Afraid

Nelly Furtado

Uh, 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 Well here's looking to yourself and no other We're all searching for that special something And we keep on running We all have the choice to take the lead or follow I want to feel the light shine on me (me) You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, 'cause you're only human You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, you'll soon get strong enough You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, 'cause you're only human You're 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 Don't wanna leave your comforts, wanna find a cure We're 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 we move with a little trust We all have the choice to take the lead or follow I want to feel the light shine on me (me) You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, 'cause you're only human You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, you'll soon get strong enough You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, 'cause you're only human You're so afraid of what people might say You're going to break, so please don't do it A diamond don't define what shine is I don't need a Rolex to know what the time is You got yours let me find what mine in I'm a survivor look how strong my mind is I stand on my own it's all me Regardless of whatever they call me I'm a leader not a follower And I'd rather be paid and popular Ride homie get your dollars up We're in the belly of the beast that already swallowed us It's the end of the world and we know it (Oh, oh, oh) It's the end of the world (Oh, oh, oh) And we know it You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, 'cause you're only human You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, you'll soon get strong enough You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, 'cause you're only human You're so afraid of what people might say You're going to break, so please don't do it You're so afraid of what people might say (that's okay) You're so afraid of what people might say (that's okay) You're so afraid of what people might say (that's okay) You're so afraid of what people might say (that's okay) You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, 'cause you're only human You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, you'll soon get strong enough You're so afraid of what people might say But that's okay, 'cause you're only human You're so afraid of what people might say You're going to break, so please don't do it --- Afraid - Attitude and Nelly Furtado
