Hold On Lyrics

They chose to lie to us

Hold on

They should be proud of us

Yeah

They chose to lie to us

Hold on

They chose to lie to us

They should be proud of us

We went through the city with pain on our backs

But we never chose to fuss

They chose to lie to us

They should be proud of us

We went through the city with pain on our backs

But we never chose to fuss

They telling me hold on

But how much longer will I wait

It's been a minute since I ate

Yeah

Hold on

I'm trying to go fix me a plate

But I gotta carry this weight on me

Been a minute been out of the kitchen

Had to remind myself who I'm kidding

Been trying to go step in the business

I'm really out here on a mission

I see my dreams right through the peephole

See the flashing lights, the camera, the people

All I need is enough for the regal

Or enough that is feeding my people

See back in the land, it's a mess

I'm playing my pieces right just like it's chess

Had to stand on my business as facts

Protecting my peace and the rest will attract

Sometimes in life the closest people to you

Them be the ones that don't got your back

But don't you go worry about that

'Cause there's plenty people that's around that you haven't met

Hold on

See most of my buddies, they scarred

They locked behind bars, they calling collect

Hold on

I'm trying to get out of the trap

Put my city on the map and off of my back

Hold on

Hold on

They chose to lie to us

They shouldn't be proud of us

We went through the city with pain on our backs

But we never chose to fuss

They chose to lie to us

They shouldn't be proud of us

We went through the city with pain on our backs

But we never chose to fuss

Too go and go get it, a must

Put my faith in God first and then trust

In the process and know that it's stuck

Ain't no way that I'm giving it up

100 mil in the safe ain't enough

Got to make sure I'm running it up

Fell in love with the hundreds, the bucks

Lately I just don't know who to trust

I put it all on the line

Thank God he's showing the signs

'Cause if it wasn't for the man upstairs

I promised that I'd be blind

Hold on

They chose to lie to us

They shouldn't be proud of us

We went through the city with pain on our backs

But we never chose to fuss

They chose to lie to us

They shouldn't be proud of us

We went through the city with pain on our backs

But we never chose to fuss

Yeah
