Hold Me Down
PM Warson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Waiting time after time
Each time I'm wondering what is mine
Got the part right down to the letter going
Line after line
Well I lose myself again and again
But you know that I'm trying
Are you looking for something else
Make it easy
Don't leave me waiting on the shelf
I wanna know
Trying to find a way to say I don't want your favours
Trying to find a way to say I'm fine'
Got the part right down to the letter going
Line after line
I'll tell you once and I'll tell you twice
And you know I ain't lying
Hold me down yeah
Are you looking for something else
Make it easy
Don't leave me waiting on the shelf
I wanna know
Hold me down yeah
Are you looking for something else
Make it easy
Don't leave me waiting on the shelf
I wanna know
Hold me down yeah
Are you looking for something else
Make it easy
Don't leave me waiting on the shelf
I wanna know
The lyrics of PM Warson's "Hold Me Down" indicate a person who is holding out for something better but is confused about what exactly that is. The person is waiting for this "something better" and wondering if this is the right path because every time the person thinks they have it down, they end up losing themselves again and again. The lyrics suggest that the person hasn't figured out what they want and they are trying to find their own way without any influence from anyone else.
The chorus, "Hold me down yeah, Are you looking for something else, Make it easy, Don't leave me waiting on the shelf, I wanna know," expresses the underlying vulnerability of the person as they request someone to hold them down and not leave them alone. The person is uncertain about what they want, and they need someone to help them figure it out—someone to make it easy for them.
Overall, the song seems to be about seeking guidance and support from others during a period of confusion and lack of direction. It also touches on the idea of not wanting to settle for less than what one is ultimately looking for.

When I hear this come up on the radio and they play this, I crank up the volume to max level every time and sing my heart out, at home or driving.

Beautiful song, amazing guitar, vocals (I also love the slight high pitch/auto-tuny effect I don't know what's it called), it's just perfect! Hugeee fan!
@pmwarson
Thank you. I guarantee there is no auto tune on it though !
@aljustal6554
I think you mean the sound that seems to be microphone distortion on the lead vocals. The vocal track could also have been equalized to take out low frequencies and emphasize the mid-range to make it sound that way.

Wat een lkkr nummer!!!!!
