Lyrics Holding On - Tommy Lee Sparta

I'm holding on
They don't like me
Said they hate me
Said I fell off, nothing could save me
Said my career crashed
Said how my thing fell and, never to rise up
Never could come back
Called me Facety, said I'm crazy
Said I'm lazy, they always amaze me
They've been saying a lot of things about me
They've been chatting a lot of things lately

But I'm holding on, I'm holding on
Tryna' make it through the storm, I'm holding on
I'm holding on, I'm holding on
Yes man ruff, I got to be tough, I got to be strong
(Hmhmm)

Touch the road father God protect my head back
Haters want to see me... and that's not a joke
They don't want to see my money in a stack
They don't want to see me build the house on the hill top
All they do is watch, and try
To mess up my life, still I rise
Father God, know I was born to survive
Some time you have to play fool to be wise
Let me tell you a story about a kid, that never could win
Born in Flankers, never had a thing
Every day he's suffering, every day is the same
Nobody knew his pain
But in his heart was a burning flame
A young wild soldier, that never could be tamed
So they called him crazy, called him insane
Tommy Lee was (was his) name

They never knew he was born a king
Never knew he would rise to fame
Never knew the boy could (could) sing
Never knew he would headline "Sting"
But everything I built, they tried to destroy
They messed up everything I loved and enjoyed
The way this thing would end was never my choice
I wonder if you hear the pain in my voice

I'm holding on, I'm holding on
Tryna' make it through the storm, I'm holding on
I'm holding on, I'm holding on
These streets are rough
I got to be tough, I got to be strong

They don't like me
Said they hate me
Said my career crashed
Said how my thing fell and never rise up
Never could come back
They don't like me
Said they hate me
They called me facety, said, "I'm crazy"
Said, "I'm lazy" they always amaze me

But I'm holding on (said my career crashed)
I'm holding on (nothing could save it)
Tryna make it through the storm, I'm holding on
I'm holding on, I'm holding on
This man is ruff, I got to be tough, I got to be strong

(Said they hate me)
(Said I fell off, nothing could save me)
(Said I'm lazy) said my career crashed
Talked about how my thing fell, and never to rise up
Never could come back
They called me facety, (never could come back)
(Never could come back, never could come back)
Called me facety, said I'm crazy
Said I'm lazy, they always amaze me
They've been saying a lot of things about me
They've been chatting a lot of things lately
But I'm holding on, I'm holding on
(I'm tryna to make it through the storm, I'm holding on)
