Hold Me Down - Ben Kweller

Once upon sometime ago I swam upon the untold

Taking all my orders from some leader I don’t know

Lots of this went on as their weakness intensified

Power only loves itself and that’s the reason why

You can’t hold me down, you can’t hold me down

You can’t hold me down, you can’t hold me down

Fly above the people who need better angels more than you

Spread your wings like an eagle now, heal the heartless view

We don’t need apologies, actually it’s nothing new

Love only powers love, unlock the love in you

You can’t hold me down, you can’t hold me down

You can’t hold me down, you can’t hold me down

You can’t hold me down, you can’t hold me down

You can’t hold me down, you can’t hold me down

Take a look at your situation

And maybe you’ll come around

It’s not just me

You can’t hold me down, you can’t hold me down

You can’t hold me down, you can’t hold me down

You can’t hold me down, you can’t hold me down (it's not just me)

You can’t hold me down, you can’t hold me down (no, it’s not just me)

You can’t hold me down, you can’t hold me down (one day you’re gonna see

It’s not just me)
