[Verse 1]
Oh I, don't know what to say
And I, have told you lately
That I'm tired of talking about the same old reasons we change
Just take it easy, don't worry about a thing these days mistake

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm keeping it cool, now thinking about you
Sticking around and if we should pay
Tied down, I'm looking around
I know what I want, so don't hold me down
Oh I, I don't play games
And I, I have been learning...

[Verse 2]
To just to let it all go and stay quiet when I feel like speaking
My mind done whatever it is I need to make clear and just say

[Chorus]
That I'm keeping it cool, now thinking about you
Sticking around and if we should pay
Tied down, I'm looking around
And I know what I want, so don't hold me down
Down
Down
Don't you hold me down
[Chorus]
Whoa, 'cause I'm keeping it cool, now thinking about you
Sticking around and if we should pay
Tied down, I'm looking around
And I know what I want, so don't hold me down

[Outro]
Oh I, I can't take it
So please, please, please, won't you listen?
To the troubles all around me
I'm caught up and I'm barely breathing
But I'm finding that holding on is harder than never leaving
Oh I, oh, oh, oh
Oh I, oh I, oh, oh
