(with John Legend) |
|
Whenever things seem hard to bare |
|
Don't give up. |
|
Hang On In |
|
There There ain't no time, |
|
No time for sorrow. |
|
And we ain't got time no time |
|
Ah time to be sad. |
|
And maybe the world ain't what it could be |
|
But to understand why is to know reality |
|
Ah don't give in (hang on in there) |
|
Ah I said hang on (hang on in there) |
|
How many times did you hear your mom and daddy? |
|
Say oh child |
|
I never had it so good |
|
I wanna say thank you, thank you for the start |
|
Cause deep in my soul, |
|
I know you did all that you could |
|
I'm just a part of your dreams this |
|
I know But |
|
I'll do what ever possible to make this thing grow. |
|
Ah don't give in (hang on in there) |
|
I said hang on (hang on in there) |
|
Ah now say tomorrow you woke up a king |
|
Now tell me just how would you fix everything? |
|
You walk around complaining about how things are |
|
But what have you added to this world so far |
|
Check out your mind, and see what the answer is |
|
And tell me how much did you give |
|
Ah don't give in (hang on in there) |
|
I said hang on (hang on in there) |
|
There are plenty of things still left to live for |
|
A child, a friend, and a wife |
|
They all want to share your life. |
|
Ain't that enough to make you want hang on |
|
Hang on, hang on (hang on in there) |
|
The sign said "America love it or leave" well has it really come to that? |
|
And beside, |
|
I don't want to and you can't make me love |
|
I've got too many friends, that have she'd their blood, |
|
I've got too many relatives here born on this land |
|
So you can't make me leave |
|
I say this is my county and you can't make me leave |
|
You can't make me love the way you treat me |
|
And you can't make me love the way you beat me. |
|
Hang on in there, |
|
I'm gonna hang on |
|
No matter you do or what you say |
|
Is just wanna let you know you can't drive me away |
|
I'm gonna ay hang |
|
I'm not gonna throw up my hand |
|
I'm not gonna throw up my hand |
|
Any you can't drive me from my home land |
|
If the smog from the cars and so many live we have lost |
|
Still No matter what |
|
I'm gonna hang on |
