Cant Hold Me
Seeed Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can't hold me
That's why I'm still lonely
You can't hold me
That's why I'm still lonely
My rocket engine start to howl
I take off quick and you throw in the towel
I growl in your chicken house
Scare your fowl
I speak too fast nobody can follow, wanna race with me? Come, I beat you hollow!
Too fast for the dogs, I fly like a swallow
Too fast for the girls, I still stay alone
Always live in a different groove
That's life of rocket man on the move
I'm on a million, always get the jiggy on
Ready for the giddeon, no time to loose!
You can't hold me
That's why I'm still lonely
You can't hold me
That's why I'm still lonely
Dellé
Girl don't you try to hold me, I'll be gone, Faster than the roadrunner
So many lovely girls at home feel alone
Waiting for a younger lover
It's irresponsible of me, to keep my sweets for just one mother
That's why I'm always on the run, I can't stay longer than for one summer
Ready to overtake-racing like a speed devil
No time to take a breake-pacing at top level
Feel my body ake-searching for the one to hold me at the place I belong
Peter Fox
You can't hold me
That's why I'm still lonely
You can't hold me
That's why I'm still lonely
You can't hold me
That's why I'm still lonely
You can't hold me
That's why I'm still lonely
Boundzound
Please go away don't gimme a hard day
Am I speaking too fast for you?
Would you do, what I want you to?
I can't do nothing more for you
Find a barber to talk to, boo
I got to get rid of you
That dude doesn't have a clue
He's not in my crew
Tell him what you gonna do
Girl you stick like glue
I'm on my way, stepp of my shoe
I'm sorry, I don't feel for you
No more to say, have a nice day
The song "Can't Hold Me" by Seeed featuring Peter Fox, Dellé, and Boundzound is about the uncontainable and restless nature of its protagonists. The song is about people who live life on their own terms and refuse to be held back or tied down by anyone, thus leading a lonely existence. The first verse by Peter Fox is about how he's too fast for anyone to keep up with him, whether it's a race or a relationship. He compares his speed and agility to that of a rocket man on the move. He's always on the go and can't settle down, which makes him feel lonely. The chorus reinforces this theme by stating that the reason he's lonely is that nobody can hold him back.
The second verse by Dellé is about how he's always on the run and can't stay in one place for too long. He has many girls waiting for him, but he can't commit to just one, and that's why he's constantly moving. He races like a speed devil and goes at a top-level pace, which gives him no time to rest. He's searching for someone to hold him down, but until then, he'll continue living life on his terms. The final verse by Boundzound is about a girl who is trying to hold him back, but he doesn't feel the same way. He speaks too fast for her, and she can't keep up with him, so he wants her to go away. He tells her that he doesn't feel for her and that he's going to continue to live life his way.
The song portrays a common theme of individuality and the desire for freedom that is admired in popular culture. The ideas of speed and freedom have been mirrored in different expressions of youth culture such as music, fashion, and lifestyles.

My rocket engine start to howl
I am ready to blast off, with a lot of energy
I take off quick and you throw in the towel

So many lovely girls at home feel alone
There are many women who are interested in me, but I still feel lonely
Waiting for a younger lover

Please go away don't gimme a hard day
Please leave me alone and don't make my day difficult
Am I speaking too fast for you?
Do you have trouble keeping up with my fast pace?
Would you do, what I want you to?
Will you listen to me and follow my lead?
I can't do nothing more for you
I have nothing else to offer you or do for you
Find a barber to talk to, boo
Go find someone else to talk to
I got to get rid of you
I need to let you go
That dude doesn't have a clue
He doesn't know what he's talking about
He's not in my crew
He doesn't belong here with me and my friends
Tell him what you gonna do
Let him know what you plan to do
Girl you stick like glue
You are too clingy and won't let go
I'm on my way, stepp of my shoe
I am leaving, taking off and moving on
I'm sorry, I don't feel for you
I am not interested in you, I have no feelings for you
No more to say, have a nice day
I have nothing else to say, have a good day
You can't hold me
No one can hold me down or tie me down
That's why I'm still lonely
Because I am always on the move and cannot be tied down, I am still lonely
