Nelly Furtado - Afraid

What to say, what to say, what to say

What to say, what to say, what to say

Verse 1

You speak out, all you feel is defiance

Alls you need is some self reliance

Cuz this world is gonna always try us

And all you wanted was to run for cover

**And who's looking for yourself and no other**

We're all searching for that special something

And we keep on runnin

Bridge

We all have the choice to take the lead or follow

I want to feel the light shine on me

Chorus

So afraid of what people might say

But that's all ok cuz you're only human

So afraid of what people might say

But that's all ok cuz this song is strong enough

So afraid of what people might say

But that's all ok cuz you're only human

So afraid of what people might say

You're going to break so please don't do it

Verse 2

You wanna spread your wings but you're not sure

Dont wanna leave your comfort jus wanna find a cure

We afraid of who we see in the mirror

We wanna let go but it feels too pure

Who wants to be alone in this world

You look around and all you see is hurt

But the light it always finds us

If it moved with a little trust

Bridge

Chorus

(Attitude Rap):

**And now I know to define what shine is**

I don't need a Rolex to what the time is

You got yours lemme find what mines is

I'm a survivor

Look how strong my mind is

I stand on my own

It's all me

Regardless

So wherever they call me

I'm a leader not a follower

And I'd rather be paid and popular

Grind homie, get your dollars on

We in the belly of the beast

That already swallowed us

Nelly:

It's the end of the world and we know it

It's the end of the world.

and we know it

Chorus
