You Can’t hold me down

You can’t hold me down

You can’t hold me

You can beat me and drag me through the mud

You can’t hold me down

You can call me every name you can ever think of

You can’t hold me down

For I am human

I dare to laugh, lean, dream, fly

For my spirit dares to soar

I must obey it’s calling

Yes, I must obey

For to let you hold me down would be worse than death

For to let you try and break my will

Sorry, my will can not be broken

My spirit can not be crushed

Again my spirit says go

I must obey it’s calling

No matter what you do

No matter what you say

Remember, I have a spirit

I must be free

No, you can’t hold me

No matter your comments

No matter the pain

You can’t bind me

You can’t chain me

For I dare to dream

You can’t hold me down

NO, YOU CAN’T HOLD ME
