Hold On

Gotsta hold on

[Incomprehensible] happiness
It be times like this, I sit around like this
Minor things for the small change
Any time and any weather
I once was a fool but see they had to free me
See, you must be strong
What will you do?
What will you do?
She hate to see me on tha street and still on my feet
Gotsta hold on
For all my homies in the hood
Ain't never gon' have nothin' 'cuz they be frontin'
I'm trapped for so long
Which life will you choose? Yeah, yeah
Gotta go and die like this
See, I'm thinkin' 'bout when I was younger
Take a life instead
I'm trapped for so long

And Hennessy got me hopin' I could solve 'em
'Cuz after all y'all still my dogs
I had to hustle in the summer
***
[Incomprehensible] happiness
See, every man got his own sin
They want more for dead
We gotta hold on
Gotsta hold on
What tha shooter said?
And just the other night
Big Black, my dog Sparky and Lil Ed
For all my homies in the hood
Even though I'm thugged out
Looked out, started buyin' her things

Tryin' to get the best of me constantly stressin' me
Own somethin', do or ya kids and ya mama

But I'm a always remember y'all
My *** Ronnie, Lil Willie and Fat Fred
You can go wrong, no, no

See, you must be strong

*** his wife in bed
(I been trapped for so long)

Had to step and get my *** together

Nobody wantsta die 'cuz they all bustas and suckaz

No duckin', no fearin' nothin'
Betta yet this *** wish them *** had me
You can go wrong, no, no
I put mo bread on it
She loved how I did wrong for so long and still got by
Some brother tried to take my dogs life
Attempted homicide they outside and ain't gon let 'em ride

We gotta hold on
And it's a awful thang, she ain't even cost a thang
We gotta hold on
See, you must be strong
What will you do?
For all my homies in the hood

Don't wanna talk and ain't gon' let em slide
Cryin' 'bout this, thinkin' why my clicque
You can go wrong, no, no
My baby raised to hate her daddy
And believe me, being a thug, it ain't that easy
We gotta hold on
Which life will you choose? Yeah, yeah
Gotta sacrifice three time for every dime they be wantin'
See, you must be strong
[Incomprehensible] happiness
I'm undercover man but still they ain't respectin' me
We call that thuggin'

What will you do?
Save the drama, young ***

But unlike my old sorry *** father, I tried harder
Whatever's clever and hardly ever never
But don't nobody wanna suffer

You can go wrong, no, no
See, thug money got blood on it
For all my homies in the hood
See, see *** got me copin' wit my problems
Yeah, yeah
My baby mama full of drama tryin' to scar me
I lost a homie in the struggle right
He introduced her to the finer things
Which life will you choose?
[Incomprehensible] happiness
See, big daddy gave her diamond rings
They want war instead
And when ya jump we can still ball

See, everybody wantsa hustle
But don' be thuggin' for nothin'
Hearin' nothin', stayin' rich but buggin'
No time for cryin', had to help my mama
I'm trapped for so long
I left my homies in tha pen and reason being
And had her off the chain

Rather die, open *** or do life for their's
Her mammy playa hate and wishin' that she had me
Plus, it leave residue, boy, I'm tellin' you
