Hold Me Down

Stuck on the dark side, reachin' for daylight

Nothin' wrong with alright, but that ain't me

I made suggestions, answers to questions

All that they told me was let it be

'Cause all my life you know I was dreamin' about

About a way to find a way out

You know, you know

They can't hold me down

They said a man ain't meant to fly

But I'm reachin' up for the sky

You know, you know

They can't hold me down

There's obstacles in my life

I just can't seem to do right

But I keep tryin'

It seems they wanna knock me down, like Mya, still I rise

It won't happen this time, no, I've made up my mind

'Cause all my life you know I was dreamin' about

About a way to find a way out

You know, you know

They can't hold me down

They said a man ain't meant to fly

But I'm reachin' up for the sky

You know, you know

They can't hold me down

Mountains in my way, I can't lie, at times they seem too high

But I just climb

I told them that I won't stop till I reach the other side

They don't get to decide, no, I made up my mind

'Cause all my life you know I was dreamin' about

About a way to find a way out

You know, you know

They can't hold me down

They said a man ain't meant to fly

But I'm reachin' up for the sky

You know, you know

They can't hold me down

Nothin' stays the same, everything's meant to change

See, I'm meant to be free, so take your chains off me

I'm gonna turn it around, nothin' can stop me now

Some things are meant to be, this time, it's about me

'Cause all my life you know I was dreamin' about

About a way to find a way out

You know, you know

They can't hold me down

They said a man ain't meant to fly

But I'm reachin' up for the sky

You know, you know

They can't hold me down

Stuck on the dark side, reachin' for daylight

Nothin' wrong with alright, but that ain't me
