Afraid - Nelly Furtado
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
Cuz 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
You're so afraid
of what people might say
But that's okay
cuz 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
cuz 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 got 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 guides 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
You're so afraid
of what people might say
But that's okay
cuz 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
cuz 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 your let me find
what mine is
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

You're so afraid
of what people might say
But that's okay
cuz 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
cuz 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
You're so afraid
of what people might say
You're so afraid
of what people might say
You're so afraid
of what people might say
You're so afraid
of what people might say
But that's okay
cuz 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
cuz you're only human
You're so afraid
of what people might say
You're going to break
So please don't do it
