[00:00.500] | Feels like a close, it's coming to |
[00:03.840] | *********** am I gonna do? |
[00:07.400] | It's too late to start over |
[00:11.510] | This is the only thing I, thing I know |
[00:14.320] | Sometimes I feel like all I ever do is |
[00:16.030] | Find different ways to word the same old song |
[00:18.210] | Ever since I came along |
[00:19.390] | From the day the song called ''Hi! My Name Is''dropped |
[00:21.580] | Started thinking my name was fall |
[00:23.460] | Cause anytime things went wrong |
[00:24.790] | I was the one who they would blame it on |
[00:26.520] | The media made me the equivalent of a modern-day Genghis Kahn |
[00:30.150] | Tried to argue it was only entertainment, dawg |
[00:32.570] | Gangsta? Naw, courageous *********** |
[00:34.160] | Had to change my style, they said I'm way too soft |
[00:37.060] | And I sound like AZ and Nas, out came the claws |
[00:39.280] | And the thing's been out since then |
[00:40.850] | But up until the instant that I've been against it |
[00:42.750] | It was ingrained in me that I wouldn't amount to a ***********tstain I thought |
[00:45.710] | No wonder I had to unlearn everything that my brain was taught |
[00:48.840] | Do I really belong in this game? I pondered |
[00:50.500] | I just wanna play my part, should I make waves or not? |
[00:52.980] | So back and forth in my brain the tug of war wages on |
[00:55.530] | And I don't wanna seem ungrateful or disrespect the artform I was raised upon |
[00:59.230] | But sometimes you gotta take a loss |
[01:00.670] | And have people rub it in your face before you get made pissed off |
[01:03.840] | And keep pluggin', it's your only outlet |
[01:05.530] | And your only outfit, so you know they gonna talk about it |
[01:07.930] | Better find a way to counter it quick and make it, ah |
[01:11.060] | Feel like I've already said this a kabillion eighty times |
[01:13.190] | How many times can I say the same thing different ways that rhyme? |
[01:16.570] | What I really wanna say is, is there anyone else that can relate to my story? |
[01:20.040] | Bet you feel the same way I felt when I was in the same place you are, |
[01:22.340] | when I was afraid to… |
[01:25.470] | Afraid to make a single sound |
[01:27.220] | Afraid I will never find a way out, out, out |
[01:30.670] | Afraid I never before |
[01:34.380] | I didn't wanna go another round |
[01:37.500] | An angry man's power will shut you up |
[01:41.010] | Trip wires fill this house with tip-toe love |
[01:44.460] | Run out of excuses with every word |
[01:47.790] | So here I am and I will not run |
[01:53.150] | Guts over fear, the time is here |
[02:00.000] | Guts over fear, I shall not tear |
[02:06.620] | For all the times I let you push me around and push me down |
[02:12.490] | Guts over fear, guts over fear |
[02:17.880] | |
[02:19.340] | Feels like a close, it's coming to |
[02:22.510] | *********** am I gonna do? |
[02:26.200] | It's too late to start over |
[02:30.340] | This is the only thing I, thing I know |
[02:33.370] | It's like I was there once, single parents |
[02:35.560] | Hate your appearance, did you struggle to find your place in this world? |
[02:38.520] | And the pain spawns all the anger on |
[02:40.180] | But it wasn't until I put the pain in songs learned who to aim it on |
[02:43.060] | That I made a spark, started to spit hard as ***********t |
[02:45.130] | Learned how to harness it while the reins were off |
[02:48.390] | And there was a lot of bizarre ***********t, but the crazy part |
[02:50.410] | Was soon as I stopped saying "I gave a ***********" |
[02:52.240] | Haters started to appreciate my art |
[02:54.400] | And it just breaks my heart to look at all the pain I've caused |
[02:56.940] | But what am I gonna do when the rage is gone? |
[02:58.600] | The lights go out in the trailer park |
[03:00.400] | And the window that was closing and there's nowhere else I can go with flows in |
[03:03.620] | And I'm frozen cause there's no more emotion for me to pull from |
[03:05.510] | Just a bunch of playful songs that I made for fun |
[03:08.010] | So to the break of dawn here I go recycling the same old song |
[03:11.460] | But I'd rather make "Not Afraid 2" than another *********in' "We Made You" uh |
[03:14.560] | Now I don't wanna seem indulgent when I discuss my lows and my highs |
[03:17.770] | My demise and my uprise, pray to God |
[03:19.630] | I just opened enough eyes later on |
[03:21.460] | Gave you the supplies and the tools to hopefully use it to make you strong |
[03:24.610] | And enough to lift yourself up when you feel like I felt |
[03:27.010] | Cause I can't explain to y'all how dang exhausted my legs felt |
[03:29.750] | Just having to balance my damn self |
[03:31.330] | Those dang eggshells, I was made to walk |
[03:33.310] | But thank you ma, 'cause that gave me the |
[03:34.920] | Strength to cause Shady-mania, so many empty that stadium |
[03:37.610] | At least I made it out of that house and a found a place in this world when the day was done |
[03:41.810] | So this is for every kid who all's they ever did was dreamt that one day they would just get accepted |
[03:45.240] | I represent him or her, anyone similar, you are the reason I made this song |
[03:49.610] | Everything you're scared to say don't be afraid to say no more |
[03:52.080] | From this day on forward, just let them a-holes talk |
[03:54.420] | Take it with a grain of salt and eat their ********* faces off |
[03:58.660] | The legend of the angry blonde lives on through you when I'm gone |
[04:01.190] | And to think I was... |
[04:03.630] | Afraid to make a single sound |
[04:06.620] | Afraid I will never find a way out, out, out |
[04:10.020] | Afraid I never before |
[04:11.770] | I didn't wanna go another round |
