You toil day and night
Still no future in sight
And when you feel like giving up
hold on
Remember where you started from
Look at you now
You had no shoes before
Now you can boast of a sole under your feet, hold on
I know you feel God has abandoned you
I felt that way too
Dont be sad dear
We all have been where you are now
I know the soil gets harder everyday
As rain refused to fall on your land
But Let your tears and sweat keep the ground wet for now
A mighty storm comes your way
I see you with your degrees
With skills
With a heart of love, dignity and strenght
But no one wants you yet, hold on
I know your tired of working for ages
And yet you see no wages
I see suicidal thoughts in your heart
Hold on
You fight "wrong" all day
Yet been right hasnt paid
And now you are considering wrong
Hold on
I see you've lost faith in my voice
And discarded all that i have said
But before you throw away hope
Why not hold on a day more
Because far into the horizon
I see men in search of something
I see an incomplete nation seeking to complete itself
And in your hands i see all they seek
For today i tell you
You' ve toiled enough
You will suffer no more
Your degrees, skills and personality is in high demand now!!
But where is thou,
he is no where to be found
Oh i see him now
Oh my good friend
I see you down and wounded
I see you bruised and fallen
I see an arrow of hatred in thy heart
How the mighty fall before they shine
Why did you give up
Why slumber
Why throw away your tools
Why didnt you just for a while longer
Hold on!
