    Lyrics:
    Weight of love on my shoulders
    I thought that it would be easier than this
    I thought my heart had grown colder
    But the warmth of your kiss, I can't dismiss
    Though my past has left me bruised
    I ain't hiding from the truth
    When the truth won't let me lie right next to you
    But it's holding on
    And it's holding strong
    Even though I tried to make it
    Played the part, but I can't fake it
    It keeps holding on
    And it's holding strong
    Even though I tried to break it
    Heaven knows that I can't shake it
    Holding on
    Holding on
    Holding on
    Holding on
    I've seen times that were harder
    I remember the taste of bitterness
    Won't you help me, my father?
    Help me fall in the love that I have missed
    Though my past has left me bruised
    I ain't hiding from the truth
    When the truth won't let me lie right next to you
    But it's holding on
    And it's holding strong
    Even though I tried to make it
    Played the part, but I can't fake it
    It keeps holding on
    And it's holding strong
    Even though I tried to break it
    Heaven knows that I can't shake it
    Holding on
    Holding on
    Holding on
    Holding on
    But it's holding on
    And it's holding strong
    Even though I tried to make it
    Played the part, but I can't fake it
    It keeps holding on
    And it's holding strong
    Even though I tried to break it
    Heaven knows that I can't shake it
    Holding on
    Holding on
    Holding on
    Holding on

    I was curious to who Mr. Gregory Porter was, as he had a collab with Disclosure.
    To my surprise, I have discovered a brand you world of smooth as silk jazz, and even silkier voice of the amazing Gregory Porter himself. I'm of the more hip and soft EDM culture, and this piece of his alone made me connect to a brand new world of music. Amazing.

That is not to say he comes from that environment..but he is the embodiment of what it's all about. When it comes down to the bottom line...Black people sing this kind of stuff best!!!!
