Cannot Keep Me Down (feat. Pato Banton)

A man should be able to walk down the streets my friend, without being held down

Theres a reason there so much fear my friends

Its just about keeping control

Still you can not keep me down

You can not keep me down

Still you can not keep me down

You can not keep me down

We've got to be able to walk down the streets my friend

Without looking over our back

Why not the same road for every man yeah?

Is it fear or is it just blame?

Sometimes the well just run dry

And all that's left is pain

 

You say you want to build a higher wall

When people out there feel the rain yeah!

........

Still you can not keep me down (cannot keep me down!)

You can not keep me down (cannot keep me down!)

Still you can not keep me down (cannot keep me down!)

You can not keep me down (cannot keep me down!)

(Pato Banton)

Me say them just can’t hold me, can’t control me

Eyes wide open so they can’t blindfold me

Can’t come fool me can’t footstool me

Jah Jah a me King so them can’t come rule me

Oh no no no!

They push me down and me bounce right back

Their spreading rumors when they don’t have the facts

See them a stress while me chill and relax

Cause my life is full of blessings to de max

I’m not a drinker not a smoker and I don’t sniff Coka Cola ~

To Jah and only Jah I dedicate my heart and Soula ~

I let him lead the way and all I simply do is follow

So I won’t sell out for English Pounds not even Yankee Dollar

Just gotta keep it movin’ always staying on track

Forward ever backward never ever be no doormat

Can’t figure me out, don’t know where I’m at,

Cause when they attack I never react Lord

No matter what them do me a go bounce right back

Still you can not keep me down (cannot keep me down!)

You can not keep me down, oh ah! (cannot keep me down!)

Still you can not keep me down yeah! (cannot keep me down!)

You can not keep me down (cannot keep me down!)

Still you can not keep me down (cannot keep me down!)

You can not keep me down (cannot keep me down!)

Still you can not keep me down!
