[Intro]
(Hey, hey)
(Hey, hey)

[Verse 1]
You tried to break it off that way
But that'll never do (What?)
So are we just friends?
Or do I gotta pretend like we never knew better?

[Pre-Chorus]
You take, take, take, take, take it off, hate, hate when I'm gone
If you're tired of me, just say it
You take, take, take, take, take it off, hate, hate when I'm gone
If you're tired of me

[Chorus]
That boy acting up, not enough
Told him, "Hold the fort," ayy, what? (Yeah; ayy, yeah, ayy)
That boy acting up, not enough
Told him, "Hold the fort," ayy, what?
Hold the fort, ayy, (Yeah), hold the fort, ayy (Yeah)
Hold the fort, ayy, (Yeah), hold the fort, ayy (What?)
Hold the fort, ayy, (Yeah), hold the fort, ayy (Yeah)
Hold the fort, ayy, hold the fort
[Drop]
You
You, you
If I'm done stand— s-standing
You, you
You
If I'm done stand— stand—

[Verse 2]
Tell me, is it alright? Yeah
Tell me if you got your fight now
You've been trying me, trying me
Daylight and I can't see, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
You take, take, take, take, take it off
Don't hate me when I'm gone, right? Yeah
I said, you take, take, take, take, take it off
Don't hate me when I'm gone, right? Yeah

[Chorus]
That boy acting up, not enough
Told him, "Hold the fort," ayy, what? (Yeah; ayy, yeah, ayy)
That boy acting up, not enough
Told him, "Hold the fort," ayy, what?
Hold the fort, ayy, (Yeah), hold the fort, ayy (Yeah)
Hold the fort, ayy, (Yeah), hold the fort, ayy (What?)
Hold the fort, ayy, (Yeah), hold the fort, ayy (Yeah)
Hold the fort, ayy, hold the fort
[Outro]
If I'm done standing, you—
If I'm done standing down (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
If I'm done standing, you— (Ayy, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
If I'm done standing down
