What is fear?
What tears you into a million pieces
What always hold you tightly down, but will never let you back up
what makes you blind as a night owl
What makes the thunder in your heart pound faster
Why is it chasing you
Even In your dreams, giving you nightmares
Chasing up and down the road
And everywhere you go
What is this unsettling, troublesome anxiety
Fear, is what it is
It is your shadow that follows you,
From sunrise to sunset and from days to nights
Or for the rest of your life
It’ll slowly go away once you’ve get rid it
Not even a minute, until it comes back
Because that is what fear is
It delicately eliminates your confidence,
hypnotizing and paralyzingyou
So that again, is fear
At times, fear won’t go away
But as long as it stays, all it is,
Is the fatal disaster brought upon your cheers
It is the tornado that will rip the roof off your house
The hurricane that will wipe you out
And the prevention of your dream come true
Until you’re through
Fear is the butterfly in your stomach
Fear is that of losing your love
Fear is worse of all
But
Because of fear, that is why we are here.
