Don't let, don't let, don't let, yeah
Don't let, don't let
Bee-bo-duh-ba-day

Don't let them make you forget who you are (who you are)
Don't let them break you down (don't let them break you down)
Don't let them make you forget who you are (who you are)
Don't let them break you down (don't let them break you down)

Growing up is hard to do
Sometimes I w-w-wake up through the view
And some folks don't have a clue
About you or what you came to do

Heads up, you step in, child
Life is on a road, if you can smile
Follow your heart right now
You gon' work it out 'cause you've got style

When you feel like you do
You can soar to a higher place
If you act like it's just a phase
You will move at a faster pace

Don't let them make you forget who you are (who you are)
Don't let them break you down (don't let them break you down)
Don't let them make you forget who you are (who you are)
Don't let them break you down (don't let them break you down)

Growing's a constant thing
If plants just didn't grow, we'd stop living
Are all your intentions clean?
Instead of taking, what are you giving?

Don't act like a dairy queen
There's so much more to life than ice and cream
Things ain't always as they seem
Who really gives a - 'bout your new meme

Money will come and go (go)
But do you invest in your soul? (in your soul)
Let's try reaching for bigger goals (bigger goals)
Let's try living the path we chose (that we chose, path we chose)

Don't let them make you forget who you are (who you are)
Don't let them break you down (don't let them break you down)
Don't let them make you forget who you are (who you are)
Don't let them break you down (don't let them break you down)

They be the ones that front
Like you for the things you have or want
But they might be the ones that chump
All your aspirations to a stump

But they always the ones that drain
All your energy with all they mean
They all play the sickest games
Waiting to distract you from your aim

All of them got to go (oh, they got to go)
'Cause their peace kills your will to grow
Share your space with the ones that know
And they'll stick by your side for sure

Don't let them make you forget who you are (forget who you are)
Don't let them break you down
Don't let them make you forget who you are
Don't let them break you down

Don't let them make you forget who you are
Don't let them break you down (break you down)
Don't let them make you forget who you are (who you are)
Don't let them break you down, don't let them break you down

Sha sha sha ee ah (don't let them break you down)
Sha sha sha ee ah (break you down)
Taratatadida, taridaridaridada (sha sha sha ee ah)
Taratatadida (Sha sha sha ee ah, sharatareeah)

Don't let them break you down
Don't let them break you down
Don't let them break you down

Don't let them break you down
Don't let them break you down
Don't let them break you
