Ooh, yeah, ooh, ooh Oh yeah, uh-huh Listen Holding back the years Thinking about the fear I've had so long Will somebody here listen Listen to the fear that's gone Strangled by the wishes I begged for Hoping for the unmade for To get to me the sooner or later Oh Lord Ooh Holding back the years Chance for me to escape from all I know And uh holding back the tears yeah Cause nothing here is wrong, oh Lord I've wasted all my tears yeah (Ain't no reason, no) Wasted all those years (Too many, too many they just go by) Nothing had the chance to be good, no, no Nothing ever could, oh no But I'll keep holding on (Gotta keep holding on) I'll keep holding on (Never let go no, no, no) I'll keep holding on (Gotta keep holding on) I'll keep holding on Take your time, take your time Suga take your time Take your time Take your time, take your time Suga take your time Take your time Oh now I've wasted all my tears Wasted all those, those lonely, lonely years Nothing had the chance to be good Nothing ever could I'll keep holding on (Gotta keep holding on) I'll keep holding on (Never let go no, no, no) I'll keep holding on (Gotta keep holding on) I'll keep holding on Oh, oh, oh, oh Gotta just keep, keep Keep holding on No matter how tired Gotta just keep, keep Keep pressing on As weary as it may seem... [repeat 4x] Think it's a love song Pull back, pulsate Gonna keep holding on Never, never, never let go Oh yeah I'll keep holding on
