Rolling Stones - Hold Back Lyrics
(m. jagger/k. richards)Hear the voice of experienceA word from the wiseGrab opportunityWhile youre alivecos if you follow the crowdcos if you act like a cowardYoull end up yelling out loudHold backYoull regret it somedayChoke on thatDont let it pass you byHold backYou better seize the hourYou look in your history booksYou delve in the pastStalin and rooseveltBoth took their chancesAnd george grasped the nettleIts do or dareFrom the banks of the delawareYeah dont hold backTrust your gut reactionBe bold, be bold babyIf you dont take chancesYou wont make advancesHold back yeahDont matter if you aint so good lookingIf you aint sharp as a bladeDont be afraidDont hold backLife is passing you byChoke on thatKeep on moving, keep on movingGotta run with the crowdYoull end up in the madhouseShouting the cold walls downYeah dont hold backHold backYoure messing with your lifeHold backYeah life goes by fast sometimesBe bold be bold be bold be bold babyYoure wasting your timeI want your attentionSo pin back your earsIve been climbing this tree of promisesFor over forty yearsYour vision get brokenAnd bust on the groundSo watch me, watch me reboundYeah dont hold backYoure wrecking your lifeChoke on thatDont hold backNo dont hold backYoure messing with your life
