​afraid Lyrics by ​rose the ​firebreather

V13ION

2020

(Chorus)
I've been writing shit to get me through the day
There's horizons on the way
I'm not scared of anything
(Verse 1)
Don't know who I'll be but I know that I'm blooming
They don’t know me at all but they keep on assuming
Winning just cause I refuse to be losing
Other worlds feeling lucid
I've been gettin' lit, gettin' paid
Writing ways to better days, living truth like renegade
Give me all the accolades, light on every cover page
I deserve this shit, I paid with pain
I've been bleeding all across the page
Nothing left to lose, I'm on my way
Nothing left to lose, I'm on my way
(Chorus)
I've been writing shit to get me through the day
There's horizons on the way
I'm not scared of anything
(Verse 2)
I'm not scared, I'm not scared, I'm not scared
I'm not scared of anything right
I'm afraid to find my place sometimes
Afraid I'll never find my place sometimes
Afraid to see the light of day sometimes
Afraid the wind might take me away sometimes
Afraid the mountain won’t peak sometimes
Afraid the climb was just steep sometimes
It wasn’t really deep at times
Afraid the curtains will fall and the stage will be empty and all will be forgotten
And the story wasn’t true
Afraid I was never no better than you
Afraid I was made from that darkness too
Used to be afraid of myself but that book mad overdue
It's good riddens to you and goodbye
On my way to the sky, eyes locked on the light
Taking over the night, keep up the fight
Keep up, keep up the fight
Used to be afraid to go in the basement all alone
Didn't recognize of the corners of my psyche or my home
Didn't know how to find myself when the world felt so crowded
Memories of other lives so scattered, surrounded
I was lost in the void, never no guarantee
I would find myself or lose reality, maybe both
Didn't know how to coast
I was sinking and diving, dragon from the deep
Didn't get no sleep
Cold to the bone like my blood lost it’s heat
I sat still forgetting that I don’t take defeat
I don't take defeat
(Outro)
I was afraid of myself, didn't know where I came from
Now there’s all these horizons and I see the sun
Already so much to praise God for and I've barely begun
I've barely begun
