Wo-yoy, wo-yoy, wo-yoy
[Chorus]
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
[Verse 1]
If you can excel lot of criticisms
Then you'll know you're on your way
If you can excel on your journey
Then you know my heart is yearning
[Chorus]
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
[Verse 2]
If you can excel on your journey
Then you know, on your way
If you can excel on your journey
Then you know my heart is really yearning
[Chorus]
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
[Verse 3]
If you can excel on your journey
Then you know, on your way
If you can excel on your journey
Then you know my heart is really yearning (Oh, yeah)
[Chorus]
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got (Yeah)
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
If you're on your way, first from a million
Then you know how I'm feelin'
If you only wait just for a minute
Then you'll know my heart is really yearning (Woh-yeah!)
[Chorus]
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got
Hold on to what you got (Yeah)
[Outro]
Hold on to what you got
Don't give it up
