VERSE 1
Everybody's looking for a meaning, everybody's doing their own thing
And nobody's solving the problem, ain't nobody helping each other
Some people give into fear, some people give into hunger
Some of us live for the future and some of us wonder

PRE-CHORUS
Give a little light, give a little love, maybe there's enough for everyone
Give a little hope, and a little trust, maybe there's enough for everyone

CHORUS
People hold on, don't do yourself wrong
People hold on, we've got to be strong, people hold on

VERSE 2
Everybody's getting frustrated, why should we live with this hatred?
We've all dancin' on a thin line
They're makin' out we're having a good time
So who's gonna give us the answer? Sister and brother

PRE-CHORUS
Givin' into life, givin' into love, maybe there's enough for everyone

CHORUS
People hold on, don't do yourself wrong
People hold on, we've got to be strong, people hold on

BRIDGE
People hold on, people hold on to it
People hold on, you know you gotta do it

PRE-CHORUS
Give a little light, give a little love, maybe there's enough for everyone
Give a little hope, and a little trust, maybe there's enough for everyone

CHORUS
People hold on, don't do yourself wrong
People hold on, we've got to be strong
People hold on, it won't be long
People hold on, we've got to be strong, people hold on
