why would i fear

[Verse 1: Landon Straker]
I got pressure all on my shoulders
Like a rollercoaster, my head
I can't right none of my wrongs
After I heard the things you said
I can't even move how I wanna
Got you all up in my-
It be the same ones that be right beside you
That break you down to a thread
And I held onto a promise
Held on, I regret it
Had no patience since day one
I never learned my lesson
You got demons on you, can't help you
I pray you really get your shit together
I won't see it through, can't happen
Fear no evil, I won't let it

[Chorus: Landon Straker]
When I go
And I'm on my way
And though I'm alone
I won't be afraid
So just say "Don't be afraid", yeah
Don't be afraid, yeah
Don't be afraid, yeah
Don't be afraid (Woo)

[Post-Chorus: Landon Straker & Jay Hollywood]
Yeah (Yeah)
Yeah
Yeah (Yeah)
Don't be afraid, yeah
Don't be afraid, yeah
Don't be afraid, yeah
Don't be afraid, don't be a- (Yo, huh, yo, huh, yo, huh, yo, huh)

[Verse 2: Jay Hollywood]
Why would I fear when I know I'm the man? (Yeah)
I told mommy "Let go of my hand" (Yeah)
I'm big Chelsea Baby, I make it a brand
Tell them niggas we have to expand (Yeah)
I bet on myself 'cause I'm finally grown (Yeah)
Second life, so I'm setting the tone (Yeah)
I'm King Louis, nigga, I need me a throne (Woo)
Crown me as I step out of my home (Woo)
I been stuck in the midst of it all
Am I struggling? (Mmm, nah!)
I been juggling fear for the future and guilt from the past
I still tackle it raw (Raw)
With me everywhere I go
Strong courageous and cutthroat ('Throat)
Keep my enemies, front row (Row)
Yeah, I twirl around Jericho
And I'm leaving my city, but can't take not one of my people with me
I won't drown on my own, R.I.P. to Whitney
Little fish, but don't worry, I'll keep it swimming
You know where to find me, I'm just really distant
Don't know where I'ma land but I'm still flying
I can't lie, I been scared but I'm still fighting
Got a couple of idols to cosign
Marching laps 'round these walls, ain't no stopping
And they get to dropping
And expansion is the only option
Said I peaked? Okay, watch me go top it (Yeah)
Legacy get written I'm locked in
Yeah, my grandmama dying
But I'll blow up fast enough for her to see this success
Heavy pressure on me but I'm keeping it poised
What I'd I look like succumbing to stress? Yes

[Chorus: Landon Straker & Jay Hollywood]
When I go
And I'm on my way
And though I'm alone
I won't be afraid
So just say "Don't be afraid", yeah
Don't be afraid, yeah
Don't be afraid, yeah
Don't be afraid (Yo)

[Verse 3: Jay Hollywood]
Why would I fear when I know I'm the man? (Man)
Finally grown so it's all in my hands
A very slim chance my dreams growing as planned
But anxiety won't dictate who I am
Got every intention of making a grand
Ain't no Diddy, I'm making a band
You know that Holly be high in demand
Busy doing all that they say that I can't
I'm the most fearless one in the room (Room)
I'm above what they always assume ('Sume)
I been using the anger to fuel (Fuel)
And these critics been feeling the fume (Fume)
If you don't got poise, move (Out the way)
Doubting niggas been thinking they smooth
Just got word that they playing with me? (No?)
Insecurity playing with you
How you get into aura for free? (Wow)
You ain't got enough aura for me (Wow)
You ain't got enough trauma to see (Wow)
Yeah, I know that this school isn't cheap (Wow)
Niggas saying "Don't take out a loan" (Facts)
But I need to get out of my home (Facts)
Saying "Holly, you gon' be broke" (Yes)
But at least I'll be broke on my own
I roll all of my life with the dice (Ha)
I won't lose any sleep, out of price (Ha)
I ain't listening to your advice (Nah)
All I know is my God will provide (Yeah)
How longer will I stand in your shade?
I take off all the safety and run in the flames
I kill all of my targets, I know where to aim
I can't carry no fear or no shame, not afraid

[Chorus: Landon Straker & Jay Hollywood]
Don't be afraid, yeah
Don't be afraid, yeah
Don't be afraid, yeah (Yeah)
Don't be afraid, yeah
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Bridge: Jay Hollywood]
When I go
And I'm on my way
And though I'm alone
I won't be afraid
When I go
And I'm on my way
And though I'm alone
I won't be afraid

[Outro: Landon Straker]
(Don't be afraid, yeah)
(Don't be afraid, yeah)
(Don't be afraid, yeah)
(Don't be afraid, yeah)
(Don't be a—)
