DON'T HOLD BACK song lyrics
by Joel Sattler


When I was just a kid
didn't matter what I did
they didn't like my kind of sound
they only want to put me down

they didn't like me or my friends
they didn't want to see again
they didn't like the clothes we wear
they didn't like our Beatle hair

But we cut loose on friday night
we broke free of the neon lights
we broke out of the epic fail
we broke out of their goddam jail

don't hold back
don't hold back
I'm telling you
don't hold back
when they come to chain you up
don't give up don't give up
don't hold back

they told us we were too loud
they told us we were too proud
tried to make us beg for more
sent us off to goddam war

tried to make us sell our souls
tried to take over control
tried to make our spirits break
told us we were their mistake

built a prison round our hearts
said we oughta do what's smart
spend your twenty years in school
to work the day shift with the fools

don't hold back
don't hold back
I'm telling you
don't hold back
when they come to mess you up
don't give up don't give up
don't hold back

now we're free
you and me
don't be afraid
we got it made

don't hold back
I'm telling you
don't hold back
when they come to chain you up
don't give up don't give up
don't hold back
