Lyrics

I held you down when the lights went low,

When the world said no, I said “go.”

Ten toes deep, I was ten toes strong,

If love a crime, I been right or wrong.

I held you down, never switched my lane,

Through the joy, through the hurt, through the sunshine rain.

Yeah I held you down… yeah I held you down yeah

I was there when your phone stopped ringin’,

When your friends disappeared like smoke in the wind,

Late nights, dreams on E,

I was pourin’ my heart when you barely believed.

I gave you my time, I gave you my soul,

Gave you my jacket when the nights got cold.

I ain’t count favors, I ain’t keep score,

If you was broke, I was rich in hope.

I seen the cracks but I loved the frame,

All of your scars and art in the same

I stayed solid whenever you change

I held you down when the lights went low,

When the world said no, I said “go.”

Ten toes deep, I was ten toes strong,

If love a crime, I been right or wrong.

I held you down, never switched my lane,

Through the joy, through the hurt, through the sunshine rain.

Yeah I held you down… yeah I held you down yeah

I held you down when the lights went low,

When the world said no, I said “go.”

Ten toes deep, I was ten toes strong,

If love a crime, I been right or wrong.

I held you down, never switched my lane,

Through the joy, through the hurt, through the sunshine rain.

Yeah I held you down… yeah I held you down.

Love on my back like a tat that hurt,

Still I wore it proud, yeah I made it work.

Heart too big, had to tuck that pain,

Gave you umbrellas in a hurricane.

I was your calm, you was my storm,

Still I stayed when the weather got warm.

They told me “leave,” I told ‘em “watch,”

Real love don’t come with a stopwatch

I held you down when the lights went low,

When the world said no, I said “go.”

Ten toes deep, I was ten toes strong,

If love a crime, I been right or wrong.

I held you down, never switched my lane,

Through the joy, through the hurt, through the sunshine rain.

Yeah I held you down… yeah I held you down.

I watered seeds you ain’t even plant,

Believed in you more than you ever can

If loyalty had a face, that’s me,

I f I held you down, yeah no receipt.

If you ever look back, just know it’s real,

Everything I gave you, yeah I meant that still.

No regrets, no disguise,

I loved you heavy, that’s no surprise

I held you down when the lights went low,

When the world said no, I said “go.”

Ten toes deep, I was ten toes strong,

If love a crime, I been right or wrong.

I held you down, never switched my lane,

Through the joy, through the hurt, through the sunshine rain.

Yeah I held you down… yeah I held you down yeah
