Hold It Down
Unleashing Dreams: Mylo Marks' Empowering Anthem - Hold It Down
Lyrics
One time for the mind
Expressing a salute or acknowledgment for the intellect.
Two times for the soul
Saluting the essence or spirit.
Three times and it don't stop
Emphasizing continuity and persistence.
Four times here we go
Indicating readiness or the beginning of a journey.
Remember sittin' in classes not listenin', pennin' some classics
Reflecting on past moments of inattention in classes while creating significant artistic works.
My vision glistenin fantastic, you gotta dream go and grab it
Expressing a vivid and appealing vision, urging to pursue dreams actively.
Time has its limits don't pass it, systemic standards of stagnant
Highlighting the importance of time and the consequences of adhering to stagnant societal norms.
Ninety-five percent of this planet I guess success like a magnet
Suggesting that success is attractive and influential, affecting a large portion of the world's population.
Press turnin' human to plastic and that is not for me
Rejecting the idea of becoming artificial or conforming to societal expectations.
But mom and dad have always said go get a college degree
Acknowledging parental advice to pursue education but expressing a different path.
That ain't my path I'm ripped in half I wish that they could see
Feeling torn between personal aspirations and parental expectations.
God has a plan I understand this vision given to me
Believing in a higher plan and understanding a unique vision.
You could never hold it down
Asserting resilience against challenges and opposition.
We both know, you're cold, it's unlikely
Acknowledging the cold and unlikely nature of the opposition.
Must be crazy to come for my crown
Considering it irrational for others to challenge for supremacy.
Got too many real ones beside me
Having genuine supporters and allies.
I just let the hate fly by me way too high key
Choosing to ignore hate with confidence.
Mistakes I make they really can't define me
Recognizing that mistakes don't define personal identity.
You can reach the sky if you jump
Encouraging the idea that reaching high goals is possible with determination.
You can reach the sky if you jump
Reiterating the possibility of achieving ambitious aspirations.
Know they might wanna hate that's okay
Expecting potential criticism but remaining unaffected.
I ain't lettin' up, if it ain't on yo plate
Continuing relentless effort, focusing only on meaningful pursuits.
Raise the stakes, and then you rev it up
Increasing the level of challenge and intensity.
Preparation meets a situation no such things as luck
Emphasizing the role of preparation in facing life's challenges.
The coal despise the diamond
Comparing the initial undesirability of coal to the eventual value of a diamond.
'Cause its shine and wants to be it
Personifying coal's desire to become a diamond.
What it doesn't realize it's the same just couldn't see it
Pointing out that both coal and diamond share the same essence.
Don't bring the pressure to lesser
Advising to channel pressure towards improvement.
Instead use pressure to better
Encouraging the utilization of pressure for personal development.
The coal gets old and burns away
Highlighting the transient nature of challenges (coal) compared to lasting success (diamond).
But diamonds lastin' forever
Stressing the enduring quality of achievements.
So what's the mark that I'm leavin'
Reflecting on the legacy or impact left behind.
You could never hold it down
Reiterating resilience against challenges and opposition.
We both know, you're cold, it's unlikely
Acknowledging the cold and unlikely nature of the opposition.
Must be crazy to come for my crown
Considering it irrational for others to challenge for supremacy.
Got too many real ones beside me
Having genuine supporters and allies.
I just let the hate fly by me way too high key
Choosing to ignore hate with confidence.
Mistakes I make they really can't define me
Recognizing that mistakes don't define personal identity.
You can reach the sky if you jump
Encouraging the idea that reaching high goals is possible with determination.
You can reach the sky if you jump
Reiterating the possibility of achieving ambitious aspirations.
