Hold Me Down
Flight Facilities feat. Stee Downes Lyrics

You know that I've got you thinking, today I wanna show you
I have your attention now and I want to show you how we can start fresh

How it would be to start again
Let's imagine starting over and see how it would feel

The ways we've had to live, the ways we've learned to grow, yeah
We've had to adapt to survive and mature as people

Just open up and be yourself
Don't be afraid to express who you truly are

Times that you feel this, I know you can take a step
When you experience this feeling, I believe you can make progress

Hope that you mean it, I can see it's your defence
I hope you truly want to change, and I can tell you are protecting yourself

Lost what I needed, I'm taking every chance
I've lost what I needed, so I'm seizing every opportunity that comes my way

I want it all, I can't pretend
I want to achieve everything I desire, and I'm not going to pretend otherwise

It's never gonna hold me down
I will never let anything hold me back

And you know it
I believe you understand my determination

It's only gonna help me see
This attitude will only benefit me in the long run

Turning my life around
I'm changing my life for the better

No I never listened, to the things you said to me
I didn't take your advice before, but now I am

Coz I can belong and I can believe
I can be part of something and have faith in it

If we can be strong and we can't concede
We need to be resolute and not give up

Just giving it all for what you believe,
We're dedicating ourselves to what we believe in

I know it's serious, it's gotta be
We recognize the gravity of this situation

I know you got your reasons, but I could've told you
I understand your perspective, but I could've given you advice

That this could never be the end
We can't let this be the end of our journey

Sometimes we have to change, just take control
We need to be flexible and seize control of our lives

Open up and breathe again
Let's open up and experience life with all its ups and downs

Now that you feel this, let's take a stand
You're experiencing this feeling, so let's make a decision

Know that you need it, I can see it's your demands
I realize you need this, and it's something you require

True to my word, I'm taking every chance
I'm genuine in my intentions and making the most of every opportunity

We can't let this feeling hold us down
We can't be overwhelmed by this feeling and let it stop us from progressing

The world has got you spinning round and round
The world is chaotic and can make it difficult to focus

Don't walk away
Don't give up, stick with it

But you can't let these reasons hold you back
Don't let these excuses prevent you from moving forward

Another day
Tomorrow's a new day

You want it all so you gon' have to find your way
You want to achieve everything, so you'll have to pave your own path
