J. Willoughby - Can't Hold Me Down (feat. Triple T) Lyrics

You can't hold me down
You can't hold me down

They'll call you names, break you down
But you can't let'em (You can't hold me down)
They'll try to tell you, exactly who you are
But you can't let'em (You can't hold me down)

Let me tell you
I've been kicked, I've been bruised
I've been broke and I've been used
I've been worn down, but I keep fighting
I've been told all my life that I won't amount to anything
Well honey, look at me now

Grinding, shining, making my way
Just look at me now
Grinding, shining, nothing in my way
You can't hold me down
You can't hold me down

Bitch, you can't hold me down
I'm still wearing the crown
So all you busted ass clown can go ahead and sit down
I just might be, melanin brown
But its my time right now (You can't hold me down)
It's my time right now (You can't hold me down)
From sun up, to sundown
I get to the bag, I get to the cheese
Worried about you, naw I'm worried about green
You can try to keep me down but all I do is succeed

Let me tell you
I've been kicked (Kicked), I've been bruised (Bruised)
I've been broke (Broken) and I've been used (Used)
I've been worn down (Worn down), but I keep fighting
I've been told all my life that I won't amount to anything
Well honey, look at me now

Grinding, shining, making my way
Just look at me now
Grinding (Grinding), shining (Shining), nothing in my way (Nothing in my way)
Not today (Not today)
You can't hold me down (You never could)
You can't (Can't, can't) hold me down (You never)

You can't let, nobody stop you
So don't forget, who you are
You can't let (You can't let), Nobody stop you (Nobody stop you)
So don't you let
No one get in your way

You can't hold me down
You can't hold me down no more
You never did, you never could
You can't do it no more

Let me tell you
I've been kicked, bruised, broke and I've been used
I've been worn down, but I keep fighting
I've been told all my life that I won't amount to anything
Well honey, look at me now
