Can't Keep a Good Kid Down

Lately I just don't know
But then again maybe I'm not supposed to
This feeling comes and goes
But in the end I will want are answers
But in return all I get are questions
What is that, what is truth
What is our motivation
Is it to lay down in the street
Protest but no one knows what they mean
You can't keep a good kid down
One who speaks out loud
One whose hope he lets out
Let us all keep our ears to the ground
Smile when we hear the sound
You can't keep a good kid down
I'm tired of only answers
Pregnant with lifeless questions
Is this what you call freedom
Now someone tell me what we're free from
Is it fear, is it understanding
A generation afraid of comprehending
He's just here to raise a question
Make you think cause he thinks
That it's out of the equation
You can't keep a good kid down
One who speaks out loud
One whose hope he lets out
Let us all keep our ears to the ground
Smile when we hear the sound
You can't keep a good kid down
Always
We are always on my mind
On my mind
Always
We are always on my mind
On my mind
You can't keep a good kid down
One who speaks out loud
One whose hope he lets out
Let us all keep our ears to the ground
Smile when we hear the sound
You can't keep a good kid down
You got what you wanted
But you ain't got enough
You took from, you took from
