Lyrics
Hold On
By Ted Horrell
Just because it’s floating doesn’t mean it’s wood
Just because you want to doesn’t mean you should
Just because I keep it doesn’t make it mine
Just because they let you doesn’t make it fine
They’ll try to tell you what they think you should believe
They’ll try to tell you that you’re wrong if you disagree
But hold on, hold on
To the things you know to be true
Hold on, hold on
Don’t let ‘em tell you what to do
Just because they bought it doesn’t mean I win
Just because they laugh doesn’t mean they will again
Just because I make it doesn’t mean it’s good
Just because you sell it doesn’t mean you should
They’ll try to tell you what they think you should believe
They’ll try to tell you that you’re strange if you disagree
But hold on, hold on
To the things you know to be true
Hold on, hold on
Don’t let ‘em tell you what to do
The folks with clout are looking out
Try to make you doubt what you’re all about
When the left is wrong and the right has left
And no one agrees on Sunday dress
You’re stuck there in a tricky place between success and your own faith
The folks with clout, they'll call you out
If you start to doubt what it's all about
When the left is wrong and the right has left
And no one agrees on Sunday dress
You’re stuck there in a sticky place between success and your own faith
So hold on, hold on
To the things you know to be true
Hold on, hold on
Don’t let ‘em tell you what to do
