[Prelude]
You can't hold me down
You can't hold me down
[Verse 1]
Why you all want to stress me for?
Can't a young man have fun anymore?
Been to more places than you ever saw
Why you always want to keep me poor?
Can't my world be cooler than yours?
Keep a smoke in between my jaws
Or is it my job to point out my flaws
Just because you got your mind on pause?
[Chorus]
'Cause I ain't got no time tonight
For all the things that just ain't right
Like traffic lights and crowded trains
Tonight it just won't be the same
You can't hold me down
Ain't gonna be pushed around
You can't hold me down
Ain't gonna be pushed around
[Verse 2]
Why you always want to try and stop me?
I don't think you can really top me
Can't my car be quicker than yours?
Or is it my job to always wipe floors?
Don't blame me for the way I live
My work is done, it's time to give
I don't think you should get all mad
Just because I want to groove so bad
You can sit down and let the world
Bring you down in that spiral twirl
You can't penetrate the crust
And rise above the ice like us
You can't hold me down
You can't hold me down
[Verse 1]
Why you all want to stress me for?
Can't a young man have fun anymore?
Been to more places than you ever saw
Why you always want to keep me poor?
Can't my world be cooler than yours?
Keep a smoke in between my jaws
Or is it my job to point out my flaws
Just because you got your mind on pause?
[Chorus]
'Cause I ain't got no time tonight
For all the things that just ain't right
Like traffic lights and crowded trains
Tonight it just won't be the same
You can't hold me down
Ain't gonna be pushed around
You can't hold me down
Ain't gonna be pushed around
[Verse 2]
Why you always want to try and stop me?
I don't think you can really top me
Can't my car be quicker than yours?
Or is it my job to always wipe floors?
Don't blame me for the way I live
My work is done, it's time to give
I don't think you should get all mad
Just because I want to groove so bad
You can sit down and let the world
Bring you down in that spiral twirl
You can't penetrate the crust
And rise above the ice like us
