Keep Holding On

Lyrics

[Intro: Elzhi] Waddup doe Feeling a little under the weather today But I had some stuff to get off my chest, you know Now what I'm about to say to y'all I might had never said to the general public So y'all gotta hear me yo, feel me [Verse 1: Elzhi] I know I might sound like I got a cold and I'm sneezin' But I'm grown and I'm breathin', hear the tone in my speakin' Both of my parents gone for a reason Daddy's wrong just for leaving mother moved on and I'm grievin' Now spirits above the stones and the demons She belongs in the teachin' where there's a throne in the kingdom And deep inside my bones I'm believin' that my poems that I'm reading is the songs to my freedom But life can be known as deceivin', what I'm shown isn't pleasin' Makes me wanna throw stones at a deacon in his home when he preaching See that's Satan making my heart cold as a breeze till it's frozen from freezin' Gotta get right, I might not make it over this evenin' 'Cause your time period is shorter than breath going from wheezin' Heard my nigga Tone, he was bleedin' through his clothes It was leakin' from some chromes that was squeezin' Then when I'm all alone I be thinkin' I'm against all odds Prayin' to God to show me the evens But I'm sick of being poor through the seasons Smoking dro through the drinking with two hoes through the weekend Bout to go till I see [Chorus: Melanie Rutherford] Life can sometimes be so hard to bare When you feel like there's no one who cares There are times you feel all hope is gone Don't lose faith and just keep holding on and on and on Keep holding on and on and on [Verse 2: T3] But sometimes I feel alone in these streets It gets cold in these streets, my heart and soul on these streets I lost my mom so I hold to a piece of a place Of a time when we both intertwined It was love for a fatherless son Although he had love for a son visits were none to seldom I would sit on a porch till the mail come And when it came there never was a letter with my name But mom's was there for me, she held it down cause she cared for me She never left even in her last path where she slept Next to death she was always at her best, never stressed That's why I love her [Chorus: Melanie Rutherford] Life can sometimes be so hard to bare When you feel like there's no one who cares There are times you feel all hope is gone Don't lose faith and just keep holding on and on and on Keep holding on and on and on [Bridge: Slum Village & Melanie Rutherford] You gotta keep holding on, you gotta keep, keep holding on, keep holding on Just keep holding on, you gotta keep, keep holding on, keep holding on yo Keep holding on, you gotta keep, keep holding on, keep holding on [Chorus: Melanie Rutherford] Life can sometimes be so hard to bare When you feel like there's no one who cares There are times you feel all hope is gone Don't lose faith and just keep holding on and on and on Keep holding on and on and on
