Ry x Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
These heavy words, your open heart
Somebody hold my head up
Somebody hold my head up
Ayayayaya, ayayayay
Isn't what we say written in our veins?
Isn't what we make hidden in our ways?
(Ayayayaya)
Come hold my breath and cross my heart
I won't come back and steal your god
Somebody hold my head up
Somebody hold my head up
Ayayayaya, ayayayaya
Isn't what we say written in our veins?
Ayayayaya, ayayayaya
Isn't what we make hidden in our ways?
Ooh (ayayayaya)
(Ayayayaya, ayayayaya)
(Ayayayaya, ayayayaya)
(Ayayayaya, ayayayaya)
Ooh-ooh, ooh
(Ayayayaya, ayayayaya)
Ooh-ooh, ooh
(Ayayayaya, ayayayaya)
Ooh-ooh, ooh
(Ayayayaya, ayayayaya)

The TV shows and movies always play the best music. Thank you Mayans M.C for introducing me to new song

@LIKWID
Kurt Sutter has a big input on soundtrack choice for the series he's involved with. The Shield, Sons Of Anarchy and Mayans have had some of the best pieces of music i've ever heard, they really make the scene complete!
@spinesplitter6868
Same for me bro. Like in one episode of SOA i found Yellawolf "till it"s gone" and from then it is on my playlist
@frankytarantino6470
Yea that Yelawolf song is tough. I listen to his music more than I listen most rap songs these days
Except Eminem. But mostly songs from these shows especially Supernatural, Power,The New Walker Show
