Hold On (Haiti) lyrics - Wyclef Jean (feat. Mavado)

 [Intro:]

Why you wanna shoot up yuh school today

Why you wanna shoot up yuh school today

Think about it, think about it, thi-thi-thi-think about it

Think about it, think about it


[Chorus: Wyclef Jean (Mavado)]

Hold on, be strong, no matter what you're goin' through

You know it's gon' be OK (OK!) today

Even if the Chiney K sprays


[Verse 1: Wyclef Jean]

Like I said on BET from the hood to the projects to the mansion

So you got no excuse stop blamin' the recession Go hard,

And if you a single mom raisin babies on your own

This one's for you play it as loud as you want

Every block, every school, dream initiation

So build the world make it a better place like Michael Jackson

We don't wanna see another 9-11 happen

Wish I had talked to them teenagers when them RPG's go in

Head on with the navy seals I would've told them there's some better way


[Chorus: Wyclef Jean (Mavado)]

Hold on, be strong, no matter what you're goin' through

You know it's gon' be OK (OK!) today (today)

Even if the Chiney K sprays

We gotta hold on (hold on), be strong (be strong)

I know that you don't think that I can read your palms

But I see the dawn (the dawn) beyond

Beyond I can see the sunlight

And if the rain falls down!

It ain't nothin' but a blessed day today

The sun will shine! After the rain dries!


[Verse 2: Mavado]

To all my thugs that's gone, memories live on, I guess,

See you at the crossroads!

So many cry when we die and they wonder if we're in the sky,

See you at the crossroads!

I see you in my dream, that night, that crime scene, but don't worry,

See you at the crossroads!

Remember we're still a team and I know you can hear me now

See you at the crossroad!


[Chorus: Wyclef Jean (Mavado)]

Hold on, be strong, no matter what you're goin' through

You know it's gon' be OK (OK!) today (today)

Even if the Chiney K sprays

We gotta hold on (hold on), be strong (be strong)

I know that you don't think that I can read your palms

But I see the dawn (the dawn) beyond

Beyond I can see the sunlight

And if the rain falls down!

It ain't nothin' but a blessed day today

The sun will shine! After the rain dries!


[Bridge: Wyclef Jean]

(She wants to know)

She wanna know how long I been playin' (As long as my mama)

As long as my mama she been prayin' (She bought me a guitar)

She bought me a guitar at eleven

She ain't want me be usin' Mac 11's (When I said)

So when I said daddy was gone 'til November

I knew that he wouldn't be back in November

Cause I could've been the one in the bank with a shank

With a pump and a ski mask

But my bank is the stage, my 12 gauge a black act


[Chorus: Wyclef Jean (Mavado)]

Hold on, be strong, no matter what you're goin' through

You know it's gon' be OK (OK!) today (today)

Even if the Chiney K sprays

We gotta hold on (hold on), be strong (be strong)

I know that you don't think that I can read your palms

But I see the dawn (the dawn) beyond

Beyond I can see the sunlight

And if the rain falls down!

It ain't nothin' but a blessed day today

The sun will shine! After the rain dries!

If the rain falls down!

It ain't nothin' but a blessed day today

The sun will shine! After the rain dries!
