3rd strike hang on lyrics

the past is gone

fading like the sunset

fills me up inside

dropping like a death threat

well i'm a lover

and then a fighter

no easy rider

just like my fallen brothers

watchin' over me

hip to the game

but the game brought the pain

starin' at the walls

i'm wondering how i'm gonna make it out

destiny to victory

you gotta run before you crawl

you must rise above it

listen up to our life

all your dreams are misgueided

hang on

holding on to your pride

but it wont get you what you want



life will bring you up 

life will put you down

life will build you up

and then burn you down



step inside and testify

you're starin' at you death

but you won't stop to catch you motherfucking breath

petty bangsters playin' up the pranksters

runnin' from the officer

city executioner

come alive dont dive into the violent life

so leave the light on

cause i'll be coming right on up

quick fast

as i dash for the cash

i'm leaving all those other motherfuckers in the past



[chorus]
