Because it’s you
Because it’s true
Because you’re far too good to lose
Because you’re here
Because it’s clear
Because your love’s been drowning the fear
I will not be afraid
I will not run away
I will not leave too soon,
and then wish I’d stayed
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid.
Because I’ve lost
Because it cost
Because my heart’s been double crossed
Because I thirst
to quench the hurt
Because not trying is always worse
I will not be afraid
I will not run away
I’ll work the double shifts
‘till the piper’s paid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
For so long I chose to be
A prisoner of fear
I prolonged the slavery
For too many years (too many years)
For too many years
I will not be afraid
I will not run away
I’ll let those memories of failure fade
The hand that I’ve been delt
I’m gonna’ play
I’ll keep the things I’ve learned
and I will not trade
I will not be afraid
I will not run away
I’ll grow a little stronger every day
I’ll face the music proudly
that I have made
And if you knew me then
You’ll know I’ve changed today
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
