"Do It Afraid" lyrics
I believe we can trade our lives for a big dream, a small dream, or no dream, why not trade it for a big dream?
If you're gonna do anything, why not do it big, right? Fear's always the loudest when you're tryna do something great
A lotta people would say I didn't start out too good, and maybe you can relate to that
Let me tell you something, it's not about how you start, it's about how you finish, and I know you guys are gonna finish great
(I gotta, gotta believe
I can more then survive
Still one trick up my sleeve
We're gonna make this one shine)
Scared to get on that stage? Do it afraid
Scared to jump off those stairs on your skateboard? Do it afraid
Scared to call and put your resume in? Do it afraid
(We're gonna make this one shot)
Sometimes you gotta walk a different way, don't let the world cookie cut you
You gotta go after your dream
(I, I'm gonna fight the good fight
'Cause I, I know I'll get by
When I battle everyday through the pain like a soldier)
Maybe you don't share those hidden things that are just important to you
I wanna stir up that God-given dream that He's put in your heart
I don't know your story, but there's one thing I do know about your story, about everyone's
It's not done yet 'cause you're still here, you're still writing it
(Hold on when everything is shaking
Stand strong when the ground is falling through)
I had suicidal thoughts, I wanted to give up
This was my dream, this is my life, my identity was wrapped up in this thing
And all of a sudden it was gone
Pain is a good teacher
Have you ever wanted things to be different in your life?
What do you need to let go of?
What friends do you gotta stop hanging out with that are negative, that are haters?
Put yourself in places that are gonna cause you to stretch
If you want something different tomorrow you've gotta plan something new today
A fighter isn't someone who never fails, a fighter is someone who never quits
(You're more to me than you could ever know)
And I know I've got a full room of fighters in here, right?
If you're gonna do anything, why not do it big, right? Fear's always the loudest when you're tryna do something great
A lotta people would say I didn't start out too good, and maybe you can relate to that
Let me tell you something, it's not about how you start, it's about how you finish, and I know you guys are gonna finish great
(I gotta, gotta believe
I can more then survive
Still one trick up my sleeve
We're gonna make this one shine)
Scared to get on that stage? Do it afraid
Scared to jump off those stairs on your skateboard? Do it afraid
Scared to call and put your resume in? Do it afraid
(We're gonna make this one shot)
Sometimes you gotta walk a different way, don't let the world cookie cut you
You gotta go after your dream
(I, I'm gonna fight the good fight
'Cause I, I know I'll get by
When I battle everyday through the pain like a soldier)
Maybe you don't share those hidden things that are just important to you
