[Lyric] Held Down Held Back (Reedukay)

[Bridge]
Life been throwing me them curveballs
Been trying to get back up like when I fall
And it ain’t been easy sir no not at all
Feel like my life is on standby bruh that’s a pause
And it feels like I’m drowning and swimming with jaws
Running this marathon and I’ve hit a wall
Devil in my way and he’s trying to stall
No, I’m not perfect I’m working on my flaws

[Chorus]
I’ve been held down yes, I’ve been held back
World try to tell me I’m not good enough
But I’m not believing that hey
I’ve been held down yes, I’ve been held back
Devil always trying to get me
But against God, he ain’t no match hey

[Hook]
Everybody goes through it yeah yeah yeah yeah
Everybody goes through it yeah yeah yeah yeah
[Verse 1]
Problems just being going on and on for me
And I don’t know what these demons what they want from me
I try to choose my words wisely cause I’ll go too deep
Every bar I spit is hard cause my cause ain’t weak
I know that God got me on this road that I’m on
This road that I’m on
I know I’ll make it through lord but why it take so long?
Why it take so long cause
Devil always trying to pull me in that’s a no-no
World telling me I don’t fit in but I’m good though
I believe in me, faith in G.O.D that’s how I roll
Negativity won’t let me be devil leave me alone
If you hearing this song pray for me
Stay by my side Lord never leave
Devil plotting and he’s playing for keeps
Walking with God where the angels be
What I need is for Satan to back back
I’ve worked so hard and I ain’t trying to backtrack

[Bridge]
Life been throwing me them curveballs
Been trying to get back up like when I fall
And it ain’t been easy sir no not at all
Feel like my life is on standby bruh that’s a pause
And it feels like I’m drowning and swimming with jaws
Running this marathon and I’ve hit a wall
Devil in my way and he’s trying to stall
No, I’m not perfect I’m working on my flaws
[Chorus]
I’ve been held down yes, I’ve been held back
World try to tell me I’m not good enough
But I’m not believing that hey
I’ve been held down yes, I’ve been held back
Devil always trying to get me
But against God, he ain’t no match hey

[Hook]
Everybody goes through it yeah yeah yeah yeah
Everybody goes through it yeah yeah yeah yeah

[Verse 2]
God been blessing me as you can see I’ve made it
I ain’t been the same since my momma passed
Hit me so deep it changed me
I just been looking up and asking God when it’s gone stop raining
But I know I cannot stop
I got to take care and raise my babies but it’s crazy like

[Bridge]
Life been throwing me them curveballs
Been trying to get back up like when I fall
And it ain’t been easy sir no not at all
Feel like my life is on standby bruh that’s a pause
And it feels like I’m drowning and swimming with jaws
Running this marathon and I’ve hit a wall
Devil in my way and he’s trying to stall
No, I’m not perfect I’m working on my flaws
[Chorus]
I’ve been held down yes, I’ve been held back
World try to tell me I’m not good enough
But I’m not believing that hey
I’ve been held down yes, I’ve been held back
Devil always trying to get me
But against God, he ain’t no match hey

[Breakdown]
I’ve been held down held back
Curveballs curveballs curveballs
I’ve been held down held back
Curveballs curveballs curveballs

[Verse 3]
Been held down long enough it’s been rough
A little different I’ve been cut I’m built tough
Devil get me while I’m feeling low
Until I call on God yeah and let ‘em know
All the stress and the problems man let ’em go
It was holding me down wouldn’t let me grow
I was really about to drown water in my boat
But in life, we got to smile and push on push on

[Outro]
I’ve been held down held back
Curveballs curveballs curveballs
I’ve been held down held back
Curveballs curveballs curveballs
