Текст песни Nelly Furtado - Afraid

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 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 guides us 
If we move with a little trust

A diamond don't define what shine is
I don't need a rolex to know what the time is 
You got yours let me find what mine in 
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
