Tendai Mhlanga - Hang On Lyrics

I'm surrounded
By misery
Tears and frowns
No smiles
Depressing imagery
And I know
Things ain't goin' right oh
(Why why why?)
Sometimes you
Wanna quit
(Wanna quit)
Just forget
(It's too tough, just too rough, had enough)
'Round you
Those that love you
(Still)
Found
That don't console you
But for how long?
How long?

When life's a struggle
Who said it would be easy?
You just got to
Hang on!
You got ta
Hang on!
Deep down in you's a soldier
Nothin' can hold ya
You hear me?
Hang on!
Can truly hold you down

And I look at the world today with sorrow
At the horrible shapes that the evil in us takes
We got anarchy and poverty
Sick symphony of human pleas
Do you hear me sayin'?
(Hear me sayin'?)
Let me talk about
Moans, groans
Children growin' up on their own
It's a miracle we all get through the day
(Through the day yeah)
Let's make amends
Put an end
To strife and sin
Pain and bloodshed
The light, the love
Is in you
Let it shine
Let it spread

When life's a struggle
Who said it would be easy?
You just got to
Hang on!
You got ta
Hang on!
Deep down in you's a soldier
Nothin' can hold ya
You hear me?
Hang on!
Hang on!
They say no point in tryin'
But I know you know they're lyin'
You hear me
Hang on!
You got ta
Hang on!
Deep down in you's a soldier
Nothin' can hold yaYou hear me?
Hang on!
Can truly hold you down!
Oh no no no no!
Hang on

Hang on

When life's a struggle
Who said it would be easy?
You just got to
Hang on!

Hang on!
Deep down in you's a soldier
Nothin' can hold ya

They say no point in tryin'
