Not Afraid

I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid

To take a stand, to take a stand

(Yeah, it's been a ride)

Everybody, everybody

(I guess I had to)

Come take my hand, come take my hand

(Go to that place to get to this one)

We'll walk this world together through the storm

(Now some of you)

Whatever weather, cold or warm

(Might still be in that place)

Just lettin' you know that you're not alone

(If you're tryin' to get out)

Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road

(Just follow me, I'll get you there)

You can try and read my lyrics off of this paper before I lay 'em

But you won't take the sting out these words before I say 'em

'Cause ain't no way I'ma let you stop me from causing mayhem

When I say I'ma do something, I do it, I don't give a damn what you think

I'm doin' this for me, so fuck the world

Feed it beans, it's gassed up if it thinks it's stopping me

I'ma be what I set out to be, without a doubt, undoubtedly

And all those who look down on me, I'm tearing down your balcony

No if, ands, or buts, don't try to ask him why or how can he

From "Infinite" down to that last "Relapse" album

He's still shittin' whether he's on salary, paid hourly

Until he bows out or he shits his bowels out of him

Whichever comes first, for better or worse

He's married to the game, like a fuck-you for Christmas

His gift is a curse, forget the earth, he's got

The urge to pull his dick from the dirt and fuck the whole universe

I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid

To take a stand, to take a stand

Everybody, everybody

Come take my hand, come take my hand

We'll walk this route together through the storm

Whatever weather, cold or warm

Just lettin' you know that you're not alone

Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road

Okay, quit playin' with the scissors and shit and cut the crap

I shoudldn't have to rhyme these words in a rhythm for you to know it's a wrap

You said you was the king, you lied through your teeth

For that fuck your fillings, instead of getting crowned you're getting capped

And to the fans, I'll never let you down again, I'm back

I promise to never go back on that promise, in fact

Let's be honest, that last "Relapse" CD, was "eh"

Perhaps I ran the max and since hit the ground

Relax, I ain't goin' back to that now

All I'm tryin' to say is get back, click clack, pow

'Cause I ain't playin' around, it's the game called circlin'

I don't know how, I'm way too rough to back down

But I think I'm still tryin' to figure this crap out

Thought I had it mapped out, but I guess I didn't

This fucking black cloud still follows me around

But it's time to exorcise these demons, these motherfuckers are doing jumping-jacks now

I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid

To take a stand, to take a stand

Everybody, everybody

Come take my hand, come take my hand

We'll walk this route together through the storm

Whatever weather, cold or warm

Just lettin' you know that you're not alone

Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road

And I just can't keep living this way

So starting today, I'm breaking out of this cage

I'm standing up, I'ma face my demons

I'm manning up, I'ma hold my ground

I've had enough, now I'm so fed up

Tryin' to put my life back together right now

It was my decision to get clean, I did it for me

Admittedly, I probably did it subliminally for you

So I could come back a brand new me, you helped see me through

And don't even realize what you did, believe me you

I've been through the ringer, but take it through little to the middle finger

I think I got a tear in my eye, I feel like the king of

My world, haters can make like bees with no stingers

And drop dead, no more beef flingers

No more drama, from now on I promise to only focus

On handlin' my responsibilities as a father

I solemnly swear to always treat this roof like my daughter

And raise it, you couldn't lift a single shingle on it

'Cause the way I feel, I'm strong enough to go to the club

Or the corner pub and lift the whole liquour counter up

'Cause I'm raisin' the bar, I shoot for the moon

But I'm too busy gazin' at stars I feel amazin'

And I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid

To take a stand, to take a stand

Everybody, everybody

Come take my hand, come take my hand

We'll walk this route together through the storm

Whatever weather, cold or warm

Just lettin' you know that you're not alone

Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road
