Lake Effect - Can't Hold Me Down Lyrics

The truth 
They hide
What's right
Behind their lies
Control
Divide us
Until we feel
Self-righteous
They cancel you before
You're even famous
And if you're backing
The badge or our troops
You're a racist
Well, I keep getting up
You can't hold me down
My mind's all busted up
With these rules
You're throwin' 'round
If you think point and shame
Will make me obey your game
Well, I'm not giving up
And you can't hold me down
You can't hold me down
You can't hold me down
Oh no
The fear
They place
Across your face
Obey
As they say
'Cause your rights
Don't matter anyway
Burning holes
In your pockets
With inflation
Bet this song
Won't get played on
The radio stations
Well, I keep getting up
You can't hold me down
My mind's all busted up
With these rules
You're throwin' 'round
If you think point and shame
Will make me obey your game
Well, I'm not giving up
And you can't hold me down
Well, I keep getting up
You can't hold me down
My mind's all busted up
With these rules
You're throwin' 'round
If you think point and shame
Will make me obey your game
Well, I'm not giving up
And 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

The truth 
They hide
What's right
Behind their lies
Control
Divide us
Until we feel
Self-righteous
They cancel you before
You're even famous
And if you're backing
The badge or our troops
You're a racist
Well, I keep getting up
You can't hold me down
My mind's all busted up
With these rules
You're throwin' 'round
If you think point and shame
Will make me obey your game
Well, I'm not giving up
And you can't hold me down
You can't hold me down
You can't hold me down
Oh no
The fear
They place
Across your face
Obey
As they say
'Cause your rights
Don't matter anyway
Burning holes
In your pockets
With inflation
Bet this song
Won't get played on
The radio stations
Well, I keep getting up
You can't hold me down
My mind's all busted up
With these rules
You're throwin' 'round
If you think point and shame
Will make me obey your game
Well, I'm not giving up
And you can't hold me down
Well, I keep getting up
You can't hold me down
My mind's all busted up
With these rules
You're throwin' 'round
If you think point and shame
Will make me obey your game
Well, I'm not giving up
And 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
