Guts Over Fear Lyrics by Eminem Eminem , Sia
Below, you will find the lyrics for Guts Over Fear by Eminem.
Feels like a close, it's coming to
Am I gonna do?
It's too late to start over
This is the only thing I, thing I know
Verse 1
Sometimes I feel like all I ever do is
Find different ways to word the same, old song
Verse 1
Ever since I came along
From the day the song called ''Hi! My Name Is'' dropped
Verse 1
Started thinking my name was fault
'Cause anytime things went wrong
I was the one who they would blame it on
Verse 1
The media made me the equivalent
Of a modern-day Genghis Khan
Verse 1
Tried to argue it was only entertainment, dog
Gangster? Nah, courageous balls
Had to change my style, they said I'm way too soft
And I sound like AZ and Nas, out came the claws
Verse 1
And the fangs been out since then
But up until the instant that I went against it
It was ingrained in me that I wouldn't amount to a shitstain I thought
No wonder I had to unlearn everything my brain was taught
Do I really belong in this game? I pondered
I just wanna play my part, should I make waves or not?
So back and forth in my brain the tug of war wages on
And I don't wanna seem ungrateful or disrespect the art form
I was raised upon
Verse 1
But sometimes you gotta take a loss
And have people rub it in your face before you get made pissed off
And keep pluggin', it's your only outlet
And your only outfit so you know they're gonna talk about it
Verse 1
Better find a way to counter it quick and make it
Feel like I've already said this a kabillion eighty times
How many times can I say the same thing different ways that rhyme?
What I really wanna say is
If there's anyone else that can relate to my story?
Verse 1
Bet you feel the same way I felt when
Chorus 1
I was afraid to make a single sound
Afraid I would never find a way out, out, out
Afraid I'd never be found
I don't wanna go another round
An angry man's power will shut you up
Trip wires fill this house with tip-toed love
Run out of excuses with everyone
So here I am and I will not run
Guts over fear
Guts over fear
For all the times I let you push me round
And let you keep me down
Guts over fear, guts over fear
Bridge
Feels like a close, it's coming to
Am I gonna do?
It's too late to start over
This is the only thing I, thing I know
Verse 2
I know what it was like, I was there once, single parents
Hate your appearance
Did you struggle to find your place in this world?
And the pain spawns all the anger on
But it wasn't until I put the pain in song learned who to aim it on
That I made a spark, started to spit harder
Verse 2
Learned how to harness it while the reins were off
And there was a lot of bizarre but the crazy part
Was soon as I stopped saying 'I gave a
Haters started to appreciate my art
And it just breaks my heart to look at all the pain I've caused
But what am I gonna do when the rage is gone?
And the lights go out in that trailer park?
And the window that was closin'
And there's nowhere else that I can go with flows
And I'm frozen 'cause there's no more emotion
For me to pull from
Just a bunch of playful songs that I make for fun
So to the break of dawn here I go recyclin' the same, old song
But I'd rather make 'Not Afraid 2'
Than making another *************''We Made You'
And I don't wanna seem indulgent
When I discuss my lows and my highs
My demise and my uprise, pray to God
I just open enough eyes later on
Gave you the supplies and the tools
To hopefully use that'll make ya' strong
And enough to lift yourself up when you feel like I felt
'Cause I can't explain to y'all how dang exhausted my legs felt
Just havin' to balance my dang self
When on eggshells I was made to walk
But thank you, ma, 'cause that gave me the
Strength to cause Shady-mania
So when they empty that stadium
'Least I made it outta that house
And found a place in this world when the day was done
So this is for every kid who all's they ever did
Was dreamt of one day just gettin' accepted
I represent him or her, anyone similar
You are the reason that I made this song
And everything you're scared to say
Don't be afraid to say no more
From this day forward, just let them a-holes talk
Take it with a grain of salt and eat their faces off
The legend of the angry blonde
Lives on through you when I'm gone
And to think I was gone
I was afraid to make a single sound
Afraid I would never find a way out, out, out
Afraid I'd never be found
I don't wanna go another round
An angry man's power will shut you up
Trip wires fill this house with tip-toed love
Run out of excuses for everyone
So here I am and I will not run
Guts over fear
Guts over fear
For all the times I let you push me round
And let you keep me down
Guts over fear, guts over fear
