Stay Strong Lyrics by Erik Cain

2020

Dont know how you gone fly if you dont ever spread your wings
Want make it to the sky you know it starts out with a leap
You’ll never get on track unless you build a little steam, so
Dont let em hold you down or hold you back from all yo dreams
Just keep yo niggas by your side and at your back cause thats the family
And let nobody think that they can disrespect the team
Can never turn my back cause we grew up together struggling
Im eating then we eating know they’d do the same for me
We working and we hustling know this lifе come with a sacrifice
You gotta pay with blood therе ain't no love up in the streets
Done had a couple soldiers they ain't make it had to pay the price
And I still hold back tears from wishing you still here with me
Been working I been slaving but this money ain't coming quick enough
I tell myself I'll make it just keep working and believe
But the weights and all the pressures hold me down and my back break a bit
And though it weigh me down won't let it take me to my knees
I never fold up under pressure cause secretly I think I love it
Cause it help me build up strength until pretty soon it feel like nothing
Pull a rabbit out a hat it look like nothing into something
Just to show you that I ain't capping so please wait to pass your judgment
And I can tell you holding back, won't you just tell me that you love me
Ain't gotta tell me that you need me, man I just need to know you want me
Need to know you'll never ghost me cause the memories gone haunt
Need to know you'll stick beside me keep me comfy hold me close
But if you dont spread your wings there ain't no telling where you’ll reach
I know the pressures of the world sit on your chest gets hard to breath
They still see me as a slave like I got shackles on my feet
And we Been walking on this road still got some miles until we free
Don't ever lose yo courage please stay strong and just believe
And promise Me you’ll keep on fighting till the world rest at your feet-
And no more will I let you hold me back no I ain't down with that
I shake you off my shoulder bend my knees and take a leap
Gotta tell em just hold on a little longer we gone make it
I know that life sometimes gone try to break you down but just stay strong
I know that better days are coming though it seems that it may take a bit
And though it may get rough lil' baby keep on holding on
And mama starting to break I think the world done slowed her down a bit
Wanna tell her one day its gone be alright for now stay strong
I know you waited your whole life for a lil break and you still waiting
Just have patience we gone make it and it ain't gone take too long
Thats the reason I been grinding everyday I make these songs
Dreaming one day that we can make it let the money mask our problems
Drown our sorrows in the dollars thats why im banking on the psalm
I always knew that I would make it graced into my palms
That just tells you it came out this way cause thats just how its 'spose to be
I let you think you close and but we competing from afar
I learned to just stay strong and stand my ground when they approaching me
Best only choose to step you treat your life with no regard
Don't know how you gone fly if you dont ever spread your wings
Want make it to the sky you know it starts out with a leap
You’ll never get on track unless you build a little steam, so
Dont let em hold you down or hold you back from all yo dreams
Just keep yo niggas by your side and at your back cause thats the family
And let nobody think that they can disrespect the team
Can never turn my back cause we grew up together struggling
So if Im eating then we eating know they’d do the same for me
I hope they'd do the same for me
