Lyrics

I came up with a lunchbox dented in the side

Mom said, "Keep your head up," I kept that in mind

Corner store candy, two bucks, cold change

Bus pass folded, name tag, worn chain

Old man on the stoop knew every kid by shoe

He said, "Watch who hugs you, watch what they do"

I saw the slick talk, the fake gold grin

Saw a hundred dreams get parked in the rain

So I wrote in the dark on the back of the receipt

Kept my hands on the page, kept my feet in the street

Now I hear that hum from a place I can't name

Same cracked little frame, but the picture got changed

Hold that line, hold that line

Sender on the label, every scar a line

Hold that line, hold that line

From the broke-down block to the front page shine

Hold that line (Hold that line)

Hold that line (Hold that line)

Auntie fixed her hair in the chrome by the sink

Two jobs, no applause, still made the house blink

She fed a whole block with a pot and a prayer

If you knew her table, you knew what was rare

My man got snatched by a badge and a lie

Left his cousin in tears, kept his truth in his eye

I learned early, "Son, don't sell your name cheap"

That ink got a spine, that pain got a beat

So I sharpened my pen like a blade on a stone

Say less, mean more when the truth gets shown

Every line got weight, every breath got proof

From a broken cassette to a booth with a roof

Hold that line, hold that line

Sender on the label, every scar a line

Hold that line, hold that line

From the broke-down block to the front page shine

Hold that line (Hold that line)

Hold that line (Hold that line)

I seen the kid I was in the puddle by the curb

Big eyes, small coat, big dreams, few words

If he could see me now, he'd laugh then nod

Same hands, new grip, same faith, harder odds

Hold that line, hold that line

Sender on the label, every scar a line

Hold that line, hold that line

From the broke-down block to the front page shine

Hold that line, hold that line

I bought the whole of me, I paid that price

Hold that line, hold that line

Still sounding true when the room goes quiet

Hold that line (Hold that line)

Hold that line (Hold that line)

Hold that line (Hold that line)

Hold that line (Hold that line)
