So, don't hold me down
'Cause I'm keeping it cool, I'm thinking about you

So, don't hold me down, oh I, I don't play games

Tied down and looking around, I know what I want
Tied down and looking around, I know what I want
To the troubles all around me, I'm caught up and I'm barely breathin'

Oh I, I can't take it

And the week change
I need to make clear and just say
To just to let it all go and stay quiet when I feel like speaking

Oh, oh, 'cause I'm keeping it cool, I'm thinking about you
And I, I have been learning
Sticking around and if we should pay
Tied down, I'm looking around and I know what I want
Sticking around and if we should pay
So, please, please, please, won't you listen
So, don't hold me down, down, down, don't you hold me down
That I'm keeping it cool, I'm thinking about you
My mind done whatever it is
But I'm finding that holding on is harder than never leaving
Just take it easy, don't worry about a thing, mistakes
Sticking around and if we should pay
Oh I, oh, oh I, oh I, oh
