Holdin' On

[Verse 1] Oh how it hurts, like child birth The wounds heal slow, you just don't know At times, I don't know what to say And all I do is pray, day to day But still, I feel my strength might die Like right now, I'm trying hard not to cry Even when I close my eyes, I still see it Damn, I just don't believe it The bad times I buried, like the cemetery Unworthy people playing beneficiaries A lot of people eating off of one man's death Don't you worry B.I., I'm going to ride to my last breath You killers, caused a lot of devastation You have no idea what you did to this nation I fucking hate you, excuse my frustration But just when I'm about to quit, God tells me to just [Chorus] Don't you give up, be strong Hold on, hold on Things are going to get better Tough times, they last so long Hold on, hold on If you believe, they will get better [Verse 2] Frank White, the man with the money and the fame Passed away, now bitches want to claim his name I been with my nigger before he came in the game No one's, no V's, we used to take the train Just us and the Mafia going out to parties I guess back then we was real nobodies But he was my nigger, and I was his bitch I rolled hard with him, how could I forget him Had beef with your wife that ain't patched up But still got love for your kids Even wrote 'em in my will And I'm going to make sure the fam keep a decent meal No matter what I got to do, or who I got to kill Shit is real, baby, there ain't no appeal If I'm fucked up, imagine how Mrs. Wallace feels Sometimes I sit and think how it would be if we was married Of if I woulda kept the child that I carried So to my ladies, don't think I haven't walked in your shoes Or thought this was only happening to you, right Here's my shoulder, you can lean on this boo Cause trust me, I know exactly what you're going through [Chorus] [Verse 3] So I guess you know the story of how it all ends Depressed, stressed, don't know who's my real friends One thing's for sure, I can count on my mens D-Roc, Money, L, Lil' Cease, and PD My whole B.I. family, remind me of you We miss you so much, I love you so much Never thought life without you would be so rough But I know we going to make it We ain't happy, but we faking And to New York, thanks for the support And all our real fans, I'm shouting out the whole land This is something young kids just won't understand How they took away this beautiful man Who shared so many memories I could go on and on, but a song can only be so long It's been hard, but I told God that I put up a fight So here's a Long Kiss Goodnight, Frank White [Chorus]
