[Intro]
What we gonna do with you
We got everything to lose with you, so
What are we gonna do with you

[Verse 1]
I'm not out to steal your money
I don't wanna take your time
I do deserve a little respect, so
I'm gonna get what is mine, 'cause, yeah
Seem like old news, the whole world gone crazy
What am I gonna do
What am I gonna tell my babies, when
They don't understand
My pressure my struggle, my demands, yeah
Back then, I didn't understand when my pops came home saying
That he couldn't take it, but
It's hard to be a good man knowing that a man's plan
Is to take what you making

[Chorus]
Hold on, we're gonna make it, yeah
Hold on, we're gonna make it, yeah
Hold on, we're gonna make it, yeah
Hold on, we're gonna make it, yeah
[Verse 2]
Seem like new news
Is the old news from a different angle
Another mother on TV
Crying 'cause her boy didn't make it
She sayin' "what am I gonna do?"
"What am I gonna tell these babies?"
Yeah, y'all dont understand
Oh no, y'all don't understand
What are we gonna do with you?

[Chorus]
Hold on, we're gonna make it, yeah
Hold on, we're gonna make it, yeah
Hold on, we're gonna make it, yeah
Hold on, we're gonna make it, yeah

[Outro]
Yeah, yeah
Come on
Yeah
God bless your soul, child
Yeah
