Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know

Oh I don't want to stay uptown
I've been there for awhile and I want to come back down
Calm my fire, calm my fire
Calm my fire down down down down

Got on my knees, I got on my knees and prayed
Lord won't you help me? Help me find my way
Calm my fire, calm my fire
Calm my fire down down down down

Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
I went to the water, saw my reflection in the surface
I went to the water to wash my sins away
My soul is up to no good, all these poisons I'm ingesting
My soul is up to no good, help me find my way

Calm my fire, calm my fire
Calm my fire down down down

I went to the hollows, sat beneath the pale moonlight
I went to the hollows and sang the night away
Singing songs of trouble on this stormy path I follow
Lord won't you help me? Help me find my way

Calm my fire, calm my fire
Calm my fire down down down down

Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
Hold on to what you know
