Sometimes I stare at the stars And curse the universe for making me feel so small Cause by default, we don't matter at all But I'm learning how To make my time in this world count I'm leaving my fear of the dark far behind, out of mind to be with you I'm cutting ties with all my fear and doubt Carry me with all your favorite sounds Because the fire I harbor inside Could light the way to a better life Set me free I've got a message to carry out and I'm not afraid No I'm not afraid Can't rest my back against the wall It gets harder still And blaming fate won't help at all Don't wait around For your blessings to seek you out I know the rain's coming down But I swear it won't hurt you I'm cutting ties with all my fear and doubt Carry me with all your favorite sounds Because the fire I harbor inside Could light the way to a better life Set me free I've got a message to carry out and I'm not afraid No I'm not afraid
