Hold Me Down - Florez

I can’t tell no lies

My blood’s been shed

Missing your eyes

Your hands were red

And my shades are drawn

My head hung in shame

And I might be wrong

But it’s you I blame

And my strength is like a never-ebbing tide

And in my weakness I can see my pride

And I’ve let you beat me down

And I’m at a loss for words and I can’t speak

So I will scream and I will scream til I get weak

But if you kick me while I’m down

I will quicken my resolve until your punishment is through

But I won’t be blinded by your hate, instead, I’ll wait and let

it conquer you

I’ll be stronger cause I will have survived

What you put me through

Hold me down

Until I break free and I will fly

But I won’t come down

Until I touch the highest reaches of the sky

But hold me down

Underwater til I can not breathe

But I, I won’t drown

Cause I will rise up and I’ll be redeemed

My eyes straight ahead

And my head’s on straight

I meant what I said

I’m a new man today

And my strength is surging like a rising tide

And my weakness been replaced swelling pride

And I’ve finally come around

And my mouth’s so full of words that I can’t speak

So I will scream and I will scream til I get weak

But if you kick me while I’m down

I will quicken my resolve until your punishment is through

But I won’t be blinded by your hate, instead, I’ll wait and let

it conquer you

I’ll be stronger cause I will have survived

What you put me through

Hold me down

Until I break free and I will fly

But I won’t come down

Until I touch the highest reaches of the sky

But hold me down

Underwater til I can not breathe

But I, I won’t drown

Cause I will rise up and I’ll be redeemed

Hold me down

Until I break free and I will fly

But I won’t come down

Until I touch the highest reaches of the sky

But hold me down

Underwater til I can not breathe

But I, I won’t drown

Cause I will rise up and I’ll be redeemed
