Hold On

Been called a loser when I won
Stood for hours in a welfare line
Been kicked around been black and blue

I've done the best
I've done the best that I can

I climbed the top just to come up short
Always first but finished last
On broken glass I held my ground

I've done the best
I've done the best that I can

When the rain came in
I was drenched to the bone
Through the tidal waves and hurricanes I fought for every last breath
Lay me down on sand and stone, take away my yesterdays

Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on

I walked for miles in borrowed shoes
I stood for hours in a welfare line
Been kicked around, I been black and blue
I've done the best
When all you can do is try

Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Baby, hold on
