Let me hold you down
Down, Down
Let me hold you down
Down, Down

[Verse 1: Soulja Boy]
Uugh uugh
Aye girl why you wear that dress tonight ?
I swear to god it got you looking right (swag)
It's not a problem i can spend the night
It's up to you i can make the flight (swag)
I did you wrong but we can make it right
Don't be scared babe, i dont bite
I call you babe just to be polite
And if you tell me yes then it's a green light
I kiss your body and lick you with ice
I perform you with no stage fright
You say you love me and it's all right
I love you to from the first sight (baby)
My tongue in your mouth like a cavity (aye)
Baby hold me down like gravity (aye)
When we're together it's a masterpiece
But when we're apart it's a tragedy soulja!

[Hook]
Let me hold you down
Down, Down
Let me hold you down
Down, Down

[Verse 2: Soulja Boy]
Babygirl she said she just graduated from vegas
Private jet to Orlando and let us see my acres
She used to be his but i had to take her
Now we courtside watchin the heat play the lakers
Whatever goes up (up) must go down (down)
That's why we in the situation that we here now
Meet me at the altar, girl in your wedding gowns
You can be my queen come and get your crown
Let's turn Atlanta, Georgia into a ghost town
Just me and you standing on the roof
Looking in your eyes telling you nun but the truth
You got a lot of girfriends but they ain't you
They can't play apart or they can't fit your shoe
Ya heard rumors about me but they ain't true
I run my fingers through your hair just like shampoo
I take your first name and go get it tattoo'd

[Hook]
Let me hold you down
Down, Down
Let me hold you down
Down, Down

DeAndre Cortez Way (b. July 28, 1990), better known as his stage name Soulja Boy, is a rapper, producer, and social media influencer born in Chicago, Illinois and raised in Atlanta, Georgia whose debut single “Crank That (Soulja Boy)” hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and would hold that spot for seven non-consecutive weeks.

At 15 years old, Soulja began uploading songs to SoundClick and eventually moved to YouTube and MySpace. By March 2007, he came up with the concept behind “Crank That” and uploaded the song—and a video of its accompanying dance—online. Two months later, in May 2007, “Crank That” started to go viral. He signed to Interscope Records in the same month. By October, his major label debut album Souljaboytellem.com was released and peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard 200. But critics quickly blasted his simplistic lyrics and unorthodox flows, questioning whether or not he’d just be a one-hit wonder.

“Crank That” earned him a Grammy nomination and he would continue to find success with the songs “Kiss Me Thru the Phone”, “Turn My Swag On”, and “Pretty Boy Swag”. He’s released mixtape after mixtape, left Interscope, made noise with rumors of signing with YMCMB and eventually launched own label Stacks on Deck Entertainment.
