Hold me down Lyrics by Eric B.

2015

[Verse 1] :
Stuck on the dark side reaching for daylight
Nothing wrong with alright but that ain't me
I made suggestions, answers to questions
All that they've told me was : let it be

[Hook] :
Cause all my life, you know I was dreaming 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 reaching out for the sky
You know, you know they can't hold me down

[Verse 2] :
Countless obstacles my life, I just can't seem to do right, but I keep tryin'
It seems they wanna knock me down like [?] and still I rise
It won't happen this time (Noo)
I made up my mind

[Hook] : Cause all my life, you know I was dreaming 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 reaching out for the sky
You know, you know they can't hold me down

[Verse 3] :
Mountains in my way I can't lie
In times they seem too high, but I just climb
I told 'em that I won't stop 'till I reach the other side
They don't get to decide (Nooo)
I made up my mind

[Hook] :
Cause all my life, you know I was dreaming 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 reaching out for the sky
You know, you know they can't hold me down

[Verse 4] :
Nothing stay's the same
Everything's meant to change
See I'm meant to be free
So take your chains off me
I'm gon' turn it around
Nothing can stop me now
Some things are meant to be
This time it's about me

[Hook] :
Cause all my life, you know I was dreaming 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 reaching out for the sky
You know, you know they can't hold me down

[Outro] :
Stuck on the dark side reaching for daylight
Nothing wrong with alright but that ain't me
