Afraid

What they say, what they say, what they say

What they say, what they say, what they say

You speak out, all you feel is defiance

All you need is some self reliance

'Cause 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 special something

And we keep on runnin

We all have the choice to take the lead or follow

I want to feel the light shine on me

So afraid of what people might say

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

So afraid of what people might say

But that's all ok you soon get strong enough

So afraid of what people might say

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

So afraid of what people might say

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

You wanna spread your wings but you're not sure

Dont wanna leave your comfort just 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

We all have the choice to take the lead or follow

I want to feel the light shine on me

So afraid of what people might say

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

So afraid of what people might say

But that's all ok you soon get strong enough

So afraid of what people might say

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

So afraid of what people might say

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

[Attitude]

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 mine 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

So afraid of what people might say

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

So afraid of what people might say

But that's all ok you soon get strong enough

So afraid of what people might say

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

So afraid of what people might say

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

So afraid of what people might say

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

So afraid of what people might say

But that's all ok you soon get strong enough

So afraid of what people might say

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