lirik lagu shantéh – holding on
[intro ~ harmony israel]
i live in a world where desires are the boastful spirits that settle in the bellies of the vulnerable
they wrestle, knaw and claw their way through the desperate grip you’ve hedged around your aspirations
they are the clouds that descend upon the dreams you whispered to the winds of heaven
they are the anchors of despair that hug at your ankles, leaving you stranded in your own concentrated despondency…
now, i have become the pangs of my hunger
i am drenched, dipped heavy in the stench of fear… i reek of it
but what is the price of my soul, (when) i gotta eat?
there are corners of the world we speak of in hush tones, where souls are traded like stock for an immesurable worth
the desperate call this salvation and the foolhardy engage in a carousal they believe is success
hunger lights the way for the impetuous souls because patience can’t forage a sustenance for my ambitions
so amidst the looming darkness and the amoral hand upon my consciousness… i will wait
so when these moments occur i will remember that some things just can’t be sold and such with your promises new; with each dawn, i rest. feet firm, eyes steady, daily, holding on…
[verse 1 ~ shantéh]
i’ll stand on what i know
and the things that i’ve been shown
it may not make sense now but that’s okay
“everything in god’s time”
your will be done, not mine
so i’ll just get myself together ready for that day
[chorus ~ shantéh]
i’ll keep holding on
i’ll keep holding on
and if anybody asks me
i’ll just say i’m waiting patiently
because i know what you’ve said
[verse ~ shantéh]
this ain’t the way i thought it would be
but i’m glad it’s not left up to me
because your ways are so much higher, higher than mine!
you’ve got this all figured out, i’m looking forward to the when and how
i know that with you guiding us, we’ll be just fine
[chorus ~ shantéh]
i’ll keep holding on
i’ll keep holding on
and if anybody asks me
i’ll just say i’m waiting patiently
because i know what you’ve said
i’ll keep holding on
i’ll keep holding on
and if anybody asks me
i’ll just say i’m waiting patiently
because i know what you’ve said
[bridge ~ shantéh]
gonna work on becoming a better me
in the meantime, i’ll be waiting patiently
to witness everything you promised come into fruition
i’m waiting for the go ahead, you gave me your permission
you’ve got a perfect plan and yes i know that it’s in order
so i’ll just keep on sticking to the script, there’s no disorder
i wanna do everything just right
not tryna make no mistakes this time
gave me a gift so i’m taking it
not letting no one k!ll this vibe
not letting no one k!ll this vibe
gave me a gift and i’m taking it
not letting no one k!ll this vibe
not letting no one k!ll this vibe
gave me a gift and i’m taking it
not letting no one k!ll this vibe (vibe, vibe, vibe, vibe)
[chorus ~ shantéh]
i’ll keep holding on
i’ll keep holding on
and if anybody asks me
i’ll just say i’m waiting patiently
because i know what you’ve said
i’ll keep holding on
i’ll keep holding on
and if anybody asks me
i’ll just say i’m waiting patiently
because i know what you’ve said
