Hold Me Like a Promise

Intro

oh-oh, falling into velvet, ah

mhm, mhm, mhm (ooh)

Verse

You slide in like midnight satin, slow and sure, yeah

Fingers trace the map of promises, pure and unsure

Soft laugh, broken glass, we learn how to bend

I give you quiet summers, you give me loud amends

Keep the tempo low, let the feeling grow (grow, grow)

Candles in the kitchen, records on the floor

Talk to me in close-up, tell me what you need

I’ll answer with a melody, hush, and then we breathe

Pre-chorus

Take it higher, but not too high, stay in my orbit (stay)

Two breaths apart, we find the right fit (right fit)

You hum, I fold, we make a secret song

Pull me in, pull me in, where I belong

Chorus

Hold me like a promise, hold me like a vow

Hold me like a secret only we know how

Hold me like a promise, hold me like a vow

Hold me like a secret only we know how (ooh)

Hold me like a promise, hold me like a vow

Hold me like a secret only we know how

Verse

(rap) Ayy, check it, lights down, sprint mode, quick code, yuh

Clock hands flickin’, I’m cashin’ every wish the city sold, ayy

Foot on the gas, I’m a beat with teeth, I'm chewin' gold, skrrt

Words clean like water, but my pockets never thirsty though, nah

Check the ledger, we ledger the weather — storm or clear, we steer it (we steer it)

Fast lane, fast plan, fast smile, no fear, we mean it (we mean it)

Count the moments, stack 'em, flip 'em — profit on the feeling

No fake glitter, just real winners, no ceiling, we peel it

Rhymes like razors, cut through the hush, then we heal it (heal it)

Pulse in my visor, keep it tight, keep it real with the deal, kid

Run the night, write the rules, we rewrite the map, ah

Paper trails, secret sales, we don't fold — we adapt, yeah

Flash my name in the skyline, not for fame, for the craft, bruh

Multiply the minutes, compound the love, do the math, huh

We don't stop, we don't stop, we don't stop, we don't stop

We don't stop, we don't stop, we don't stop, we don't stop (let's go)

Speed and tenderness, paradox in the lane, that's art

Fast hands, soft plans, every beat hits the heart (ya)

Bridge

Slow down when the door clicks shut, breathe it in, ah

Your laugh is a compass, don't ask where to begin

Close the world to a whisper, close it to a vow

I stay, you stay, we keep this here, right now

Chorus

Hold me like a promise, hold me like a vow

Hold me like a secret only we know how

Hold me like a promise, hold me like a vow

Hold me like a secret only we know how (ooh)

Hold me like a promise, hold me like a vow

Hold me like a secret only we know how
