[Verse 1]
I lace the truth in gold
No gloss, I let it show
You know I keep it clean
When the room gets mean
Held it down all night
With my hands in the flame
I don't bend for the crowd
I say it just the same
[Pre-Chorus]
PLUR on my sleeve
I don't fold, I don't leave
When the floor shakes hard
I still guard my heart
You can test my name
I come back the same
No tricks, no masks
I live in facts
[Chorus]
PLUR, hold it down
PLUR, hold it down
Real all the way
Real all the way
Hold it down for mine
Hold it down for mine
I keep it true
I keep it true (true)
[Verse 2]
My music man in the back
With the cables and the maps
I watch his sparks fly up
When the whole room snaps
We built this from the dust
From a cracked old dream
He brings the fire on tap
I bring the cold, hard sheen
[Pre-Chorus]
PLUR on my sleeve
I don't fold, I don't leave
When the floor shakes hard
I still guard my heart
You can test my name
I come back the same
No tricks, no masks
I live in facts
[Chorus]
PLUR, hold it down
PLUR, hold it down
Real all the way
Real all the way
Hold it down for mine
Hold it down for mine
I keep it true
I keep it true (true)
[Bridge]
[Breakbeat break]
Twin voice in the smoke
One says fight, one says hope
Steel in the throat
Soft in the glow
If they want a fake
They can keep that line
I was made to stay
Right here, on time
[Final Chorus]
PLUR, hold it down
PLUR, hold it down
Real all the way
Real all the way
Hold it down for mine
Hold it down for mine
I keep it true
I keep it true (true)
PLUR, hold it down
(hold it down)
PLUR, hold it down
(hold it down)
