[Verse 1]
[Jennifer:]
Now you´ve been holding me down
For such a long time now
From back then
To now in my story
Straight from the hood
You´ve always been there for me
And ya had my back
(When they) Back when everybody said
I wasn´t anything
It was you who had me holdin´ on
No matter what was goin´ on
So no whatever ya need I got you
[Fat Joe:]
Reminiscing that 6 train from way back
Now its sky blue phantoms and stretch may backs
Sweepin´ them floors in them Bronx apartments
Mira esta que on that red carpet
With Pun died you was the first to call me
I never told you but you was there for me
Whatever you need, I´ll be there for you
Crack - I got ya back for real (True story)
[Bridge]
[Jennifer:]
Now my loyalty, will always be
With you, if you just promise me
That you´ll stay real just like you are
´Cause baby you don´t have to change (no)
[Chorus]
[Jennifer:]
You don´t know how much you mean to me
Whenever you down
You know that you can lean on me
No matter the situation
Boy, I´m gon´ hold you down
[Fat Joe:]
You don´t know how much you mean to me
Whenever you down
You know that you can lean on me
No matter the situation
Girl, I´m gon´ hold you down
[Verse 2]
[Fat Joe:]
2005 Rakim and Jody Watley
Why´d she paint such a picture so perfect
Quite possibly
The real expression from BX
To South Beach
I´ma always hold you down, girl
You can count on me
[Jennifer:]
So remember this whenever I call
We go back too far
We´ve been through it all
Even though we haven´t spoke
In so long
Ain´t nothing has changed
Not a damn thing, baby
[Bridge]
[Jennifer:]
Now my loyalty, will always be
With you, if you just promise me
That you´ll stay real just like you are
´Cause baby you don´t have to change because
[Chorus]

Whenever you down
You know that you can lean on me
No matter the situation

[Verse 3]
[Fat Joe:]
Like green, it´s the autumns
Things will stay
This industry, yeah, I fought
Made me this way
Get between me and J.Lo
I simply stay
You better off sweepin´ leaves
On a windy day (no)
[Jennifer:]
So I don´t care about the situation
I´ma ride for you if there´s a complication
Every time you had my back and all
When we were young
Now you Joe, we crackin´ off
[Bridge]
[Jennifer:]
Now my loyalty, will always be
With you, if you just promise me
That you´ll stay real just like you are
´Cause baby you don´t have to change because

Whenever you down
You know that you can lean on me
No matter the situation
