Scared of the Dark
Lil Wayne Lyrics

I'm not scared of the dark
I have no fear of the darkness

I'm not running, running, running
I'm not fleeing or avoiding anything

No, I'm not afraid of the fall
I'm fearless of the consequences

I'm not scared, not at all
I have no fright, whatsoever

Why would a star, a star ever be afraid of the dark?
Isn't it strange that a celestial object would be scared of the absence of light?

I'm not scared
I have no anxiety, nervousness or apprehension

I'm not scared, even from the start
From the beginning until now, I've always been fearless

I'm not scared of the dark
I'm not frightened in environments with low levels of light

Tunechi
Referring to Lil Wayne himself

I ain't never scared and I ain't never horrified
I have never been scared or intimidated

I just look down at my Rolex, it said it's the darkest times
Even though it might be the darkest of times, I'm not terrified

I ain't never terrified, I ain't never petrified
I have never been shook or paralyzed with fear

You know I see dead people, I just tell 'em, "Get a life"
Even when surrounded by death, I remain calm and unafraid

I ain't never scurred, I'm not sure if that's a word, but
I have never been scared, although I'm not sure if 'scurred' is a real word

I mean every word, feelin' like, "Do not disturb," wait
Every word I say is genuine, I feel like I shouldn't be disturbed

Let me testify, I have never testified
I have never given a testimony in court

And I'm married to my pride, I ain't never, never cried
I'm very proud and I have never shed a tear

I got eyes like marbles, if I cry they sparkle
My eyes are so bright that if I shed a tear they would sparkle

You know I can read your mind like I'm the author
I have an ability to know what people are thinking, like the author of their thoughts

There's a line for tomorrow and that line's gettin' shorter
Time is running out, there's less time left for tomorrow

I'm behind the trigger, what if I am the target?
I'm in control of the situation, but what if I become the victim?

Deep sigh, a sayōnara, I ain't afraid to die
Taking a deep breath, saying goodbye, I'm not afraid to die

It's either goodbye or good mornin', and the skies start to fallin'
I'm ready to say goodbye or good morning, and everything is falling apart

And I'ma shine in the darkness
I'll still be successful, even in the worst of times

Okay, put my heart to the side
I'm putting my emotions aside

In my feelings, hoe, let's ride
But I'm still emotional and I want to be with someone to ride with

Big MAC to the side
My gun is ready if needed, but for now, it's put aside

If she call, I'm gon' slide
If she calls me, I'm going to meet up with her

"That my baby," boy, you crazy
She's mine but calling me baby is crazy

She might get a new Mercedes
I might buy her a new car

She say she want me, oowee
She says she wants me badly

Okay, lil' shawty, let's do this, uh-huh
Okay, let's get together, little lady

If only you count the tears I've cried
If only you knew how many times I've cried

A million times, I swear I've died
It feels like I've died many times

I'm trying, but it's still not right
I'm still making an effort, but it's still not working out

The only time I want her is night
I only want her at night when it's dark

Of the dark, mm
I'm not afraid of the darkness, mm

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
