Eminem - Not Afraid

4214

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

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 mayhem

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 the last

Relapse album he's still shit 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 universe

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

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!

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

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

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 think I got a tear in my eye

I feel like the king of My world

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 always

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

Put a ???

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

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
