Hold Me Down DMX (Ft. Alicia Keys)

[Intro: Swizz Beatz & DMX]
Oh, the King's back (Back-back-ba-back-back)
Yeah, bounce
Oh, oh (Come on)
Oh, oh (Come on)
Oh, yeah, oh
They don't know, they gon' find out
Time to find out

[Chorus: Alicia Keys & DMX]
Hold me down
Hold me down
Even when the rain falls (Yeah)
Hold me down, oh (This is it, baby)
Hold me down
I'm just so thankful (Uh, yeah, rrr)

[Verse 1: DMX & Alicia Keys]
Everyday it gets darker (Rrr), the road gets longer (Rrr)
My body gets weaker (Rrr), my faith gets stronger (Rrr)
The Devil's working on me hard, because God loves me (Yeah)
As long as I'm in His graces, it's gon' get ugly (Hey)
But, only He can judge mе so
What another motherfucker say don't mattеr (Uh-huh)
So I avoid the chatter (Uh-huh)
That way I ain't gotta splatter with the rat-tat-tatta (Woo)
Watch what you say or you gon' wish you had'a (Yeah)
Check a nigga data (What?)
Ain't nan' nigga badder with the mic than the dog (Uh)
From the right to the wrong (Uh)
Still bite and go hard (Yeah) spaz to the left (Yeah)
And with the last of my breath (Yeah)
I'll beat that ass to death (C'mon!)
