When the fences have gone up and
Your defenses are down
Systems are ready to go
Crossed the line and then you'll know that... 
They can't hold you down, they can't hold you down
You've seen too much to not question why
Discovered the truth behind the lies
Understand enough to testify
Heard all sides to justify thatÂ…
They can't hold you down, they can't hold you down
They can't hold you down, they can't hold you down
Your voice is your emancipation
Choice is realization
Come on now don't be overwhelmed
Take control, let's find a way cuz'... 
They can't hold you down, they can't hold you down
No, they can't hold you down, they can't hold you down
Yeegoo! 
Come on now, Let's go! 
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
Are you waiting for global warming? -(Seriously now, we all have to
Understand that it's here and we need to make some serious changes in our
Consumption and lifestyles)
When exhaustions taken hold
Just one last push then you'll know
Corrupt systems overload
Take the lead cuz' here we go yeahÂ…
They can't hold you down
They can't hold you down
They can't hold you down
They'll never hold you down
They can't hold us down
They can't keep you down
They can't hold you down
They'll never hold us down
Don't let them hold you down
