    Intro:

    In my life
    I've seen
    It all
    Now it's time
    For me
    To pass
    On this
    Knowledge to you
    All my sisters
    My troubled sisters
    This is my
    Gift to you

    1st Verse:

    Been many days
    Couldn't take
    The pain
    Felt like
    I should take
    My life away
    See it everyday
    In every other
    Young sisters face
    (Young sister, sister)
    See'em cryin' out
    Life full of doubt
    Runnin' in the streets
    No self esteem
    Thinkin' that
    Use to be me
    What a shame

    B-Sect:

    And life
    Is a mutha
    It's hard
    To sit back
    And see
    The same thing
    Happen to me
    Happen to you
    This ain't love
    But here's
    The love
    I wanna give to you

    Chorus:

    It dosen't
    Matter what
    They say or do
    Don't let'em
    Get to you
    Don't be afraid
    You can, you can
    You can breakthrough
    Take what
    I've been through
    To see that
    You can't
    Hold a good
    Woman down

    Went through
    The same point
    Of givin' up
    I-I felt
    Like I had enough
    Went to the edge
    Of the ledge
    But I didn't jump
    "My Life"
    Will sum it up
    You can't
    Hold a good
    Woman down

    2nd Verse:

    When I use to see
    My daddy beat
    My mother down
    Down to her feet
    I use to say
    That ain't gon'
    Never be me
    (Never be me)
    Now look at you
    Bruised up
    From him
    Girl recognize
    You're better then
    Him tellin' you
    That he'll never hit
    You again
    Girl don't cry

    Repeat B-Sect 1x

    Repeat Chorus 1x

    Bridge:

    Through your changes
    I will hold your hand
    Use my songs
    As remedies
    Whenever you're feelin'
    Down or blue
    I'll be there for you
    Trust
    And know
    That I've been
    Where you're at
    Seen the things
    That you can see
    Lookin' at you
    Resembles me
    But you gotta
    Hold your own

    Repeat Chrous 1x

    Vamp:

    Can't hold me
    Down
    Can't hold me
    Down
    Can't hold me
    Down
    Can't hold me
    Down
    Can't hold me
    Down
    Can't hold me
    Down
    You can't hold me

    Can't hold me
    Down
    Can't hold me
    Down
    Can't hold me
    Down
    Can't hold me
    Down
    Can't hold me
    Down
    Can't hold me
    Down
    You can't hold me

    Outro:

    Their you have it
    I'm still with you
    My sisters
    My troubled sisters
    I still have troubles, too
    You're not alone
    I'll always be there
    For you
    Rock on

    You can't hold
    A good woman down
