Hold up, hold up
It's a big, old world, and life moves fast
It could be good times, it could be bad
I could be happy or I could be sad
Middle finger to the hard times, they won't last
With a little bit of luck, a whole lot of love
A little bit of rain and a whole lot of sun
A little bit of hold tight, little bit of let it go
'Cause the only thing you know is that you never know
I know a lot, I seen a lot
Could say I been around the block for a couple spins
Where they used to have the chains on the double rims
If I ever missed a shot, I was hustlin'
My friends think I'm dope, my fam thinks I'm crazy
My back is on the ropes, a Million Dollar Baby
I tighten up the gloves, take it on the chin
Each time I hit the canvas I get up again
Let's go, I'm cool, I'm straight, I'm fine
I stand, I fall, I dance, I climb
I close my eyes, don't think, just jump
I know that little me would be pumped
It's a big, old world, and life moves fast
It could be good times, it could be bad
I could be happy or I could be sad
Middle finger to the hard times, they won't last
With a little bit of luck, a whole lot of love
A little bit of rain and a whole lot of sun
A little bit of hold tight, little bit of let it go
'Cause the only thing you know is that you never know
The scene still sticky but the flow still silk
Lookin' down from where I'm at, it's like I'm walkin' on stilts
It was brick by brick, look at all that we built
Went from makin' a cheap mill to pay me my next meal
As a kid, I was lookin' out the window sill
At the big, wide world with my head on tilt
My shoes laced loose and my cap real low
What happens if he never blows? Guess you'll never know
Now I'm smilin' in the sunshine, captain when it's crunch time
Ali with the punchlines, all y'all know
Jamble on the frontline, Canon on the drumline
Give it to me one time, ah, let's go
It's a big, old world, and life moves fast
It could be good times, it could be bad
I could be happy or I could be sad
Middle finger to the hard times, they won't last
With a little bit of luck, a whole lot of love
A little bit of rain and a whole lot of sun
A little bit of hold tight, little bit of let it go
'Cause the only thing you know is that you never know
