Matt Fine - On Hold

They never wanna see my message leave these walls
Get my dream girl out her drawers
Let my actions do the walk
Sh, listen when i talk
And i ain’t perfect, hella flawed
But one thing i could never be is i could never be a fraud
I never give up just a piece
I end up giving all of me
And pardon me if part of me is hard to read
I like to leave a bit of mystery like nancy drew
And that’s a million dollar pussy that im f***ing too
And you don’t know how to treat a woman and it’s showing through
And i can shut the building down from the vocal booth
And if i’m loading up the bullets then you know i'm gonna shoot
I’m calling out their bullshit, call me stacy king
At 23, i knew i had to go and win some rings
I need a platform like chicago needs a quarterback
They pouring dollars into rappers but won’t see a quarter back
Couldn’t tell a lie, my fans are worth more than that
So effortless, can’t help how these words attack
Ya, i told the last one don’t get too attached
And she got too attached
And she’s still watching me just changed the ‘@’
Real smooth, it’s only hurting you
Ain’t hurting matt
But i guess the thought alone is what’s hurting matt
You know i’m never burning bridges but i ain’t turning back
It’s like every time i call, they don’t call me back

Chorus
They put me on pause
Take me off hold
And if you listening then please pick up the phone
They don’t see what i see in tomorrow
It’s why they always keep my call on hold
They hang me out to dry
Only god knows
Im pacing around the room while i’m on hold
So would you push me through
Take me off hold
Ya, take me off hold

Verse
I dialed up in the industry, they left me on hold for 6 years straight
I wonder how much more shit my ego really can take
I wonder how much more pressure till i really do break
I take my anger out in music
Leaving tracks black and blue
Conversations with my brother like what should i do?
Should i keep pushing through? damn
Ambition’s a blessing and a curse
Back home in chicago couldn’t make they mic work
But like anything, if you keep working it’s gon’ work
Now i'm rapping different flavors gonna make a star burst
Let my haters know first, you couldn’t change my worth
And to the fans and the people who be singing my words
I’m so grateful, and that’s really the truth
This for anyone who called but couldn’t get their call through
And was told to grab a pillow cause they sleeping on you
I know exactly how that feels, we gonna wake em up soon
Another black boy killed in the streets by police
We’ve seen the footage, you and i know he didn’t deserve to bleed
Lawmakers i called but was told
Please leave your name and number after the beep

Chorus
They put me on pause
Take me off hold
And if you listening then please pick up the phone
They don’t see what i see in tomorrow
It’s why they always keep my call on hold
They hang me out to dry
Only god knows
Im pacing around the room while i’m on hold
So would you push me through
Take me off hold
Ya, take me off hold
