Lyrics: Miguelito Calina/Wolfren Rosaroso
Music: Miguelito Calina
Every struggle is a lesson, every loss is a gain,
In this life, full of trials, find joy in the pain.
Grateful for the love that’s been holding me close,
In a world full of chaos, that's what matters the most.
So I'm holding it down with this love and respect,
A heart full of gratitude, what did you expect?
From the roots to the branches, we grow and we thrive.
With love as our anchor, together we…
See I've been wanting to tell you
I didn't know how start
So afraid of the part
So take a look at my heart
I know enough & it pains me
Coz it took this long
I gotta have this moment,
For you to hear me out
(The Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Thank you
Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Baby
way you held me)
Feeling the love you gave me
looked past the times i bombed, you held it through
(oh hear me baby)
All of the times you made me feel like I've never done you wrong, i gotta thank you for holdin it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Thank you
Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Baby
i might seem tough
coz i liked things rough
oh the stupid things i do
feelin like i got it worked out
i was arrogant
like nothing could make me move
but hidden underneath
i hold a hundred pound weight
looming over me
I tried to brush it off but it's shoved so deep
like them cuffs on me
and they cut so deep
want them all to see..
(The way you held me)
Feeling the love you gave me
looked past the times i bombed, you held it through
(oh hear me baby)
All of the times you made me feel like I've never done you wrong, i gotta thank you for holdin it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Thank you
Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Holding it down
Baby
Life make more sense love, if you right here
More direction come, coz you help steer
You bring the answers when it's unclear
So it's plain to see that I want you right here
