LYRICS:

Nobody said it would be easy
Nobody said that it would all be fine
But to get where we're going
Brother you’ve gotta hold the line
It ain’t a matter of if,
Nah, it's just a matter of time
But to get where we're going
Sister gotta hold the line

You gotta stay steadfast
Tread lightly
‘Cause they’re looking for a reason to knock you down
But you can't ask too politely
In the trenches you gotta get loud

Hold the line
Hold the line
Don't pay ‘em no mind
Oh, hold the line
Hold the line

Nobody said it happens overnight
but if you're looking for a sign
Remember everybody that stood up before you
Oh they hold the line
They wanna tell you you're already free
Put these chains on and rob you blind
When they co-op the movement
Don't trip just hold the line
Hold the line,
Hold the line

Hold the line
Hold the line
Don't pay ‘em no mind
Oh, hold the line

You gotta stay steadfast
Tread lightly
‘Cause they’re looking for a reason to knock you down
But you can't ask too politely
In the trenches you gotta get loud

You gotta stay steadfast
Tread lightly
‘Cause they’re looking for a reason to knock you down
But you can't ask too politely
In the trenches you gotta get loud

Hold the line
Hold the line
Don't pay ‘em no mind
Oh, hold the line
Hold the line

"Hold the line" could've easily been a RATM anthemic lyric.
Grandson is definitely channeling the spirit of Rage

[shiva]

I remember when I heard Rage the first time as clear as day. Sitting in our guitarists room smoking crappy ditch weed. It was unreal and inspiring. Thank you Mr. Morello for 30 years of brilliant music.

I just gave my 30 day notice as a Director in Corporate Healthcare, because I just can't continue to give corporate America more than I give my family. My time on this earth is precious, and I have to be more stringy with who gets that time. This song is the most perfect anthem to all who're in the same situation I find myself today. Hold the line...

[wychwoodmusic]

Can this collaboration please become a full project?!

[macneilruston]

This comment is the where the souls of Grandson fans go whenever someone thinks Grandson is Tom Morello's grandson. RIP

[anniniguez]

This is such a badass collaboration. I can't get enough of this song.

[bestxXbudXxlayf]

they cross themselves when taking paths she walked.... nice. Great song guys!!

[erinstalcup]

This song slaps and I'm annoyed it doesn't have more views

[mcmanmat]

Tom and grandson need to do more of these. This shit slaps.

[pawlpoche]

Any good riff, any good beat, any good vocal, is everything in one song

[matthewpaules]

Fantastic song with a critically important message!! Thank you we need more modern "labor songs" like this....especially when they JAM!! Great work.

[deadwoodplus]

Tom's riffs always sound like Tom's riffs. Legend

[gargigulos]

this song slaps and you two should definitely collaborate more. Great lyrics, great performance and delivery, great message. Tom's still doing his thing too.

[upyursmofo]

You heard the man... Hold the god damn line ❤️🙏❤️

[antwig]

This is a stone cold classic, will sound as good 50 yrs from now

[spookygoo]

in light of world events,
we need this song now, more than ever!!!
HOLD THE LINE!!!

[batturing]

all the folks thinking Jordan is Tom's grandson are wrong but in a very wholesome way, as they all seem very excited about how talented Tom's grandson is! I just hope they check out some of Grandson's music :)

[davidminshew]

I don't know Grandson, but I learned immediately he isn't Tom Morello's grandson. I also learned this is not a cover of Toto's "Hold the Line"! Kind of wish it were.

[marleyviper]

Absolutely smashing!!! And I’m so jealous, yet so proud that my little sister got to interview Tom for Blunt Magazine. 🤘🤘🤘

the amount of people who think this is tom morellos grandson is shocking to me
