Hold On Lyrics by IDRIS (UK)

Idris Elba Presents mi Mandela

2014

[Verse 1: Thabo]
Tomorrow's another day
There's so much here left to change, change
These walls are just make-belief
They'll cause you to doubt your dreams, dreams
[Chorus: Thabo]
I said hold on, hold on
Hold on, nothing's ever been important
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, nothing's ever been
[Post-Chorus: Thabo]
I've been waiting for you
We've been waiting for you
Have faith in this moment
Stand and show who you are
[Verse 2: Thabo]
When nothing seems positive
Remember you're more than this, this
And no matter the cause of it
This pain is not all there is, is
[Chorus: Thabo]
[Post-Chorus: Thabo]
[Verse 3: George The Poet]
You can't call it faith if you only believe when you're safe
Words depart your mouth and leave it agape
They're not the only ones that need an escape, I know
I know you're sick of the grind, but hold on
You lay one brick at a time
And you're not someone they can shove aside
So I'll see you on the other side
On the other side
Don't cry for your son, you're raising a soldier
He can't learn from the pain till it's over
Your baby girl will be an amazing achiever
Don't cry for her, you're raising a leader
[Bridge: Thabo]
