Holding Firm
Sizzla Lyrics

Oh whoa
Expressing a feeling of awe and wonder

Hail Jah
Praising and acknowledging God

Always hailing him
Continuously showing gratitude and respect towards God

I've been here all day of my life,
I have been living my life to the fullest for a long time

Works good and queer I behold with my sight.
I have witnessed both good and strange things in life.

Some will share, others do as they like
While some people are generous, others act solely in their own interest

Some, yuh flesh dem waah tear with dem fork and knife
Some people are so cruel that they want to harm you physically

Some don't care their heart is like ice
Some people are heartless and indifferent to others' suffering

After kill another them rejoice but I'm
They celebrate and find joy in harming others, but I am not like them

Holding firm
Standing strong and unyielding in my beliefs and values

Every man deserves to earn
Everyone should have the opportunity to earn a living and succeed

Jah Jah come and plant with success
God will bless and help those who work hard and stay true to their principles

Every man has his turn
Everyone will have their moment in life to achieve success

You won't sink I in the mess
Others' negativity and cynicism will not bring me down

You say I'm rude, it's an attitude yeah
You accuse me of being impolite, but it's just my personality

I don't choose, I don't lose, so go on your way
I do not need to pick sides or compromise my values for others

Money is the order of your day
Your primary concern is making money

Choosing your wealth, that won't stay
Focusing only on wealth will not bring lasting happiness or success

What I come to prove I don't choose, an den
I do not have to prove myself to anyone or change who I am

Dis me and a love me include
People who dislike me are not important, only those who love and support me matter

Heavy obstacles I a move, cyah eat I food
I am overcoming significant challenges that others cannot even understand

Jah alone a earn the reprove
Only God can truly judge my worth and accomplishments

I see, yuh brother make a call, an yuh turn and get vex
I see how your brother's actions upset you

Ah hear you nah hear, but a neglect you a neglect
You ignore the needs and feelings of others, just like how you are ignored by others

Dat too bad, tell me how you doit
Your behavior is unhealthy and harmful, and I am questioning how you continue to act this way

In your heart, do you feel complete
Are you truly satisfied with who you are and how you treat others?

All de cake, all ah it you go eat
You will eventually have to face the consequences of your actions

Pass dem corner, an dem dyamn face twist
Ignore those who are negative towards you and continue on your path

No where bout yah, so dem face it a go fit, hey
They do not belong here, so their negativity will not affect me

Embrace it with a smile and the princess will kiss
Welcome challenges and difficulties with a positive attitude, and you will be rewarded

Only want to see you fall
Some people take pleasure in seeing others fail or suffer.
