Lyrics

summertime in february sipping on a blackwood/ bitter taste like coffee / keeps me up and haters off me/ plus, all i do is unload / the youngins disassemble/ they resemble me / of me when i was on those corners careful/ and this little youngin erol / that’s my heart though/ and know / if i had a son he’d be the one i gave my heart to/ an older brother to my baby darling she’s amazing/ daddy’s little arie / but sadly i’m in error/ there’s no happy endings in this narrative of never's/ and hopeless endeavors / i choke because the air’s thick/ the smoke it is careless, so i smoke until i care less/ it fades / in dreams i see arie/ it seems i see erol, but he’s fidgety and scary/ despise sits among us / with felonies and hungers/ and the stifling aroma of 409 and comas/ she remembered what i told her / i said i’d never leave her/ a tear slowly rolled as she felt me grab her finger / …….and babe i'll hold on (x3) i will hold on …….for you hypochondriac insomnia / this world she is a zombie of/ poplin pills / get some molly in, so she can party up/ let the love in / doves fly until the morning/ now it’s crusty condoms on the floor and everybody’s snoring/ this world is boring / she aspires to be more than/ some meat placed on a corner for the men who place the orders who needs disgrace to prosper / a simple thought to offer/ but her situation’s awkward / her heart is in a locker/ and the key is an adhesive to the men who take her hostage/ and every season’s a grievance / web md’ll make her nauseous and morbid on the toilet / razor blade in orbit/ of her arm all the harm men inflict act as arson/ live or let / her limbs tremble in exhaustion/ heaven sent is her best-friend knocking / she’s locked in/ they give each other strength / enough to kick the door in he’s always there, so she promised she’d be there for him/ …….and babe i'll hold x2 for you x3 she said she's late and can't afford to keep it/ let's keep it between me and you/ i know its hard/ i'm not going far/ i'll be beside you/ i'll hold/ could you baby/ hold on to this one for me?
