"Hold Me Back"

[Intro]
I see how these niggas playin’
But I could adapt
These niggas won’t hold me back [x8]
These hoes won’t hold me back
These hoes won’t hold me back
These niggas won’t hold me back
These niggas won’t hold me back

[Verse 1]
I look in my fridge, my sh*t lookin’ scarce
I got a few kids, we need some sh*t on the shelf
I get a knock at the door, they say my rent overdue
And while my niggas sell dope and don’t know what else to do
The only thing on my mind, I’m tryin’ to keep on the lights
I call up my slime, I need a kilo tonight
Everything whipped well, I’m eatin’ steak, no more soup
Then I parked the Capri, I went and bought me a Coupe
Everything takes time, but this sh*t came fast
Niggas standin’ in line, they wanna hold me back
I multiplied my hustle, stimulated my mind
Motivated my niggas and we’ll never divide, no

[Hook]
These niggas won’t hold me back [x4]
These hoes won’t hold me back
These hoes wanna hold me back [x3]
Noooo

[Verse 2]
First I got me a Taurus, then I copped me a Lexus
I took over Florida, my connect out of Texas
Then I start sippin’ purple, got my sh*t screwed
When you feedin’ your circle, watch your shipments improve
Fabricate ’bout your fortune, all my fabric’s imported
Fornicate in my fortress, 40k still my mortgage
24k my toilet, all my taxes reported
All my exes deported, shout-out Texas, New Orleans
All these niggas influenced by a hustler’s endurance
I just me the purest, but I need some insurance
Niggas watch who you f*ckin’ just to hate on your b*tches
Niggas breakin’ the rules, niggas facin’ suspicion

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
Momma workin’ three jobs ’til I told her to quit
How we rose from the sewer, funny now I’m the sh*t
Niggas ain’t gettin’ money, but they got an opinion
Had this tech makin’ racket, serve you like you were tennis
Killers ride for that paycheck, AK okay, check
B*tch nigga let’s play chess, yo b*tch next, no latex
These niggas won’t hold me back, told the feds they sold me set
Whip ‘em right and then come right back
Whip-whip-whip ‘em right and then come right back

[Hook x2]

[Verse 4]
P*ssy ass niggas, p*ssy ass niggas
They all p*ssy ass niggas, p*ssy ass niggas
Lookin’ down on these niggas, p*ssy ass niggas
Pushin’ my new Ferrari on these p*ssy ass niggas
P*ssy hoe, p*ssy hoe
She a p*ssy hoe until she give me p*ssy hoe
P*ssy hoe, p*ssy hoe
P*ssy hoe, she a p*ssy hoe

Buuuuuuuut from the very begining, he didn't hide the fact that he wanted to shoot the video in the slums...plus for a country where almost half of its people live below the poverty line, how is this not a near accurate report? These Nairalanders wan hold the truth back...

no surprises here. foreign artist who shoot videos in nigeria and africa in general always shoot in the worst areas of city, or they shoot from villages...i guess they feel it makes it more authentic and gives it that 'african' look.

People use your Brains, the Banned US version was shot in the slums, would it make sense if went to Banana Island to shoot a replacement for a Video shot in the Slums, Common!! Even the lyrics go with the Slum setting!

A bullshit video... a hustler trying to make money from 'hustle environment' most people hope to escape like he did... Get back to the ghettos, then make money from their poverty... Exploitation.. simple..

LMAO!! grin grin When he was giving out "bags of groceries" in the lagos slum people were commending him, praising him here and

there saying he is the man. Now the same people are insulting him saying that he could have used a better setting for his

video. I mean honestly, what were you guys expecting that he had go to aja, lekki or V.I to go shoot his video?? ?? of

course not!, those places are too "unafrican" .

As bad as it is in nigeria, this video should have at least also portrayed that good stuffs can come out of nigeria. he should have at least combined sites from high brow areas (lekki,Ikoyi etc) and the slum ( which is where he centered on ). Its really unfortunate that rick ross had to only concentrate on the slum.
