Hold On Lyrics - Under Construction Part Ii - Timbaland

(Intro - Timbaland - talking) 

Oh! 

You know what? 

(Wyclef: good good good) 

I go through a lot, since my baby girl's not here 

Life ain't been the same for me 

Li Li I miss you very much 

I want you to hear my pain that I go through (go through ...) 

(Verse 1 - Timbaland) + (Wyclef Jean) 

It's been three years (AH!), livin this fast life 

I think on it, I know one day I won't have life 

People don't know me over the time B 

They don't wanna know me, they wanna know my G's 

Li I quit, things ain't the same no more 

But I'ma do my thing 'til there ain't no more (yeah) 

I got a plan, I wonder how far it can go 

I demand the best for myself, that's all I know 

I, done seen the world become 

Products of a revolution that we begun (yeah) 

Make me wanna split a swisher, I need me one 

They keep on coping more deed than one 

That's why I say .

(Break - Timbaland) 

I know you like my shoes, cause you walkin my shoes 

And would you be prepared to see (would ya?) 

A life full of money and a life full of girls 

But a heart that's really in deed (feel my pain) 

A lot of people yellin ("we love ya Timbaland") 

But I know y'all really envy(ooo) 

I don't know who's in my corner, don't know where is my corner 

But I gotta grab onto Li 

So I must . 

(Chorus - Wyclef Jean) 

Hey, Timbaland you gotta hold on (hold on) 

But you got to be strong 

the pains almost over 

(Timbaland: My pain almost over) 

Look towards the sky, there's only one Jehovah 

(Timbaland: I can't quit yet), you can't quit 

Photos 

You gotta hold on, you got to be strong 

(Timbaland: Uh, my pain almost over) 

Look towards the sky, there's only one Jehovah 

(Verse 2 - Magoo) + (Wyclef Jean) 

Pain, can't you see the pain in my eyes? 

The lie behind my cries, don't you sympathize with me 

You don't have to wonder when I come 

You label me a bum, you think it ain't suprisin me (yeah) 

Funny how boo got money, people come around 

Soon as boo fail, kick 'em to the ground (yeah) 

Not just neighbors, the whole damn town 

Own flesh and blood, said I was a clown 

But as the world turns, my life can too 

And like a gun kills, a knife can too (yeah) 

I was stabbed thrice, how 'bout you? 

Once by my mom, pops the other two 

Child abuse kid, ward of the state 

I know it was the past, but I just can't shake 

How you had a kid, beat me like a slave 

I was only three, how could I misbehave? 

I didn't know better, you could teach me first 

You said fuck that, then you beat me worse 

It's pain in this verse, hard to go on (yeah) 

Boo is a man, so I must hold on 

(Break - Timbaland) 

I know you like my shoes, cause you walk in my shoes 

And would you be prepared to see (would ya?) 

(Wyclef: yeah) 

A life full of money and a life full of girls 

But a heart that's really in deed (full of pain) 

A lot of people yellin ("we love ya Maganoo") 

But I know y'all really envy(ooo) 

I don't know who's in my corner, don't know where is my corner 

(Wyclef: yeah) 

But I gotta grab onto Li, uh huh 

So I must . 

(Chorus - Wyclef Jean) 

You gotta hold on (hold on) 

But you got to be strong 

the pains almost over 

(Timbaland: my pains almost over) 

Look towards the sky, there's only one Jehovah 

(Timbaland: I can't quit yet), can't quit 

You gotta hold on (yeah) 

You got to be strong (yeah) 

(Timbaland: my pains almost over) 

Yeah, look towards the sky, there's only one Jehovah (yeah) 

(Verse 3 - Wyclef Jean) 

Yeah, yo, I seen Brooklyn turn into Crook-lyn 

The youngn's they spend their life in central Crook-lyn (yeah) 

I've seen prom queens, turn into prom fiends 

Sometime I ask myself what happen to Dr. King's "Dream" (yeah) 

I've seen best friends, turn to enemies 

What made it sad, I had to sing at the eulogy 

So hard for us to say goodbye 

So I puff the lye and stay high (yeah) 

The man you said was your fam in the park (yeah) 

Saw your face spark when you found out he was a Narc (yeah) 

Cause everybody wanna be Nino Brown 

They wanna be Nino Brown, they wanna be Nino Brown (yeah) 

And the girls they love the Nino Brown 

They hug they Nino Brown, they lust for Nino Brown (yeah) 

And the fiends they want the Nino Brown 

The way he hold you down, when he comes around (yeah) (*echo*) 

(Outro - Timbland - talking) 

The pain never stops baby 

Li Li, I hope ya hear this 

Cause life will never be the same without you girl 

(Wyclef: yeah) 

Timbaland talkin to you 

(Wyclef: yeah, yo, yo) 

We ain't used to nothin 

This music industry, will never be the same without you 

Nothin but pain, hard struggle 

But me and Jimmy D, we're gonna keep ridin for ya 

Cause life must go on 

You must live on 

So we gotta hold on, c'mon 

(Hold on) uh, (hold on) 

My pain almost over (hold on, hold on) 

I can't quit yet (hold on, hold on) 

My pain almost over (hold on, hold on) 

Nah Li Li, me and 'Goo we can't quit, OH!
