HOLD BACK Letra - Jack Harlow

You can be nervous, it's okay

You can be honest, it's alright

We can be sidekicks like it's '08

When I hold your hand like it's '09

Why you so fine, girl? There's no way

I can tell you must think I just wanna paint your face, Cirque du Soleil

And I know, she don't wanna fuck a rapper who’s sought after

Get treated like an afterthought, then it feel like a thought after

Like "Why'd I even do all that for ya?"

What, you worried that you gon' fall for me?

And then I might just fall back, huh?

You say it ain't that

Well, if it ain't that

I got a question, and I'll ask one like

Oh

Why you tryna hold back?

Why you tryna hold back?

When you know you want it just like I do

Why you actin' like that?

Girl, don't do me like that

All I'm tryna do is be next to you

Why you tryna hold back?

Why you tryna hold back?

When you know you want it just like I do

Why you actin' like that?

Girl, don't do me like that

All I'm tryna do is be next to you

There's an invisible force pullin' you away from me, what's the source?

Is it my doin' or is it all yours?

At first, I thought you might just be shy, but I can't tell anymore

Perhaps your last man put you through hell and you'd rather not go through hell anymore

You don't need that shell anymore

Like a nap on the beach, you can rest assured

I'm not tryna get over on you

I might be smart-mouth, but the rest is pure

I'm in no rush for your reservoir

You know you reside in my mind rent-free, and I got one question for you, I'm wonderin'—

Oh, why you tryna hold back?

Why you tryna hold back

When you know you want it just like I do?

Why you actin' like that?

Girl, don't do me like that

All I'm tryna do is get next to you

Why you tryna hold back? (Why you tryna hold back?)

Why you tryna hold back?

Come here, baby

All I want is you

Turn me up, turn me up a little bit

I been waitin' all day for you, can you hurry up a little bit? (Yeah)

Can you show me some love? I think I'm worthy of a little bit

Kiss me, then you pull away just to work me up a little bit
