Hold You Down (feat. Jennifer Lopez)

Now you've been holding me down
 For such a long time now
 From back then 'till now in my story
 Straight from the hood, you've always been there for me
 And you had my back when they
 Back when everybody said, I wasn't anything
 It was you who had me holdin' on, no matter what was goin' on
 So whatever you need, I got you, yeah
 Reminiscing that 6 train from way back
 Now it's sky blue Phantoms and stretch Maybacks
 Sweepin' them floors in them Bronx apartments
 Mira esta que on that red carpet
 With Pun died, you was the first to call me
 I never told you but you was there for me
 Whatever you need, I'll be there for you, crack, I got you back for real true story
 Now my loyalty, will always be
 With you, if you just promise me
 That you'll stay real just like you are
 'Cause baby you don't have to change, no
 You don't know how much you mean to me
 Whenever you're down, you know that you can lean on me
 No matter the situation, boy, I'm gon' hold you down
 You don't know how much you mean to me
 Whenever you down, you know that you can lean on me
 No matter the situation, girl, I'm gon' hold you down
 2005 Rakim and Jody Watley, why'd she paint such a picture so perfect quite possibly
 The real expression from BX to South Beach
 I'ma always hold you down, girl you can count on me (So remember this whenever I call)
 We go back too far, we've been through it all
 Even though we haven't spoke in so long
 Ain't nothing changed, not a damn thing, baby (Now my loyalty, will always be)
 With you, if you just promise me
 That you'll stay real just like you are
 'Cause baby you don't have to change, no
 You don't know how much you mean to me
 Whenever you down, you know that you can lean on me
 No matter the situation, boy, I'm gon' hold you down
 You don't know how much you mean to me
 Whenever you down, you know that you can lean on me
 No matter the situation, girl, I'm gon' hold you down
 Like green, it's the autumns things will stay
 This industry, yeah, I fought made me this way
 Get between me and J.Lo, I simply stay
 You better off sweepin' leaves, on a windy day (So I don't care about the situation)
 I'ma ride for you if there's a complication
 Every time you had my back and all
 When we were young now you Joe, we crackin' off
 Now my loyalty, will always be
 With you, if you just promise me
 That you'll stay real just like you are
 'Cause baby you don't have to change because
 You don't know how much you mean to me
 Whenever you down, you know that you can lean on me
 No matter the situation, boy, I'm gon' hold you down
 You don't know how much you mean to me
 Whenever you down, you know that you can lean on me
 No matter the situation, I'm gon' hold you down
 You don't know how much you mean to me
 Whenever you down, you know that you can lean on me
 No matter the situation, I'm gon' hold you down
 You don't know how much you mean to me
 Whenever you down, you know that you can lean on me
 No matter the situation, I'm gon' hold you down
 Hold you down
 Down, down
 I'm gonna hold you down
