Fearless
SonReal Lyrics

Stuck to mine so you know I'm never gun shy
I stick to my purpose and never shy away from it.

Since I had a backpack full of thumb drives
I've been working hard and accumulating knowledge and skills.

Shits ironic how I rarely saw the sunshine
It's ironic that I worked so hard that I rarely had time for leisure and fun.

That's all I know
This is all I've experienced in life so far.

At my dads sleeping on a broken mattress
I've had humble beginnings and had to sleep on a broken mattress at my dad's place.

He said if you really want it gotta practice
My dad told me that if I really want to succeed, I need to work hard and practice.

Cigarettes in the tray full of ashes
I grew up in a household where smoking was common.

That's all I know, know
This is my reality and all I've known so far.

Everybody got some problems
Everyone has their own share of problems in life.

Ain't nobody ever wanna solve though
People often ignore or avoid solving their own problems.

Lately I been really trying to talk more
I've been trying to open up and talk about my own issues more.

Been haven little trouble with God though
I've been having some struggles with my faith in God.

Life come at ya with a rip tide
Life can be challenging and unpredictable, like a rip tide in the ocean.

Hard to be human on the inside
It's difficult to deal with internal struggles and emotions as a human being.

Hard to admit I admit I
It's hard to admit when I'm struggling or need help.

Told you I'm okay but
Even if I say I'm okay, I might not be doing well internally.

I don't want to wait no more
I don't want to wait any longer to overcome my problems.

Leave that for my past
I want to leave my past struggles behind me.

I don't feel no pain no more
I don't feel the pain of my past struggles anymore.

Hard times never last
Difficult times eventually end and things get better.

I don't feel the same no more
I've changed and grown stronger through my past struggles.

So you don't need to ask
I don't need to explain or justify why I'm different than before.

Why I don't sing the same old songs
I don't dwell on my past struggles and instead focus on moving forward.

We gon' take it higher (ooh, yeah)
We're going to keep pushing ourselves to succeed and achieve more.

We gon' let this fire burn (ooh, yeah)
We're going to keep our passion and drive alive and let it keep burning.

One thing I admire (ooh, yeah)
One thing I respect and admire in others is their fearlessness in the face of pain and struggle.

Is someone who's fearless when it hurts (yeah yeah)
I admire people who face their struggles bravely and don't let pain hold them back.

Poppin' pills when the camera down who knew (yeah)
People often hide their struggles and turn to medication to cope when no one is paying attention.

Got control but sometimes he go voodoo (word)
I try to stay in control of my life, but sometimes my struggles can overwhelm me.

'Cause this life'll drive a sane man coo-coo
Life can be so overwhelming that even a sane person can feel crazy.

But don't let go
But no matter how challenging life is, I won't give up or let go of my dreams.

Everybody need escape from the wild things
Everyone needs a way to escape from their own struggles and challenges in life.

Who this whole damn world feel like an island
Sometimes it can feel like the world is against you and you're all alone.

Now you gone you inspired how I'm rhyming
The struggles I've faced and overcome have inspired my music and art.

God rest his soul, soul
Rest in peace to anyone who has passed away, specifically those who have inspired and impacted me.

We ain't never ask 'til they gone though
We often don't appreciate someone or something until it's gone.

Lately I been stuck at the bottom
Recently, I've been struggling and feeling low.

Feelin' like reaching for the bottle
I've been tempted to turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms like drinking.
