Hold On

(album: The Return Of December 17th - 2013)

I know you tired of being fucked up, ain't you?
You just can't wait for someone to fuck up
Can't seem to catch a break, a lock up, ain't it?
Ain't got no work so all your folks turn to strangers
And niggas keep talking about having patience but the bills ain't waiting
That's something you can say when you got money and food on your plate
That's something you can say when you ain't out here stressing
Sick of sitting in the house but to go out you need a check, don't you?
Seem like all the busters getting the money (lame niggas)
Just falling in their hand, you looking like goddamn
Don't wanna talk to your holster, when you're broke and miss with your confidence
Just ask for something, nigga, that's common sense
But that pride won't let you do that, slipping
If it was her do you think that she would do that? Damn right
Get out the misery boat, nigga, and swim
'Cause you're still free, niggas wish that they was you in penitentiaries

Just hold on, nigga, you gotta hold on
Just hold on, nigga, you gotta hold on
Just keep your faith dawg, just keep your faith
Just keep your faith dawg, just keep your faith
Just hold on, nigga, you gotta hold on
Just hold on, nigga, you gotta hold on
Just keep your faith dawg, just keep your faith
Just keep your faith dawg, just keep your faith

Momma in need of help, you ain't got it to give it
Kids in need of clothes and shoes, what am I supposed to do?
Might just put my face on something
But that can go both ways when you gonna take something
Take the money on the lick, get away and you good
Take the money and get caught, they take you away for good
Now you thinking about the pain you can put on your family
Man, the pain within yourself is too much, you can't handle it
This shit is stress but dawg, I told my young nigga the same, he ain't get the message, though
Put his life in cracker's hand, they thought him a lesson, dawg
That he gonna learn behind that G wall or free fall
But I can't blame a nigga for tryin to feed his people
Sometimes you gotta drop your nuts to get 'em big bucks so shit stuck
Nigga, you don't live the life then you don't know what it feel like
For real

Just hold on, nigga, you gotta hold on
Just hold on, nigga, you gotta hold on
Just keep your faith, dog, just keep your faith
Just keep your faith, dog, just keep your faith
Just hold on, nigga, you gotta hold on
Just hold on, nigga, you gotta hold on
Just keep your faith, dog, just keep your faith
Just keep your faith, dog, just keep your faith
