Hold On Tight |
Thought my hopes had died that night |
I saw the future slowly slip away |
Seems we’ve got this great divide |
Self-gain and greed have had their wicked way |
Now, now we’ve go five more years |
And wasted tears won’t wash this stain away |
The days ahead look bleak for some |
The feast for others has begun |
Hold on tight, hold on tight |
Hold on tight to what you’ve got |
Hold on tight, hold on tight |
Hold on tight to what you’ve got |
How I felt despair that night |
Our fears have surfaced once again |
Shame, ashamed at what they’ve done |
By making it a little harder for me and you |
Now I ask what can be done |
Down these crumbling streets |
A wind of change must come |
As I take you in my arms |
We will proudly walk and never run |
Hold on tight, hold on tight |
Hold on tight to what you’ve got |
Hold on tight, hold on tight |
Hold on tight to what you’ve got |
Some have seen it all before |
It wasn’t all that long ago |
They’ve sold us lies, they’ve sold us lies |
Glass houses in the city, retreats at ile des chiens |
Time to get up off our knees |
And work to towards a brighter day |
All the hopes I thought I’d lost that night |
Will give me strength to overcome |
Keep on holding on |
Keep on holding on |
Keep on holding on |
Keep on hold to what you’ve got |
Keep on holding on… |
Hold on tight, hold on tight |
Hold on tight to what you’ve got |
Hold on tight, hold on tight |
Hold on tight to what you’ve got |
