You're not tough enough
You're not tough enough to lead
You better stand for something
Or else you'll fall for anything
You're not good enough
You are way out of your league
You have heard these words a thousand times
So what do you believe

Hold your head up
Hold your head up high
Where no one can bring it down
Hold your head up
Hold your head up high
Don't you foul up now

Swimming in a sea of insecurities
I know it's hard to keep breathing
Can you rise above the flood of flaws only you can see
Hold your head up high for me

Are you strong enough?
Are you strong enough to lead?
And all behind you and the voice inside
Keeps telling you your weak
Are you crumbling?
Are you crumbling beneath?
Made up all your dreams of everything
They told you you can't be
Hold your head up
Hold your head up high
Where no one can bring it down
Hold your head up
Hold your head up high
Don't you foul up now

Swimming in a sea of insecurities
I know it's hard to keep breathing
Can you rise above the flood of flaws only you can see
Hold your head up high for me
Hold your head up high for me

No one can claim to be perfect
And if they do it's a lie
So if you think it's worth it
Go on, go on and reach for the sky

Hold your head up
Hold your head up high
Where no one can bring it down
Hold your head up
Hold your head up high
Don't you foul up

Hold your head up
Hold your head up high
Where no one can bring it down
Hold your head up
Hold your head up high
Don't you foul up now
Swimming in a sea of insecurities
I know it's hard to keep breathing
Can you rise above the flood of flaws only you can see
Hold your head up high for me
Hold your head up high for me
