Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil
For You are with me
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me
[Verse 2]
I honestly grow insecure as I get older
'Cause even when you hot
There comes a day when you get colder
Comes a day when you slower
Time is takin' it's toll
Forty five on the back of the Jersey upon your soul
I'm scared of lettin' go
I don't know what the future holds
[Verse 3]
My nightmares are havin' nightmares
I'm quite scared of what's right and fair
How I fare an eternity
Will I hear well done when He turn to me
Will I hear you care too much 'bout all this stuff that really don't matter
You chased the wind and you won it
Got to the top of a two foot ladder
What's after, I can capture all this mess my heart was after
Will I end up empty handed when I stand before my master
Did I master the mathematics of a passive disaster
Addin' my selfish ambition all the while subtractin' what matters
I don't know
[Verse 4]
Late nights, I can't sleep
Will I fall when I peek?
Through the curtains all I see
Fingers pointed at me
And they watchin'
And they watchin'
And I'm wonderin'
What they thinkin', thinkin' 'bout
At late nights I can't sleep
Countin' cash, countin' sheep
Through the curtains all I see
Fingers pointed right at me
And I'm watchin'
And I'm watchin'
And I'm wonderin'
What they thinkin', thinkin' 'bout it all
[Verse 5]
In high school we tried to act all tough
I remember a couple times I couldn't back that up
Like when I ran from them vatos
Scuffin' up my zapatos
Scared of losin' my hide
I was so embarrassed inside
If I could go back in time
I would stand and say somethin' like
[Verse 6]
I ain't never scared
Never scared, never scared
I'm lyin', I'm scared of these thoughts in my head
I'm scared of possibly pushin' people right over the ledge
When I say I pledge allegiance to the struggle
Then I turn around and buckle
Under stress and under pressure
Bible on my dresser that could teach my pain a lesson
But I'd rather no address it
Address is in depression
I'm scared if I confess it
That you gon' look at me like I'm somethin' less and I'm such a mess
[Verse 7]
Celui qui a peur d'admettre ses craintes
Et c'est lui qui ne pourra pas les surmonter
On trouve la liberté dans la confession
Et la liberté dans la reconnaissance
[Verse 8]
Yeah and it just so happens I'm wrestlin' with my status
I'm tryna see me like He do
Not focusin' on this madness
They count on me, count me out on account of they fear and doubts
Keep account of my wrongs
Tryna keep me inside they house
Some just keep me around
Gotta wonder what's that's about
[Verse 9]
Yeah, they wanna be politically correct I suppose
But I'm comfortable in my skin
While they just pretend in they clothes
I'm scared of fallin' and failin' in front of all my foes
And I feel some friends are unfaithful
So I keep my small circle closed
I don't want no hand outs or favors
No functional saviors
I'ma tell that truth till it kill me
And I'm chillin' with my creator
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus to all of my haters
For the ones that think I forgot Him
And the ones who won't let me say it
I ain't scared no more
[Verse 10]
Late nights, I can't sleep
Will I fall when I peek?
Through the curtains all I see
Fingers pointed at me
And they watchin'
And they watchin'
And I'm wonderin'
What they thinkin', thinkin' 'bout
At late nights I can't sleep
Countin' cash, countin' sheep
Through the curtains all I see
Fingers pointed right at me
And I'm watchin'
And I'm watchin'
And I'm wonderin'
What they thinkin', thinkin' 'bout
[Verse 11]
Everybody always
They gon' have somethin' to say
Whether you like it or not
Everybody always
They gon' have somethin' to say
Baby, don't take it to heart
Somethin' to say
[Verse 12]
恐怖を受け入れることを恐れたのは
(Always, always)
それに打ち勝つことはできないだろう
(Always, always)
全てを受け入れたその先に
(Always, always)
自由は存在し、恐怖は解き放たれる
[Verse 13]
(Always, always) (Don't you worry)
(Always, always) (Don't you let us go to sleep, no, no, no, no)
(Always, always)
(No, no, no, no, no) (Always, always)
(Always, always) (Don't you worry)
