Verse
I was one of the millions
Making anxious decisions
Looking for a remedy
Couldn't find a solution
I was one of the people
Looking for every signal
Tryna find a memory
Of a time it was peaceful
Some people hate
Some people lie
Some people love to see a grown man cry
I made mistakes, in like a million ways
All that I did, I didn't waste my time
Cause I know I never trade my life
Maybe you laugh, but in your room you cry
All from a distance, love is missing
Fighting for your chance, I said
Chorus
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Verse
This is for the girl in the dark
This is for one tryna make it right
This is for the girl waiting for the sunrise
This is for the one with a voice inside
Don't need to run
When you can breakthrough
Knowing that I'm covered in all I do
I won't be influenced by the things I see
Always look ahead never behind me
I said hold on, you better hold on
It's gonna find you, it's gonna find you
It feels right now, ready to fight now
I'm moving in now, I'm breathing out now
I'm releasing, this inner vision
I got advantage
No need to panic
You need reminding
Let me remind you
You're gonna find it, it's gonna find you
Chorus
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
Bridge
It's the one in you
The one is calling you
It's the one in you
The one is calling you
It's the one in you
The one is calling you
It's the one in you
The one is calling you
