Falz’s song “Hold Something” is a celebratory anthem focused on wealth, success, and the joy of partying. It is an uptempo, dance focused track urging listeners (especially ladies) to move and “hold something” (a popular dance instruction). The song captures the feeling of accomplishment and the high life that comes with it.
(I say, I say)
Falz in the building
Common, ladies and gentlemen
Ladies and gentlemen
Àwọn tèmi l'Ame

My people from Canada
If you are ready
Come and dance for me
Dance for me
Folarin lo'n kọrin
Daddy, mommy, everybody, move for me
'Cause if you shake for me
My baby, roll for me
Maybe I tell you to hold something
M'oni dance for me
Folarin lo'n kọrin
Daddy, mommy, everybody, move for me
'Cause if you shake for me
My baby, roll for me
Maybe I tell you to hold something

When dem tell guys to hold something
They don't stop till it's overflow something
Executive, they own company

So confi, so balling
So chilling, no suffering
Àwọn eléyí mature, old money
