Songwriter: ​blackbear

Producer: FKi 1st

[Intro]
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh-oh, yeah, oh
Good job, First

[Chorus]
I'ma keep it real as a motherfucker can
If you ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back
Keep it real as a motherfucker can
If you ain't holdin' me down, then you causin' me stress
I don't need that, no
You wasn't there when I'm down, but you there when the check comin', uh
I don't need that
You ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back babe, aye
You ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back baby, oh yeah
You ain't holdin' me down, then you hold–

[Verse 1]
I would know exactly how you feel but we don't talk now
Really in my feelings 'bout how all of this is gone now
Used to hold you naked in my arms, I know you gone now
Everything was right and now it's wrong now
It's how I'm feeling, on God now
Post another snap, you thinking you a big star now
Look at who I follow just to stalk now
Used to be the one that I could call but I just block now
One of many feelings that I block out, it's how I feel, on God now
You wasn't there when I'm down, but you there when the Xans comin'
And I don't need that
You ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back

[Chorus]
I'ma keep it real as a motherfucker can
If you ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back
Keep it real as a motherfucker can
If you ain't holdin' me down, then you causin' me stress
I don't need that, no
You wasn't there when I'm down, but you there when the check comin', uh
I don't need that
You ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back, babe, ayy
You ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back, baby, oh, yeah
You ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back

[Verse 2]
Turnin' everybody head, you know you got the walk down
You a Klondike, you'd do anything for a bar now
Seen you 'round the world, you make the distance seem far now
I'm just another ghost inside a Ghost, it's just a car now
Money isn't everything, it's somethin' that I rock now
What's this shit cost now?
Costing me my peace of mind, this Henny on the rocks now
Soon as money comin', everybody like to flock now
It's how it goes now

[Chorus]
I'ma keep it real as a motherfucker can
If you ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back
Keep it real as a motherfucker can
If you ain't holdin' me down, then you causin' me stress
I don't need that, no
You wasn't there when I'm down, but you there when the check comin', uh
I don't need that
You ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back, babe, ayy
You ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back, baby, oh, yeah
You ain't holdin' me down, then you holdin' me back, babe

​blackbear

blackbear is the stage name of LA-based producer and singer-songwriter Mat Musto, popularly known for co-writing Justin Bieber’s “Boyfriend,” in 2012. Some of his first collaborations were with the likes of Pharrell Williams, MGK, and Childish Gambino. Later, Musto reinvented himself—he coined the name blackbear from a previous EP titled Year of the Blackbear. Under his new name, he started leaning more towards rapping and an R&B-oriented style.

His first mixtape Sex included collaborations with his peers James Blake, Maejor Ali, and “Boyfriend” co-writer Mike Posner. The Afterglow followed in 2014.

In 2015, blackbear released “idfc,” as the lead single from his debut album Deadroses. It increased his fan following and revenue, earning him millions of playback streams and a spot on Billboard’s Uncharted List of Undiscovered and Upcoming Artists. The second single, “90210,” included a feature from G-Eazy—blackbear made an appearance in his 2014 track, “Remember You.”
