Wyclef Jean - Hold On Lyrics

[Verse1]
L´union fait la force (yeah)
from the ashes we shall rise (fan fan)
young clef to my country of Haiti

[Chorus]
Hold on, be strong no matter what you´re goin´ throw
you know it´s gonna be ok (ok)
today (today)
even in the earthquakes

[Verse2]
Like I said on BET
from the hood to the projects to the mansion
so you got no excuse stop blaming the recession
go harder for Haiti send a text on your phone
Y E E L E, 5 0 1 5 0 1
every block, every school
dream initiation
say we wanna make it a better place
like Michael Jackson
we don´t wanna see another life lost out there
wish i had talked to them teenagers
with them rpg´s goin´on ahead
with the navy seals i would´ve told them listen better

[Chorus]
Hold on (there´s gotta be a better way),
be strong
no matter what you´re goin´ throw
you know it´s gonna be ok (ok)
today (today)
even in the earthquakes
we gotta hold on (hold on)
be strong (be strong)
know that you don´t think that i can read your palms
but i see the dawn (the dawn)
beyond
you know i can see the sunlight
and if the rain falls dawn
it ain´t nothing but a bless day today
the sun will shine after the rain dries

[Verse3]
Whoever tells that dawn memories live on
I guess
see you at the crossroad
so many cry when we die and they wonder
we´re in the sky
see you at the crossroad
I see you in my dream
that man that can´t see but don´t worry
see you at the crossroad
remember we still a team and I know you can hear me now
see you at the crossroad

[Chorus]

[Verse4]
She wants to know she wanna know how
long I been playin´
as long as momma
as long as my momma she been prayin´
she bought me a guitar
she bought me a guitar at eleven
she ain´t want me be usin´ a mac 11´s
when I sing so when I said daddy was gone ´til november
I knew
I knew that he wouldn´t back in november
cause i could´ve the one in the bank
with the shank
with the park with the ski mask
but my bank is the stage with my 12 gauge
black out

[Chorus]
