When interviewed by Rolling Stone: “Not… Read More [Intro]

(I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid) Yeah

(To take a stand, to take a stand) It's been a ride

(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 road together, through the storm) Now some of you

(Whatever weather, cold or warm) Might still be in that place

(Just lettin' you know that you're not alone) If you're tryna get out

(Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road) 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 the sting out these words before I say 'em

'Cause ain't no way I'ma let you stop me from causin' mayhem

When I say I'ma do somethin', I do it

I don't give a damn what you think, I'm doin' this for me

So fuck the world, feed it beans, it's gassed up if it thinks it's stoppin' me

I'ma be what I set out to be, without a doubt, undoubtedly

And all those who look down on me, I'm tearin' 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 shittin' 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

[Chorus]

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 lettin' you know that you're not alone

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

[Verse 2]

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

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

You said you was king, you lied through your teeth

For that, fuck your feelings, instead of gettin' crowned, you're gettin' 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 "ehh"

Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground

Relax, I ain't goin' 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 fuckin' black cloud still follows me around

But it's time to exorcise these demons

These motherfuckers are doin' jumpin' jacks now

[Chorus]

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 lettin' you know that you're not alone

Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road (Same road, same road)

[Bridge]

And I just can't keep livin' this way

So startin' today

I'm breakin' out of this cage

I'm standin' up, I'ma face my demons

I'm mannin' 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

[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 realize what you did, believe me, you

I've been through the wringer

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, 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 handlin' 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 raisin' the bar, I'd shoot for the moon

But I'm too busy gazin' at stars, I feel amazin', and

[Chorus]

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 lettin' you know that you're not alone

Holla if you feel like you've been down the same road (Same road, same-)
