Hold On (Haiti) Lyrics
[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!
