Something Got a Hold Songtext
von Big K.R.I.T.

(Something) Yeah
Young Krizzle, 3rd Coast representer
Right now the rap game (Got a hold on me)
But, that′s cool 'cause it′s my movement, you dig?
And if you don't believe in (Somethin')
Then you′ll fall for anything
And that′s the type of shit that (Is botherin' me)
′Cause this industry will get you fucked up, ya dig?
So stay cool and (Whatever it is)
You wanna do with your live nigga, do it
Make sure you can't leave it alone, ′cause I can't
(I can′t leave it alone, no)
300 representer pimpin'


I always knew that it was (Something)
In my heart that got me trippin'
Today, like yesterday it ain′t no different
The struggle (Got a hold on me)
And I can′t breathe nowadays
I wanna leave nowadays
But Lord I'm knowin′ that there's somethin′ (Somethin')
In this music and in my soul

The thought I might not blow
The shit just keeps on (Botherin′ me)
And I don't know how long I can keep on like this
I need a sign so whatever it is (Whatever it is)
I'm meant to do, I need to find it
′Cause the game is addictive and I ain′t gettin' out it
′Cause I can't leave it alone (I can′t leave it alone)
I've tried and I try but they keep callin′ me back
Yeah, they keep callin' me back, because there's somethin′ (Somethin′)
In my music that makes 'em feel me

The sweetest melody sometimes can heal me ′cause
(Got a hold on me)
Like my grandma's hands
When I was younger, warmer than summer
Then I knew it′s somethin' (Somethin′)
That was bigger than the money and the fame
The fact that so many can change keeps (Botherin' me)


Yo, but who am I to judge
Been a while since I did it for the love
But whatever it is (Whatever it is)
I gotta pay for it
Sometimes happiness the only thing I pray for
I can't leave it alone (I can′t leave it alone)
The will to ask questions like
How can George Bush receive blessings

But I′m knowin that there's (Somethin′)
Or somethings that I cannot explain
Forget, forgive the change and the pain (Got a hold on me)
I gotta gun to keep me safe
Sometimes I drink and smoke to get away
Because it's (Somethin′)
That I know ain't right
Pops forgive me but this can′t be life
And it's (Botherin' me)

Because I wanna do better
But this rain seem to pour forever
So whatever it is
I fiend for it, think of it, speak on it
Wish for it, dream of it, and Lord
(I can′t leave it alone, no)
No, I can′t leave it alone

And she said it was somethin' (Somethin′)
That draws her to me and it's meant to be
And you the only one that ever, ever, ever (Got a hold on me)
Yeah, but you ain′t been the same
There was somethin' that made you change

So tell me it was (Somethin′)
Or someone that made you feel good
Or way better than I ever could
The truth is (Is botherin' me)
But I'm cool with it
Just know if it′s over today that you did it
But (Whatever it is)
Don′t let it take you to your grave
Protect yourself from aids, I know you want me to
But I can't (I can′t leave it alone, no)
I knew I couldn't turn this house of ours into a home

And I said there′s somethin' (Somethin′)
That I've done to make you leave
Baby girl why you trippin'? Can′t you see
That you always (Got a hold on me)
And I don′t know what I can say
To make you stay but I know I gotta say (Somethin')

But now and then I get tired
Of you packin your bags and all this drama is (Botherin′ me)
And I don't need it on my mind
Lately you been like this all the time
So whatever it is, you feelin′ guilty 'bout
Go and spit out while you accusin′ me you must be cheatin'
'Cause you can′t (Can′t leave it alone, no)

Why you cryin'?
See you can′t deny it, I always had this feelin' it was somethin′ (Somethin')
That God gave me as a gift, the power to make words fit
I look at the sky, and dream of soarin′ just as high
But as time goes by it always somethin' (Somethin')

That will knock me off my track
Got to get back ′cause time is short
Ay, can you you feel it? (Can you you feel it?)
And I don′t know how long I can keep on like this
I need a sign so whatever it is (Whatever it is)
I gotta pay for it
Sometimes happiness the only thing I pray for
I can't leave it alone (I can′t leave it alone, no)
The will to do better as a man
I can't struggle forever because of somethin′ (Somethin')

It′s always something man (Got a hold)
It's got a hold on me, hah
Real shit for real niggas (Somethin')
Real shit for real people, you know
It keeps bothering me (Botherin′ me)
That people don′t wanna hear no real shit no more
But whatever it is (Whatever it is)
I gotta spit it to get to them, get to they mind
I can't stop ′cause (I can't leave it alone, no)
I gotta spit this message
′Cause I'm about something, hah

Somethin′
Got a hold on me
