Nate the Boy Scout - Hold On

Hey you over there
It may seem like they don't care
Just gotta find those few who dare
To find that vibe it's in the air
Hey you I'm over here
If you listen close and lend an ear
You might find a deepen cheer
A child like one that disapeared

Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on

A long lost thought
So many years ago
Like we've all grown up
And lost our hope
To be grown is to be old
And to be young is to be broke
We put ourselves into a stagnant mold
Iv'e broken mine
Now isn't that bold
Some call me foolish
But I've been told
That my mind is different
And I can treat this cold
That this world's caught
Your medicines old
Treating your mind
With all your care
Building your filter
Out of nothing but thin air
Content with where you are at
And to move at your own pace
The world will be screaming run faster
But you forgot to tie your lace
So you trip up and fall
Landing on your face
The ways of the wicked
Have no time or grace
Pick yourself up dust
And them embrace
Your failure and learn how to move forward
And work around this race

Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on

The game is designed
For you to fail
Don't know how to say this
But you won't prevail
Abiding to their standards
And all it entails
Building your status
As if people really care
The fact is most don't
And will hate you once you're there
We're and envious world
So glance and don't stare
At what you really want
And when you see it
It's your heir
You wanna be able to grasp it
Like its out of thin air
I'll become solid in shape
As it forms in your hand
Thickening in thought
Just like a strand
Until its like a cable
Flowing to your promise land
I don't know what you'll see
But we might misunderstand
So keep it to yourself
And devise a plan
Then march forward
And take your stand
On what your skills are
And develop them by hand
The realness and rawness
Making fears amand
