasses up
(Toasting to the life that won't stop)
Hold em up, everlasting love
Put'em up and I'm toasting to the life that won't stop
We ain't talking penny stock
Major markets, investments hot
Future brights, leveled up
And this day is astonishing
My blessings keep coming and everybody is parlaying
Acknowledge the space the means ends to commemorate
Shifting our focus to gain wealth in this resting place
Embellish the essence we are the children of Yahweh
Celebrate a day when all my worries can go away
My worries has sailed away
And now His presence has made His place
And we acknowledge how real it takes
And recognize this for Heaven's sake
Hold em up, lift those glasses up
(Riding to the end, it be me and my bestie)
(Wildin' with a grin, nothing realer neva left me)
Hold em up, everlasting love
(Gone hold em up raise em high, let it spark)
(Anotha everlasting drop)
Hold em up if ya ride for ya people
Hold em up if ya blind as ya creep through
Hold em up if ya grind for a living
Go head and hold em up
Here's a toast to the sequel
One love wonder with his keys
Who gave His life if you believe
In His word, how many sacrifices you even made
With all those bills you done paid
Them double taps being played
False narratives, distractions understanding reality
VR Chatting and lavishly
Phantom touch and it's savagely
But the truth and it saddens me
We all looking for the same
To connect with our future
I wonder what He would say
I wonder what He would say
Wonder what He would say
Probably say that I need you sincere when you pray
I'ma want you to live, I'ma want you to love
I'ma want you to strengthen your relationship with Yah
I'ma want you to love, probably wanna hear from ya
I don't want you in vain or egocentrical
I'ma want you to share, I'ma want you to learn
I'ma want you to magnify how much I love ya
But I'm rapturing love
We been hustlin' and feelin' in
Switchin' up my sentiments
Ain't' bearing nothing it's til the end
My chambers full, and locked in
My purpose is shocking
Can't no man stop him




Always speak the truth when that 808 is knocking
Hold em up, hold em up
