Verse 1Feels like a Fclose, it's coming to
f*** am DmI gonna do?
It's too laAmte to start over.G.
This is the only thing IC, thing I knowVerse IISometimes I Ffeel like all I ever do is
Find different ways to word the same, old song
Dm Ever since I came along
From the day the song called "Hi! My Name Is" dropped
SAmtarted thinking my name was fault
Cause any time things went wrong
GI was the one who they would blame it on
The media made me the equivaFlent of a modern-day Genghis Khan
Tried to argue it was only enterDmtainment, dog
Gangsta? Naw, courageous balls
Had to change my sAmtyle, they said I'm way too soft
And I sound like AZ and Nas, out Gcame the claws
And the fangs been out since then
But up until the instant that I've went against Fit
It was ingrained in me that I wouldn't amount to a s****Dmtain I thought
No wonder I had to unlearn everything my brain was taught
AmDo I really belong in this game? I pondered
I just wanna play my part, should I make Gwaves or not?
So back and forth in my brain, the tug of war wages on
And FI don't wanna seem ungrateful or
disrespect the art-form I was raised upon
DmBut sometimes you gotta take a loss
And have people rub it in your face before you get Ammade pissed off
And keep pluggin', it's your only outlet
And your only Goutfit so you know they gonna talk about it
Better find a way to counter it quick and make it, Fah
Feel like I've already said this a kabillion Dmeighty times
How many times can I say the same thing different ways that rhyme?
Am What I really wanna say is if there's anyone else that can relate to my
sGtory
Bet you feel the same way I felt when I was in the same place you are
When I was Fafraid to…
ChorusI was a...
FAfraid to make a single sound

C, thing I know
Verse III know what it's
Flike, I was there once, single parents
Hate your appearance, did you s
Dmtruggle to find your place in this world?
And the pain spawns all the anger on
AmBut it wasn't until I put the pain in songs learned who to aim it on
That I made a s
Gpark, started to spit hard as s***
Learned how to harness it while the reins were off
F..And there was a lot of bizarre s***, but the crazy part
Was
Dmsoon as I stopped saying "I gave a f***"
Haters started to appreciate my art
Am And it just breaks my heart to look at all the pain I've caused
But what am I gonna
Gdo when the rage is gone?
And the lights go out in that trailer park?
And the window
Fis closing and there's nowhere else that I can go with flows
And I'm frozen cause there's no more emo
Dmtion for me to pull from
Just a bunch of playful songs that I made for fun
Am So to the break of dawn here I go recycling the same, old song
GBut I'd rather make "Not Afraid 2"
than make another ************ "We Made You", uh
FNow I don't wanna seem indulgent when I discuss my lows and my highs
My de
Dmmise and my uprise, pray to God
I just opened enough eyes later on
AmGave you the supplies and the tools to hopefully use it to make you strong
E
Gnough to lift yourself up when you feel like I felt
Cause I can't explain to y'all how
Fdang exhausted my legs felt
Just having to balance my dang self
When on

But thank you, ma, 'cause that gave me the
S

Dmrepresent him or her, anyone similar,
you are the reason that I made this song
Am And everything you're scared to say don't be afraid to say no more
From this
Gday forward, just let them a-holes talk
Take it with a grain of salt
F and eat their f****** faces off
The legend of the
