Feels like a close it's coming to
|
Fuck am I gonna do
|
It's too late to start over
|
This is the only thing I thing I know
|
Sometimes I feel like all I ever do is
|
Find different ways to word the same
|
old song
|
Ever since I came along
|
From the day the song called
|
Hi My Name Is
|
dropped Started thinking my name was fall
|
Cause anytime things went wrong
|
I was the one who they would blame it on
|
The media made me the equivalent of
|
a modern day Genghis Kahn
|
Tried to argue it was only entertainment
|
dawg Gangsta Naw
|
courageous balls
|
Had to change my style
|
they said I'm way too soft
|
And I sound like A Z and Nas
|
out came the claws
|
And the thing's been out since then
|
But up until the instant that
|
I've been against it
|
It was ingrained in me that
|
I wouldn't amount to a shitstain I thought
|
No wonder I had to unlearn everything
|
that my brain was taught
|
Do I really belong in this game I pondered
|
I just wanna play my part
|
should I make waves or not
|
So back and forth in my brain
|
the tug of war wages on
|
And I don't wanna seem ungrateful
|
or disrespect the artform I was raised upon
|
But sometimes you gotta take a loss
|
And have people rub it in your face
|
before you get made pissed off
|
And keep pluggin'
|
it's your only outlet
|
And your only outfit
|
so you know they gonna talk about it
|
Better find a way to counter it
|
quick and make it ah
|
Feel like I've already said
|
this a kabillion eighty times
|
How many times can I say
|
the same thing different ways that rhyme
|
What I really wanna say is
|
is there anyone else
|
who can relate to my story
|
Bet you feel the same way I felt
|
when I was in the same place you are
|
I was afraid to make a single sound
|
Afraid I will never find
|
a way out out out
|
Afraid I never before
|
I didn't wanna go another round
|
An angry mans power will shut you up
|
Trip wires fill this house with tip toe love
|
Run out of excuses with every word
|
So here I am and I will not run
|
Guts over fear the time is here
|
Guts over fear I shall not tear
|
For all the times I let you push me around
|
and let you keep me down
|
now I Guts over fear guts over fear
|
Feels like a close it's coming to
|
Fuck am I gonna do
|
It's too late to start over
|
This is the only thing I thing I know
|
It's like I was there once single parents
|
Hate your appearance
|
did you struggle to
|
find your place in this world
|
And the pain spawns all the anger on
|
But it wasn't until I put the
|
pain in songs learned
|
who to aim it on
|
That I made a spark
|
started to spit hard as shit
|
Learned how to harness it
|
while the reins were off
|
And there was a lot of bizarre shit
|
but the crazy part
|
Was soon as I stopped saying
|
I gave a fuck
|
Haters started to appreciate my art
|
And it just breaks my heart
|
to look at all the pain I've caused
|
But what am I gonna do
|
when the rage is gone
|
The lights go out in the trailer park
|
And the window that was closing
|
and there's nowhere else
|
I can go with flows in
|
And I'm frozen cause
|
there's no more emotion for me to pull from
|
Just a bunch of playful songs
|
that I made for fun
|
So to the break of dawn here I go
|
recycling the same old song
|
But I'd rather make
|
Not Afraid 2
|
than another make mothafuckin'
|
We Made You uh
|
Now I don't wanna seem indulgent
|
when I discuss my lows and my highs
|
My demise and my uprise pray to God
|
I just opened enough eyes later on
|
Gave you the supplies and the tools
|
to hopefully use it to make you strong
|
And enough to lift yourself up
|
when you feel like I felt
|
Cause I can't explain to y'all
|
how dang exhausted my legs felt
|
Just having to balance my damn self
|
Those dang eggshells
|
I was made to walk
|
But thank you ma
|
'cause that gave me the
|
Strength to cause Shady mania
|
so many empty that stadium
|
At least I made it out of that house
|
and a found a place in this world
|
when the day was done
|
So this is for every kid who all's
|
they ever did was dreamt that
|
one day they would just get accepted
|
I represent him or her
|
or anyone similar you are the reason
|
that I made this song
|
Everything you're scared
|
to say don't be afraid to say no more
|
From this day on forward
|
just let them a holes talk
|
Take it with a grain of salt
|
and eat their fucking faces off
|
The legend of the angry blonde
|
lives on through you when I'm gone
|
And to think I was
|
I was afraid to make a single sound
|
Afraid I will never find
|
a way out out out
|
Afraid I never before
|
I didn't wanna go another round
|
An angry mans power will shut you up
|
Trip wires fill this house with tip toe love
|
Run out of excuses with every word
|
So here I am and I will not run
|
Guts over fear the time is here
|
Guts over fear I shall not tear
|
For all the times I let you push me around
|
and let you keep me down
|
now I Guts over fear guts over fear
|
|
