Paris (Rapper) - Hold the Line lyrics

See, the way you talk Is frightening quite a lot of people And I want to know Are you going to minimize your way of approach? Because not everybody's a revolutionary And the fear is keeping people away From coming together as we should Now, what can you do about that? There's nothing I can do about that Because it's my firm belief that somebody has to be there Everybody can't be mealy-mouthed Everybody can't tiptoe through the tulips Everybody can't play politics Everybody can't compromise Somebody has to be strong I wouldn't have to be as strong as I am If I saw some others being strong like that I could tone down But I'm feeling such desperation To get the message out To try to plant the seed in those who are strong enough That the walls of their mind Can hold that revolutionary light It closes doors in my face It cuts back on money [?] It drives some women away from me But I keep on pushin' And somebody has to hold the line I'm gonna hold the line
