Don't Let 'Em Bring You Down

James Bourne


Stop it
Don't you even say it
You don't have to take it
Just listen to the voice that whispers deep inside of you

Screw them
And their pearls of wisdom
You don't have to listen
If they can't understand you have a different
Point of view

And you don't wanna be like them

If you feel like you've been beaten
You are not alone
If you dream it you can achieve it
You can get to where you wanna go

I don't know why
Those idiots try to break me
Every time that they see me around

Don't let 'em bring you down
Don't let 'em bring you down

Jesus
What if I'm rejected

It'll be just like you expected

Back off marv
Your breath stinks just go home and brush your teeth

Help me
I'm surrounded here by losers

But beggars can't be choosers

It's your fault if you can't see that the world
Is at your feet

And you don't need to be like them

If you feel like you've been beaten
You are not alone
If you dream it you can achieve it
You can get to where you wanna go

I don't know why
Those idiots try to break me
Every time that they see me around
They laugh at me

They criticise the clothes I wear

They put dog shit in my hair

Invite me places that aren't there

And when I'm hurt they just don't care

But we can turn it all around
Get our feet back on the ground
Don't let 'em bring you down
Don't let 'em bring you down
