Guts Over Fear

Guts Over Fear: Chords

             SOLb
Feels like a close, it's coming to
        MIbm
Fuck am I gonna do?
         SIbm              LAb/DO
It's too late to start over
                        REb
This is the only thing I, thing I know

            SOLb
Sometimes I feel like all I ever do is

Find different ways to word the same, old song
MIbm7
 Ever since I came along
         MIbm6+
From the day the song called 

"Hi! My Name Is" dropped
SIbm
 Started thinking my name was fault

'Cause anytime things went wrong
LAb/DO
I was the one who they would blame it on
          REb
The media made me the, uh, 
      SOLb      
equivalent of a modern-day Genghis Khan
                                MIbm
Tried to argue it was only entertainment, dawg

Gangster? Nah, courageous balls
                 SIbm
Had to change my style
                            
They said I'm way too soft
                                 LAb/DO
And I sound like AZ and Nas, out came the claws
                       
And the fangs been out since then
                                         SOLb
But up until the instant that I've went against it
        
It was ingrained in me that I wouldn't amount 
         MIbm7
to a shitstain I thought
                     MIbm6+
No wonder I had to unlearn 

everything my brain was taught
SIbm
Do I really belong in this game? I pondered
   
I just wanna play my part, 
              LAb/DO
should I make waves or not?
                        REb
So back and forth in my brain 

the tug of war wages on
    SOLb
And I don't wanna seem ungrateful

Or disrespect the artform I was raised upon
MIbm
 But sometimes you gotta take a loss

And have people rub it in your face 
               SIbm
before you get made pissed off

And keep pluggin', it's your only outlet
              LAb/DO
And your only outfit so you know 
                 REb
they gonna talk about it

Better find a way to counter 
             SOLb
it quick and make it, ah

Feel like I've already said 
                 MIbm7
this a kabillion eighty times
                     MIbm6+
How many times can I say the same 

thing different ways that rhyme?
SIbm
 What I really wanna say is
                                             LAb/DO
If there's anyone else that can relate to my story

Bet you feel the same way I felt

When I was in the same place you are, 

when I was afraid to...

       SOLb
I was a...
                         LAb
Afraid to make a single sound
                                           SIbm
Afraid I would never find a way out, out, out
                  
Afraid I'd never be found
REb                          FAm SOLb
 I didn't wanna go another round
                                   LAb
An angry man's power will shut you up
                                        SIbm
Trip wires fill this house with tip-toe love
                              REb
Run out of excuses with every word
                    
So here I am and I will not run...

MIbm SOLb LAb  SIbm  MIbm
 Guts   over fear
               MIbm
The time is near
  SOLb LAb  SIbm
Guts over fear
           MIbm
I shed a tear
            SOLb                LAb
For all the times I let you push me 'round
  SIbm  
I let you keep me down
         MIbm    SOLb
Now I got, guts over fear
 LAb         SIbm
Guts over fear

             SOLb          FA
Feels like a close, it's coming to
        MIbm
Fuck am I gonna do?
         SIbm
It's too late to start over
DOm                      REb
 This is the only thing I, thing I know

                   SOLb
I know what it was like I was there once

Single parents, hate your appearance
        MIbm
Did you struggle to find your place in this world?

And the pain spawns all the anger on
SIbm
But it wasn't until I put the pain in songs

Learned who to aim it on
              LAb/DO
That I made a spark, started to spit hard as shit
        REb
Learned how to harness it while the reins were off
SOLb
  And there was a lot of bizarre shit, 

but the crazy part
    MIbm
Was soon as I stopped saying, I gave a fuck

Haters started to appreciate my art
SIbm
 And it just breaks my heart 

to look at all the pain I've caused
                    LAb/DO     
But what am I gonna do when the rage is gone?
                  REb
And the lights go out in that trailer park?
           SOLb
And the window is closing and there's nowhere else 

that I can go with flows
                                       MIbm
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
SIbm
 So, to the break of dawn here 

I go recycling the same, old song
LAb/DO              
But I'd rather make "Not Afraid 2"
           REb
Than make another motherfuckin' "We Made You", uh
SOLb
Now, I don't wanna seem indulgent

When I discuss my lows and my highs
     MIbm
My demise and my uprise, pray to God

I just open enough eyes later on
    SIbm
And gave you the supplies and the tools

To hopefully use that'll make you strong
 LAb/DO
Enough to lift yourself up 
                   REb
when you feel like I felt

'Cause I can't explain to y'all 
         SOLb
how dang exhausted my legs felt

Just havin' to balance my dang self
        MIbm
When on eggshells, I was made to walk

But thank you, ma, 'cause that gave me the
SIbm
Strength to cause Shady-mania, 

so when they empty that stadium
         LAb/DO
At least I made it out of that house
                    REb
And a found a place in this world 

when the day was done
   SOLb
So this is for every kid who all's they ever did

Was dreamt of one day just getting accepted
    MIbm
I represent him or her, anyone similar

You are the reason that I made this song
SIbm
 And everything you're scared to say 

don't be afraid to say no more
          LAb/DO                             REb
From this day forward, just let them a-holes talk
                            SOLb
Take it with a grain of salt 

and eat their fucking faces off
                  MIbm
The legend of the angry blonde 
                              LAb
lives on through you when I'm gone

And to think I was a

       SOLb
I was a...
                         LAb
Afraid to make a single sound
                                           SIbm
Afraid I would never find a way out, out, out
                  
Afraid I'd never be found
REb                          FAm SOLb
 I didn't wanna go another round
                                   LAb
An angry man's power will shut you up
                                        SIbm
