Jake Ba** - Don't Let Anything Hold You Back lyrics

Being a little different can be cool Being the exception to the rule Don't be pacified by things you're told you can't do Show up with an “I can attitude” Don't be babied and sheltered from the world Don't ever say you can't get that girl Always say it's them, not you It's tough when your parents first hear the news The system is well intentioned But not always so worth defending They always have to use a label Calling us unfortunate or unable Don't let anything hold you back Don't let anyone say, facts are facts Open your mind, open your eyes You can be anything you want if you just try You have the choice to ignore advice From those who think they know it all, they don't Follow your intuition, your instincts They'll guide you in the right directions Every road you take there's a lesson A story of perfect imperfections There's so many out there they label autistic Who said their goals were too unrealistic I've seen it personally first hand The true success of a fine young man Don't let anything hold you back Don't let anyone say facts are facts, don't let ‘em say it People I admire, like Jenny McCarthy It's beautiful she pours so much into her child I just know, he'll grow to be something And to the millions of parents who get the news Keep on trying, there's so much you can do I'm no amba**ador or poster child Some say I've overcome being insufficient Just had to take a stand, take a position Keep on keepin' on, never lose direction Never let anyone block the road you're heading Pa** them by, hold your head high From time to time we all fall off track But don't let anything hold you back Don't let anything hold you back Don't let anyone say facts are facts, don't let them
