Not Afraid

[Verse 1: John Cooper]

Escape from the past that was stolen

And all your toxic fumes inhaled

The scapegoat of angels who've fallen

But my soul is not for sale

[Pre-Chorus: John Cooper & Jen Ledger]

Even though you tore me up

Left me with sores and blood

I was suffering

You could never break my will

It made me stronger still

I was smothering

I can't breathe

[Chorus: John Cooper]

Spent my whole life living underground

Foot on my back tryna keep me down

Come too far to turn back now

I am not afraid

I will keep the faith

Never back down 'til my dying day

Staring death straight in the face

I am not afraid

[Post-Chorus: John Cooper]

My life, my heart, my soul

I'm not afraid

My breath, my blood, my all

I'm not afraid

[Verse 2: John Cooper]

You thought you would always control mе

You clipped my wings, my dreams in two

I guess that you don't еven know me

'Cause I'll never be like you

[Pre-Chorus: John Cooper & Jen Ledger]

And even though the threat is real

My backbone's made of steel

I'm fine, suffering

And when the pressure's in my face

I'll never bow or break

'Cause I'm not afraid

I can't breathe

[Chorus: John Cooper]

Spent my whole life living underground

Foot on my back tryna keep me down

Come too far to turn back now

I am not afraid

I will keep the faith

Never back down 'til my dying day

Staring death straight in the face

I am not afraid

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge: John Cooper & Jen Ledger]

I can't breathe

Suffering

I can't breathe

[Chorus: John Cooper & Jen Ledger]

Spent my whole life living underground (Oh)

Foot on my back tryna keep me down

Come too far to turn back now

I am not afraid

I will keep the faith

Never back down 'til my dying day

Staring death straight in the face

I am not afraid

[Post-Chorus: John Cooper]

My life, my heart, my soul

I'm not afraid

My breath, my blood, my all

I am not afraid

[Outro: John Cooper & Jen Ledger]

I can't breathe

Suffering

I can't breathe
