[Instrumental Intro] . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. . .. ... ... .... [Verse] Hold on, Sinister numbers are wielding sinister words, Try, Your best to stand firm, and be heard, You are, A miracle, Just by being born you defy the odds [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse] Taaaake, take the time to visualize, All the pieces that need to be in place, For your face, To form, in this form, Astronomical calculations and chemical equations that needed to occur, Just for the chance [Instrumental Build] (Hoooooollllddd oooonnnn) (na, na, na na hmm hm hm) [Pre-Chorus] You deserve love and respect, There's nothing that you need to do, To earn the right to be here in this world, Those damn voices will tell you otherwise, But they're just lies, From the shadows that leak out from within the fear [Hook] Hold On (Hold on), [Chorus] You're a piece of this grand puzzle too, A part of the whole, another soul on this sapphire-rock drifting in the void, So keep on holding on, Keep holding on, Hold on [Verse] You know, sometimes I wonder, Is it easier to hate the ones that hate? While we have the chance to solve it peacefully, it's a path we should take, But stand firm, and be heard, There's only so many jabs one can make, Before you have to raise a fist and fight back [Verse] Either way, try to keep in mind, that even enemies are brethren too, and fear's a powerful tool for those that want it all, Justice is imperfect when it's doled out by the unjust, Do your best to carry your sword, with love [Hook] Hold on (Hold on) [Chorus] You're a piece of this grand puzzle too, A part of the whole, another soul on this sapphire-rock drifting in the void, So keep on holding on, Keep holding on, Hold on [Guitar Solo Interlude] [Jazzy Electric Organ Instrumental, Introspective Bridge] You know, I've seen the darkest side of night, And I've made mistakes and feel weak sometimes, ... ... ... Just like you, .. . .. I've seen loved ones cross beyond the line of no return, And lose the fight against sicknesses of soul and mind, ... ... ... I've battled words and mirror ghosts too, just like you, I've got scars on my body, and a bruise on my mind, .. . .. It helps to ease the pain to try and help others like you fight, so I'll keep spilling words of light out to the ether, ... ... ... In hopes it reaches ears that need to hear .... .. .... [Hook] Hold on (Hold on) [Crescendo Chorus] You're a piece of this grand puzzle too, A part of the whole, another soul on this sapphire-rock drifting in the void, So keep on holding on, Keep holding on, Hold on! [Melodic Refrain] (Keep Holdin' On!) ... ... ... (Hold on!) ... ... ... (Keep Holdin' On!) .. .. .. . [Electric Organ Instrumental, Outro] Hold on (Hold on)
