Hold On

[Verse 1]

She lives right there off of Rutledge Avenue

She has a few friends but she only has a few

Her next door neighbor plays his music way too loud

She often complains but they play it anyhow

[Pre-Chorus]

What is a girl supposed to do?

Living alone can have you so confused

But remember now

[Chorus]

It won't be too long, girl

Find out where you belong

When you're feeling afraid and alone

Just remember two words, hold on

[Verse 2]

She works all day to put herself through school

Cause financial aid doesn't seem to cover food, no, no, no, no

Every morning she rides on the bus to make her gains

It's easy to attain but so hard to sustain, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

She's coping with pain of things she left behind

Multiple pressures that cloud her mind

And she feels it, her eyes carry no signs of joy

She's tired of rubbing it all the time

Found independence is not so kind

Life ain't easy, all she needs is a friend

Hold on

[Chorus][x2]

It won't be too long, girl

Find out where you belong

Feeling afraid and alone

Remember two words, hold on
