Holding On
M.O.M Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I done seen to many people
In my life come and go
I ain't ever gonna fold
I be holding my own
Spent my time behind the stone
I been calling missing home
Living through this pay phone
I been holding my
Holding my
Holding my own
Made a diamond out of coal
I be holding my
Holding my
Holding my own
Made a diamond out of coal
I be holding my
Fist full of rocks
Aming for the top
Keep it under pressure
No lesser give it everything you got
Calculate the risks
Formulate the plot
Calibrate the miss
Simulate the drop
Mitigate the loss
But never forget to flip a cop
System be twisted beyond the block
Backing a victim with no vision
Just blind betting on the slot
Piggy pen fulla slop
Next up for the chop
Scapegoat for the swap
Sugar coating for the shock
Never been a ma fukka that be to proud
Never had a set crew that I moved round
Two faced with a mood swing no doubt
New state of mind
with a sense of a view how
You can bring it all back from Jack
Blacked out in ya habitat
Stacked habits addicted reactions
Fashion pulling on these rabbits
Outta the hat no cappin
I done seen to many people
In my life come and go
I ain't ever gonna fold
I be holding my own
Spent my time behind the stone
I been calling missing home
Living through this pay phone
I been holding my
Holding my
Holding my own
Made a diamond out of coal
I be holding my
Holding my
Holding my own
Made a diamond out of coal
I be holding my
Hand fulla straps
Nomadic bag packed
Tactical map when I lay the track
Plotting a path of my own back
Destination keep it unknown
With the hesitation of a comfort zone
Fat lady gone hit the tone
When she hear the sound of a trumpet blown
Time is nigh better knuckle up
Buckle down when the tides high
tough town if you come around
But I run rings round these other clowns
Crack the whip on these other cats
I'm leo raised better do the math
Mama told me if I'm talking trash
Better bite the cake when I take a bath
She the only one around when a few gapped
Lit flame script letters drip wax
Red wine in bottles by mas
Pen drippin I respond to this task
No ficade take off this mask
Ten toes on my own two this man
No dismantling this plan
Full proof with diamonds in hand
I done seen to many people
In my life come and go
I ain't ever gonna fold
I be holding my own
Spent my time behind the stone
I been calling missing home
Living through this pay phone
I been holding my
Holding my
Holding my own
Made a diamond out of coal
I be holding my
Holding my
Holding my own




Made a diamond out of coal
I be holding my
