I realize that I only get one chance
And I know I have to chase it to win
But there's no chances taken
With you around here
You won't let me fly
That's my fear for you and I
Just let me fly

Your gravity's holding me down
Cause you don't want me around
When I try and try to go
You keep me here and you say no
You're holding me down
You're almost making me drown
I still want you hear with me
But you need to set me free
Oh, gravity
I try to stand up with my head held high
And I try at least to reach for the sky
But then you come along
And crush my dreams
You're only out to get me
That's what it seems
Just let me be me

Your gravity's holding me down
Cause you don't want me around
When I try and try to go
You keep me here and you say no
You're holding me down
You're almost making me drown
I still want you hear with me
But you need to set me free
Oh, gravity

I realize that I only get one chance
And I know have to chase it to win
