[Intro]
Bm
Saved by the bell
This the game plan
Sit back and pay attention
This is how the game's ran
[Verse1]
A
I had to switch up the pace
I had to build up my name (Yuh)
Bm
I had to make up a way
Now they all ridin' my wave (Huh)
Bm
Hooked top of my class
Hidden gems among treasures
Bm
Accumulated these plaques
We wrote a million letters
[Verse 2]
G
Don't you worry about a thing
Come follow our lead now
A
We got you, we got you
Make a faulty move started losing out
Bm
Together the more we get done
Quicker the outcome the sum
*Obstacles hang in the way of the prize together we all going to rise*
G
*Peaking now*
So close to the top
A
I can almost see and reach the clouds
A
This the beginning, let 'em all find out
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm D
Holding onto distant recollections
G A
I've been waiting for this day to play this (so wow oh)
Bm
Been making some changes, had to get it all aligned (Uh, uh)
D
Had to sacrifice my nights to get up on ahead (Uh, uh)
Em
Just hold it in to the end It makes a difference
G
When you started from the bottom and you barely hit the ceiling
3, 2, 1
[Chorus]
Bm
Hold it down
Sit back and watch the team
Hold it down
This isn't on the screens
G
World in my palms, feel the bass
This the contrary
Em F#m
We're weary, we're ready
[Post-Chorus]
Bm
I'm solo
Ain't no secrets now
A
Been on my own
On the brink of geeking out
G
This is the pinnacle
No contradiction, though
Em G A
*We're not ordinary*
Bm
Now let’s get down
[Verse 3]
Bm C
So divine, I had to check if it was real
Bm C
Overdue in time, Catching up with a future self
Bm
Full throttle, full throttle
Gotta make this last forever
A
The motto, this the motto
D
Work hard to make your future better
[Verse 4]
Bm
My heart is bleeding from the pain that I put my own self through
There is no need for introductions or greetings, it's old news
G
I'll admit it, I'll admit it, it was kind of scary
A
I had to bury all my demons like the mortuary
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm D
Holding onto distant recollections
G A
I've been waiting for this day to play this (so wow oh)
Bm
Been making some changes, had to get it all aligned (Uh, uh)
D
Had to sacrifice my nights to get up on ahead (Uh, uh)
Em
Just hold it in to the end It makes a difference
G
When you started from the bottom and you barely hit the ceiling
[Chorus]
Bm
Hold it down
Sit back and watch the team
Hold it down
This isn't on the screens
G
World in my palms, feel the bass
This the contrary
Em F#m
We're weary, we're ready
[Bridge]
Bm
From the start of all time
We all been gifted
You gotta count all of your blessings
To get in frame
G
You riding, I'm guiding
And we will maintain
A F#m Bm
Living in a paradox we all must grip and hold on
[Outro]
Bm
Hold on (Aye, aye, aye, aye)
G
Who's gon' have your back and hold it down when no one is around
Bm
Launch pad
Taking off
3, 2, 1
