Eminem - Not Afraid

(Hook) 

I'm not afraid to take a stand 

Everybody come take my hand 

We'll walk this road together, through the storm 

Whatever weather, cold or warm 

Just let you know that, you're not alone 

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

(Intro) 

Yeah, It's been a ride... 

I guess I had to go to that place to get to this one 

Now some of you might still be in that place 

If you're trying to get out, just follow me 

I'll get you there 

(Verse 1) 

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

But you won't take this thing out these words before I say 'em 

Cause ain't no way I'm let you stop me from causing aim 

When I say 'em or do something I do it, I don't give a damn 

What you think, I'm doing this for me, so fuck the world 

Feed it beans, it's gassed up, if a thing's stopping me 

I'mma 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 Relapse the last album he's still shittin' and 

Whether he's on salary, paid hourly 

Until he bows out or he shit's 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 

(Hook) 

I'm not afraid to take a stand 

Everybody come take my hand 

We'll walk this road together, through the storm 

Whatever weather, cold or warm 

Just let you know that, you're not alone 

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

(Verse 2) 

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

I shouldn't have to rhyme these words in the rhythm for you to know it's a rap 

You said you was king, you lied through your teeth 

For that fuck your feelings, 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 "ehhhh" 

Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground 

Relax, I ain't going back to that now 

All I'm tryna say is get back, click-clack BLAOW 

Cause I ain't playin' around 

There's a game called circle and I don't know how 

I'm way too up to back down 

But I think I'm still tryna figure this crap out 

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

This fucking black cloud's still follow's me around 

But it's time to exercise these demons 

These motherfuckers are doing jumping jacks now! 

(Hook) 

I'm not afraid to take a stand 

Everybody come take my hand 

We'll walk this road together, through the storm 

Whatever weather, cold or warm 

Just let you know that, you're not alone 

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

(Bridge) 

And I just can't keep living this way 

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

I'm standing up, Imma face my demons 

I'm manning up, Imma hold my ground 

I've had enough, now I'm so fed up 

Time to put my life back together right now 

(Verse 3) 

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 realise what you did, believe me you 

I been through the ringer, but they can do little to the middle finger 

I feel like 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 focus soley on handling my responsibility's as a father 

So I solemnly swear to treat this roof like my daughters and raise it 

You couldn't lift a single shingle lonely 

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

Or the corner pub and lift the whole liquor 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 

(Hook) 

I'm not afraid to take a stand 

Everybody come take my hand 

We'll walk this road together, through the storm 

Whatever weather, cold or warm 

Just let you know that, you're not alone 

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