Текст песне : Lucky Dube. Hold On.

I knew exactly, what you were going through
It's just that I didn't have the right to discuss your problems
I saw you struggling for our education
I saw you struggling to get us clothes to wear, mama

This man you got married to is dead alive?
Over the years I asked myself many questions is he my real dad
Or was I adopted, mama I know it's difficult for you, mama
But hold on I am a little grown up now

Hold on just a little bit longer now
Hold on just a little bit longer now
Hold on just a little bit longer now
Hold on just a little bit longer now

You were a laughing stock in the community
The press didn't rest makin' news out of you, mama

Now is the time to show them
That he who laughs last, laughs the best, that's the way it is
Now is the time to show them
That he who laughs last, laughs the best, that's the way it is

Hold on just a little bit longer now
Hold on just a little bit longer now
Hold on just a little bit longer now
Hold on just a little bit longer now

I know it's not easy for you mama
But your tears will turn to laughter
Now that I'm a grown up mama

Hold on just a little bit longer now
Hold on just a little bit longer now
Hold on just a little bit longer now
