Holding Me Down - Kelly Richey

If I got out of my way

And I stopped holding me down

I might just follow my heart

And ride it all over town

But my wheels they just spin

And drive me right in a ditch

I just can’t figure it out

And I can’t find the switch

Well I’ve been waiting so long

That I forgot what it means

I’m gonna follow my heart

And go wherever it leads

I’m gonna follow the sun

Going up and coming down

I’m gonna open both eyes

There must be something around

That makes me happy inside

‘Cause I don’t know how to be

And if I wait too long

I know my soul won’t break free

I keep pushing it down

And thinking I’m just a fool

Well, I might laugh out of place

I might lose all of my cool

If I said I’m happy inside

Would you even believe

I thought I’d learn how to lie

And that could set my soul free

I’m tired of wasting my time

‘Cause time ain’t nobody’s friend

And we just throw it away

Until tomorrow comes an end.
