I'm not afraid
Written by:Marshall Mathers/Luis Resto/Matthew Samuels/J. Evans/Matthew Burnett
(Yeah)
I'm not afraid
To take a stand
(It's been a ride)
to take a stand
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)
(Might still be in that place)
Whatever weather cold or warm
(If you're trying to get out)
Just letting you know that you're not alone
(Just follow me I'll get you there)
Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road
You can try 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 d*mn what you think
I'm doing this for me so fu*k 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 undoubtably
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 down to that last album
He's still ****ting whether he's on salary paid hourly
Until he bows out or he ****s his bowels out of him
Whichever comes first for better or worse
He's married to the game like a fu*k-you for Christmas
His gift is a curse forget the earth he's got
The urge to pull his d**k from the dirt and fu*k 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 road together through the storm
Whatever weather cold or warm
Just letting you know that you're not alone
Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road
Okay quit playing with the scissors and **** and cut the crap
I shouldn't have to rhyme these words in a rhythm for you to know it's a rap
You said you was the king you lied through your teeth
For that fu*k 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 CD was
Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground
Relax I ain't goin' back to that now
All I'm trying to say is get back click clack pow
Cause I ain't playing around it's the game called circling
I don't know how I'm way too up 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 fu*king black cloud still follows me around
But it's time to exercise these demons these motherfu*kers 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 road together through the storm
Whatever weather cold or warm
Just letting 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
Trying 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 I wanna promise to focus only
On handling my responsibilities as a father
So I solemnly swear to always treat this roof like my daughters
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 club and lift the whole liquour counter up
Cause I'm raising the bar I shoot for the moon
But I'm too busy gazing at stars I feel amazing
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 letting you know that you're not alone
Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road
