Hold On Me

[Verse 1]
Used to wake up
Scroll, flex, cheap thrill
New name in my phone
Same ache, same chill
Pockets got thick
But my heart stayed thin
I could buy more things
Couldn't buy out sin
Late nights
Blue lights on my face
Chasing that buzz
Tryna outrun grace
Told my mom, "I'm good
I don't need that faith"
But the bed felt cold
In my favorite place (yeah)
[Chorus]
I was living for me, for the bag, for the pride
Thought I had it all till it all ran dry
Jesus put His holy hand on my life
Now I'm changed, I ain't going back, I ain't going back
I was lost in the dark, every night, every lie
Then He came in the room, opened up my eyes
Now I'm walking with the truth by my side
I'm awake, I ain't going back, I ain't going back (no)
[Verse 2]
Had fame on my mind
Had flame in my cup
Had blame for the world
Never looking up
Every click, every hit
Just feeding that need
But the more I got
Yeah, the less I could breathe
Hit bottom on a Tuesday
Floor met my knees
Tears on my chains
"God, help me, please"
Thought He'd turn away
From the mess I made
But He ran to me fast
When I called His name (Jesus)
[Chorus]
I was living for me, for the bag, for the pride
Thought I had it all till it all ran dry
Jesus put His holy hand on my life
Now I'm changed, I ain't going back, I ain't going back
I was lost in the dark, every night, every lie
Then He came in the room, opened up my eyes
Now I'm walking with the truth by my side
I'm awake, I ain't going back, I ain't going back (yeah)
[Bridge]
Now the phone still ring
But I think twice
Got a cross on my chain
Got a cross in my life
Still tempted by the old
Still hear that call
But His word in my chest
Hit louder than it all (than it all)
[Chorus]
I was living for me, for the bag, for the pride
Thought I had it all till it all ran dry
Jesus put His holy hand on my life
Now I'm changed, I ain't going back, I ain't going back
I was lost in the dark, every night, every lie
Then He came in the room, opened up my eyes
Now I'm walking with the truth by my side
I'm awake, I ain't going back, I ain't going back (hold on me)

rap, Dark melodic trap beat with deep 808s and sparse piano plucks; male vocals sit upfront, half-sung half-rapped. Verses start low and conversational, then build intensity with stacked ad-libs. Chorus hits with wider pads and layered harmonies on the hook, creating a lift from gritty confession to grateful praise. Short reverb, tight delays, and a subtle choir texture in the final hook for a spiritual glow over the street feel.
