Fear Lyrics

It grips you by the neck, so tight to the point where you are breathless

Stomach hurting, and sick cause it's caused anxiousness

It gives a gut-wrenching feeling when it shows its ugly head

It paralyzes you to the point where you've eventually stop living life altogether

Wondering why you haven't moved ahead

Stopping you on the track and destroying the plans you've prepared

You wanna move but its got you too scared

Every time you make a move, there it is staring you in the face

Whispering, you know you can't escape

You belong in this place

Just the thought of taking steps makes you sick to ya stomach

So now you're running, gunning

And hiding in its uncomfortable comfort

You find a little courage to take some steps

But you never kicked it out ya mind and now it's got you feeling regret

You had your life mapped out, knew what you wanted to do

But you never accomplished anything

Because your life has been consumed by this mindset you decided to accept

It has become your best friend you go to bed, work and school with it

Faith, hope and courage

You can see yourself quickly losing it

100 Percent of ya mind consumed with foolishness

You can see ya Life, talents and ideas being thrown away

And the person in the mirror is the one whose doing it

See, fear is basically a self-inflicted disease

It murders your dreams

Not realizing you've become a puppet controlled by its strings

It controls your every move

You start playing by its rules

Ball is in your court, it's in your hands but you'd rather not shoot

Why won't you shoot?

What are you afraid of?

Don't you know that fear is cast out by His perfect love?

Freedom is a mindset

Think about all the time spent

Being stuck in a box allowing fear to dissect

Your courage, bravery and ambition

You are a child of God, fear is no competition

Tell yourself, I am free, I am brave

The price for my freedom is already paid

Brake them shackles and come up out them chains

No longer be fears slave

Take that step, even if you have to do it afraid

The time is now, it's time to jump

No more procrastinating

Destroy that negative picture you've been painting

Cause it just gives a false view of your life that you've been underestimating

The future is a gift

But this is the present

Stand up and start that process of convalescence

Let me makes this clear

HE didn't give you a spirit of fear

Take that leap of faith

Because the end is closer than it appears
