IN the ghetto,time, and grime,don;t hold back, the years or tears, scream out, in the night,nobody hears,or cares, but,I 'm still holding on,there are fears,out here, nobody, has met, yet, I keep on holding, on, walking city,streets, praying that, death, won't get , to me, sooner, or later, I keep holding on, strangled, by the secret,wishes, inside, hoping the fake,dreams, of smoke, entering the bodies, I see, and each nose, don't **** off, the real dreams, that the ones, not on the pipe, being sought, *** being used, to sooth , the ache, lack away, people, being used, no escape, from the ghetto blues, so, I'm still, holding on, watching children, doubledouch, on sidewalk cracks,lots seeded, with tossed mattresses, junked cars, rotting garbage, stray dogs, dice thrown down, hoping to get lucky, and I keep holing on

I'M STILL HOLDING ON PART TWO BY VICTOR TRIPP
IN the ghetto,time, and grime,don;t hold back, the years or tears, scream out, in the night,nobody hears,or cares, but,I 'm still holding on,there are fears,out here, nobody, has met, yet, I keep on holding, on, walking city,streets, praying that, death, won't get , to me, sooner, or later, I keep holding on, strangled, by the secret,wishes, inside, hoping the fake,dreams, of smoke, entering the bodies, I see, and each nose, don't **** off, the real dreams, that the ones, not on the pipe, being sought, *** being used, to sooth , the ache, lack away, people, being used, no escape, from the ghetto blues, so, I'm still, holding on, watching children, doubledouch, on sidewalk cracks,lots seeded, with tossed mattresses, junked cars, rotting garbage, stray dogs, dice thrown down, hoping to get lucky, and I keep holing on
