Hold up
Green Hypnotic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is your man around?
Then why you tryna say goodbye?
Now wait
Why divide when you can't define
Simple words from my repertoire
You look so fine, that ass so divine
I'm on your profile like it was kik & skout
Though with that attitude, I give you 95
Ok, Look
Wait, Hold up
Now see you got the best of me
Vainquished, I'm on my knees
An L ? I'll give you the script
Give me an ending and Ill gladly read the script
But before you dip
Let me only ask you one thing

Shorty what's the hold up?
You don't want to be mine?
Shorty what's the hold up?
Yo ex is not even around
Shorty what's the hold up?
No, i'm not tryna rush things
Baby I just really want to know

Hold up
Hold up
What's the hold up?

One time for you looking so damn fine
Can I bring you on a date?
Why you look stressed?
Baby don't leave
Why you tryna deviate
My questions
Why-y are you still crying for this guy-y
Wipe them tears off yo' ey-eyes
You already know, that you a pri-ize
So, let it go
Let it go
You don't need that stress
Let it go, let it go
You deserved to be blessed
Why we talking about yo' ex?
We should focus on what's next
Stop tryna get noticed and listen

Shorty what's the hold up?
You don't want to be mine?
Shortly what's the hold up?
Yo ex is not even around
Shorty what's the hold up?
No, i'm not tryna rush things
Baby I just really want to know

Hold up
Hold up
What's the hold up?

Shorty what's the hold up?




Shorty what's the hold up?
Shorty what's the hold up?
