Nelly Furtado feat. Attitude Lyrics
"Afraid"

[Nelly:]
What to say, what to say, what to say
What to say, what to say, what to 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
And who's looking for yourself and no other
We're all searching for that special something
And we keep on runnin'

We all have the choice to take the lead or follow
I want to feel the light shine on me

[chorus:]
So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz you're only human
So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz this song is strong enough
So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz you're only human
So afraid of what people might say
You're gonna (goin to) break so please dont do it

You wanna spread your wings but you're not sure
Dont wanna leave your comfort jus wanna find a cure
We afraid of who we see in the mirror
We wanna let go 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 finds us
If it moved with a little trust

We all have the choice to take the lead or follow
I want to feel the light shine on me

[chorus:]
So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz you're only human
So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz this song is strong enough
So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz you're only human
So afraid of what people might say
You're gonna (goin to) break so please dont do it

[Attitude:]
And now I know to define what shine is
I don't need a Rolex to what the time is
You got yours lemme find what mines is
I'm a survivor
Look how strong my mind is
I stand on my own
It's all me
Regardless
So wherever they call me
I'm a leader not a follower
And I'd rather be paid and popular
Grind homie, get your dollars on
We in the belly of the beast
That already swallowed us

[Nelly:]
It's the end of the world and we know it
It's the end of the world
And we know it

[chorus:]
So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz you're only human
So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz this song is strong enough
So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz you're only human
So afraid of what people might say
You're gonna (goin to) break so please dont do it

So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz you're only human
So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz this song is strong enough
So afraid of what people might say
But thats all ok cuz you're only human
So afraid of what people might say
You're gonna break so please dont do it

[Nelly:]
They're laughing so I guess I'll listen
