Hold On

Hold on, hold on Hold on to what you've got Hold on, hold on Hold onto what you've got The world is changing in a biased way And the sword cuts both ways at last Do we live in fear? Is our conscience clear? With so many questions I've asked Keep your loved ones safe, keep your family close Keep your children by your side And hold on, hold on Hold on to what you've got Sisters and mothers, fathers and brothers Hold on to what you've got "A change is gonna come," Sam Cooke once sung Oh, lay down that burden of hate With cities divided and the homeless crying Equality for all someday Keep your loved ones safe, keep your family close Keep your children by your side And hold on, hold on Hold on to what you've got Sisters and mothers, fathers and brothers Hold on to what you've got With the courtesy of kindness And the currency of love May the words of John Lewis never fade (never fade) To the bigots and the racists And those that divide us Feel the spotlight of justice someday, oh-oh Hold on, hold on Hold on to what you've got (listen) Hold on, hold on Hold on to what you've got Hold on, hold on Hold onto what you've got (sing it for me) Hold on, hold on Hold onto what you've got --- Hold On - Rod Stewart
