Hold Up
Trails Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Walk through street at night

Oh hold up we are killing some time

Feeling like I’m feeling alright

Oh hold up we are killing some time

Walk through street at night

Oh hold up we are killing some time

Feeling like I’m feeling alright

Oh hold up we are killing some time

On us, on me

Really here with you

Walk through street at night

Oh hold up we are killing some time

(hold up hold up hold up on me)

Feeling like I’m feeling alright

Oh hold up we are killing some time

Walk through street at night

Oh hold up we are killing some time

Feeling like I’m feeling alright

Oh hold up we are killing some time

Really here with you

On me, on us

I know that we really like to worry

We feel everything and we let it sink in

All that I know is the moment is real

That you are right here and the clarity clear

Walk through street at night

Oh hold up we are killing some time





Oh flow now honey got to unwind

Overall Meaning

"Hold Up" by Trails is a chill and laid-back song that depicts the singer and their companion walking aimlessly on the streets at night without any particular destination, enjoying each other's company while relishing the moment. The phrase "hold up" is used in the song as an exclamation to put a pause on time, to make the moment last a little longer than usual. The song focuses on the present moment, emphasizing the importance of enjoying one's present rather than worrying about the future or dwelling on the past. The use of "on me, on us" signifies the intimacy of the moment between the two, which is uninterrupted by external distractions. The line "That you are right here and the clarity clear" speaks volumes about the singer's realization of how precious and clear the moment is, and they do not want to miss out on it.


The song is a perfect depiction of being in the present and enjoying one's present rather than worrying about the future or dwelling on the past. It also highlights the importance of human connection and the pleasure of spending time with someone special, experiencing the moment without any external distractions.

I'll be commenting a new joke/riddle (or something that will make you smile) every time CloudKid uploads!

A police officer stops a car.

Officer: Your driver’s license please.

Driver: l'm really sorry, I forgot.

Officer: At home?

Driver: No, to do it.
