“Not Afraid” Lyrics - Eminem

Lyrics

“Not Afraid”


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

Holler if you feel like you’ve been down the same road (same road)


(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)


You can try and 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 damn what you think,

I’m doing this for me, so fuck 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 undoubtedly

And all those who look down on me I’m tearing down your balcony

No ifs, 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 shitting, whether he’s on salary paid hourly

Until he bows out or he shits 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


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

Holler if you feel like you’ve been down the same road (same road)


Okay quit playing 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 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 “Relapse” CD was ehhh

Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground

Relax, I ain’t going back to that now

All I’m trying to say is get back, click-clack, blow

Cause I ain’t playing around

It’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 trying to figure this crap out

Thought I had it mapped out but I guess I didn’t, this fucking black cloud

Still follows me around but it’s time to exorcise these demons

These motherfuckers 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

Holler if you feel like you’ve been down the same road (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

Time to put my life back together right now! (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, ’cause believe me you

I been through the ringer, but they could do 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 lingers

No more drama from now on, I promise

To focus solely 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 pub, and lift the whole liquor counter up

Cause I’m raising the bar

I’d shoot for the moon but I’m too busy gazing at stars

I feel amazing and I’m…


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

Holler if you feel like you’ve been down the same road (same road)
