So down, you've been up for days
(I been there man)
So hold on, hold on
(Yeah, I know what it feels like)
Your start nothing with your ways
(And if you feel lost, I'm on my way)
So hold on, hold on
(Just hold on)
This kid sitting at the train station
Trying to maintain shit
Rain in his face
Crying his brains flipped
He swears to god every fucking
To night that it will change shit
But his grades get worse
And his fights with the same kids
His mother telling him
He needs to smarten his act up
But schools just a place
Where he go to get bashed up
Self esteem smashed up
Brutally battered
He's through it he's had it
With everything that truthfully mattered
Abused and in tatters try
To find his way to the front line
But his peers hold him back
Everyday that it's crunch time
He's seen in the lunch line
But never been noticed
Its like he knows what he wants
But he's never been focused
So I hocus pocus
Pull out a magic trick
I got to bring this kid
Back from a tragic trip
Before its too late
And a time bomb ticks
Before he ends up drunk
With a plate to his wrist
(Yeah)
So down you've been up
For days but I'm coming
So hold on hold on, hold on
Hold on 'cause I'm coming
You start nothing
With your ways but I'm coming
So hold on hold on hold on
Hold on 'cause I'm coming
You see Debbie had a hunnie
And thought it was figured out
But Debbie fell pregnant
So her hubby was up and out
He left her with nothing now
But chaos to order
Man she facing life sentence
Single mother with a daughter
He bought her a car
But it take a tear from a stone
But the message written
Is followed said to go it alone
She home on her own
Trying to raise a baby its bullshit
This girls only sixteen
And barely a school kid
She's round with the cool click
The popular school chicks
The hot and the pool shit
But bikini's don't matter
If your fat in the tummy
Is it sad or just funny it ain't a joke to her
When little bobby's crying for mummy
So now she's out on her own
Because her friends don't call
She's a Cinderella princess without no ball
To attend and a friend is
All she needs when she's down
And she grieve I'll pick her up
And put her back on her feet
(Yeah)
So down you've been up
For days but I'm coming
So hold on hold on
Hold on 'cause I'm coming
You start nothing
With your ways but I'm coming
So hold on hold on
Hold on 'cause I'm coming
The other week I saw this kid trying spit raps
One of them parties where the private school chicks at
He sporting payless shoes with the shit cap
From the outer suburbs caught up in the riff raff
He dropped a sixteen I swore that he'd make it
They laughed at his clothes but he'd rap if he was naked
I asked "Why he did this?", he said, "We just do"
Its just like marriage boy you just knew
He was one for each other
You could write to each other
Spend a night with each other
Or fend and fight for the other
So if he does it then I'm a do it to
Hold on and be strong ill be back
Comin' for you
(Yeah)
So down you've been up
For days but I'm coming
So hold on hold on
Hold on 'cause I'm coming
You start nothing
With your ways but I'm coming
So hold on hold on
Hold on 'cause I'm coming
I'm coming home, I'm coming home
I'm coming home but I'm coming
I'm coming home, I'm coming home
I'm coming home, hold on 'cause I'm coming
I'm coming home, I'm coming home
I'm coming home but I'm coming
I'm coming home, I'm coming home
I'm coming home, hold on 'cause I'm coming
