Hold On

Hold on

You got this

Don't throw it away

Lear to forgive but don't forget

Even when it feels like the works

Hold on you got this don't throw it away

Make more memories than regrets

If nothing else just live and learn

What if I was talking to the younger me

Way back when I was three

Running up and down the street

Not a thing I'll ever need no shoes up on my feet

Sitting in the puddle causing trouble for my family

I would say "get ready things are about to change"

I would say "hold steady even if you run away"

I would say "nobody knows what you about to face"

I would say "oh buddy hold for a better day"

You got them teachers aw upon your case

Watching it just slip away feeling like it never

And now your feeling like your so deranged

Staring out the window where nobody seems

To know your pain

Help now is on its way God knows what you face

Wipe all the tears away let go of all the hate

This all about to change know there's a better way

Roll with the punches you can hold for a better day

Hold on

You got this

Don't throw it away

Lear to forgive but don't forget

Even when it feels like the works

Hold on you got this don't throw it away

Make more memories than regrets

If nothing else just live and learn

What if I was talking to the younger me

With the shirt clean and some dungarees

Acid washed ripped jeans

Stripe like a bumble bee

Running from the bowies in the hood tryna' come at me

Punch'n up the wall with hall while in mumbling

Shoved in the stall then I fall down stumbling

Crawl to the wall then I have out hustling

Head home where its all fall down crumbling

Wondering wondering anyone loving me?

Yes there is for the kid feeling ugly

Zits on your face and your kicks quite struggling

Helps on its way its gonna change quite suddenly

Screaming at the top of your lungs till its thunderin'

Words pound threw ya head ya angels now bubblin'

Ran out the poor down the street to your cousin nem'

Found out everything you need He had it covered Man

Hold on

You got this

Don't throw it away

Lear to forgive but don't forget

Even when it feels like the works

Hold on you got this don't throw it away

Make more memories than regrets

If nothing else just live and learn

What if I was talking to the younger me

Right around twenty three

Young MC hungry

Head full of dreams got a heart full of ministry

Head full of stream got some art for the industry

Can't find a part just to start in my own space

Too white, too broke, no talent, no name

That's what they said I went my own way

Messing with my head I don't listen to what they gonna say

But I need to be slow to speak

Take time just to breathe it keeps me in perfect peace

And enjoy all the mystery

Learn to shut up dude

Learn how to listen please

And through the darkest of your days

He promises to stay

You gone make it through ok

And this is what I'd say...

Hold on

You got this

Don't throw it away

Lear to forgive but don't forget

Even when it feels like the works

Hold on you got this don't throw it away

Make more memories than regrets

If nothing else just live and learn
