Hold On

Been up, been down
Been in, been out
I thought I knew all about life
All about life
Then I realized

Life never promised you, no bag of roses
Love never promised you, no Benz and roses
The more you live, the more you learn
Not to leave yourself open
Try not to talk 'til it's your turn
When you think that you're certain, ya

Hold on
Don't let another man push you off stance just
Hold on
Nuh bodda front if you know you can't diss just
Hold on
Stand up firm and never get weak, just
Hold on
Oh gosh

Now if you're not quick to learn
Then you're going to be a come around
Even your brethrens will
Take you for a run-a-round
The less you know, it won't hurt
These are things to remember
Life is free, you give the word
January to December

Hold on
Don't let another man push you off your stance just
Hold on
Nuh bodda front if you know you can't diss just
Hold on
Stand up firm and never get weak, just
Hold on, yeah

Been up, been down
Been in, been out
I thought I knew all about life
All about life
Then I realized

Life never promised you, no bag of roses
Love never promised you, no Benz and roses
The more you live, the more you learn
Not to leave yourself open
Try not to talk 'til it's your turn
When you think that you're certain, yeah

Hold on
Don't let another man push you off stance just
Hold on
Nuh bodda front if you know you can't diss just
Hold on
Stand up firm and never get weak, just
Hold on
Oh gosh

Hold on
Don't let another man push you off stance just
Hold on
Nuh bodda front if you know you can't diss just
Hold on
Stand up firm and never get weak, just
Hold on
