HOLD ON-Syrenity aka reni!
Just barely holdin by my finger tips!Sweat rollin dwn my lips.Ash on my elbows,run my fingers through my cornrolls!Holdin on for u&i!cuz w/o someone i wud die. Holdin on is hard to do,tryin like momma told me to.we'r almost there,i can see the sunlight peekin through the moutain tops,tes i can see it, a lil dot! HOOK: Just holdin,holdin,holdin on by the will&want to survive.Holdin on for wat little life we share.nobody but u&me.Just a lil longer baby,just a lil longer baby! Cuz u,me.we've almost won! WAIT, the battles just begun! verse2:Just when we thought the war was ours,rolls in the higher powers'!Oh no, run,duck,hide they come like theeves in da night!Baby we'r not prepared for da fight.u kno they aint right.They beat us,whipped us,talked us dwn!Just so they cud be da talk of the town.But wat comes around,goes round!Let's hit da underground-rail road.Finishin da stroy never told.Our ppl have waited too long,so tell it through dis song.Holdin on to da great African roots,tears rollin off my boots. HOOK:repeat verse3:Young black boys caught in the hustle-n-bustle of da streets!Steady workin on da mustle & spittin to beats!Life in da ghetto aint no prance in da meadow!Peekin out da window hopein daddy will visit, hasn't come&ur trunin dubble didgets.Gettin older.Witt heart stronger than a bolder.Brother got shot tryin a brush it off ur sholder.Fakein like a big man on da outside,i kno ur cryin on da inside.Ur eyes so wide- wit tears.Momma hopein u learned somehin over da years! HOOK: repeat. verse4:If i wake up tomorrow will my life end?So i live everyday to win.Little SallySue never had to live off of crackers&cheese.Nor little Jenny or Luise. Lil babby''D'' whittnest his brthers death.wasn't there but he felt da pain.& spam was all there was to eat for lil boy wayne.Life will never be the same.It's insaine, feel da hot summer heat run through his vaines.Never belivein in miricales,Grandma always draggin em o chruch.Afterwards u'd run&snatch some ladies pruse!The Ghettostreets never sleep.U just hold ur mother while she weeps.Hold on! HOOK: repeat verse5:Little boy all grown up now,a big man at da age of 17.Still these streets remain mean.U gotta baby momma now.baby needs food,gotta get money some how.so u trun to drugs!Sneek to meet the ''entrepernurers''-thugs!Da same niggaz who had ur boi wrapped up in a rug! If momma knows she'll kick u out!Lil sis knos now,pay ha to shut her mouth.not just da dirty South but my parts-North. Street life tryiin to show em wat ur worth.Three weeks later little jasmine sees her brother die,tore her apart.He was hit by a car,right in da front yard!Now little Reni throws' dwn ha cards,no more play it's so sad lil robies family had to pay.The ''lil ghetto girls'',Reni&Jai rock each other&cry ''lord why''? 30 min. later lil Malachi dnt make it!Daddy dnt kno how to take it! Every body blames them selvels'. Espically lil Syrenity,only twelve. Barried a mother&brother, put my life on a shelf. Now all i can do is hold on&cry for help! HOOK: repeat by-Syrenity Davis
