I watch as his fist meets her face.
she cant explain why but she knows its unavoidable.
On that day her planes filled the sky
And under her breath I heard her say: You cant hold me down
You cant hold me down (whoa whoa)
You cant hold me down (no)
Standing on the edge of a high rise,
I can't explain it but I feel so invincible.
All signs say that I can't be broken.
You didn't believe when you heard me say: you can't hold me down.
You cant hold me down (whoa whoa)
You cant hold me down (no)
I finally decided to stop keeping score.
I used to be so scared, but I'm not afraid anymore.
You cant hold me down (whoa whoa)
I should have left long ago, but it wasn't my time.
You cant hold me
I used to beat myself up, but I'm just not ashamed anymore.
No matter what you do to stay away from me, just know:
I'm still runnin, i'm runnin, i'm runnin
I'm still comin, i'm comin, i'm comin
You cant hold me down
You cant hold me down (whoa whoa)
You cant hold me down (no)
I finally decided to stop keeping score.
I used to be so scared, but I'm not afraid anymore.
You cant hold me down (whoa whoa)
You cant hold me down (whoa whoa)
You cant hold me
You cant hold me down (no)
You cant hold me
