Joe Budden - Afraid lyrics

[Hook] What am I afraid of? This is supposed to be what dreams are made of But people I don't have the time to hang with Always look at me and say the same sh** They say you promised you would never change [Verse 1] I just feel like you broke a promise to me Only hurt cause I thought you were being honest with me So I'm gon' try and do this honorably Without the sponsoring fee what's most alarming to me This so emotional for you, robust such the calm in me, Easy to put off notes in thugs harmony Speak to his insecurity, acting so irresponsibly And it's further impacted by the fact that you respond to me See some of us know you as Jimmy barely old He had the baby belly fro, n***a was frail up in his clothes Barely got a hold and it's seeming very outta control Wish we could go back and grab the blackberry with the scroll, oh Yeah Aubrey that's the one we trusted Not this new Aubrey with his stomach sculpted I'm disgusted, you're such a f**in' incumbent Can't govern, trust in the public becoming a f**ing puppet It's bigger than rap battles, a word for the digital cash castle Don't let a glitch in the Mac crash you Unrelaxed wearing political straps tackled Now clash paths with dad, the original bad apple I know where you at, sh** I was there too When sh** was happening fast, word, I got scared too Impossible feats, impossible to sleep Making promises impossible to keep like [Hook] What am I afraid of? This is supposed to be what dreams are made of But people I don't have the time to hang with Always look at me and say the same sh** They say you promised you would never change [Verse 2] Listen, alert the n***as that handle you You fill up tour seats but you raw meat to the animals Doggy to cannibal, morning coffee and sandal shoes Can't get this energy off me, it isn't tangible This sh** is greater than me, Pitchfork and Fader agree Complex I'm waiting to see, this between us, A and B You on the cusp Rated G, film I ain't paying to see I'm patiently waiting with please Thought you would take it in, breathe Blatantly seein' his whole channel real A&E Hard to sound empty inside and fill a vacancy Get some advice, come over kick it and vibe I'm here with hotels, strippers, Odell, all that sh** that you like We'll light some candles and some hookah Hookers flickin' the lights We'll play Aaliyah's greatest hits, you'll get all tickled inside My n***a, It's no wonder you're losing all your friends Poster child now for all that you had a wall against And tell your mans I'll be seeing him soon He marched you right into this madness I got reason to a**ume I creep in his room, sweeper consumed Now his region of doom ain't the legion of boom it's just me with a broom Afterward I'm thinking we can resume a lesson in speaking too soon How is it too late if I'm reading ya tomb It's not, boys inordinate, ploys and ornaments Show up at party next door with a noise ordinance So off the hook of me, maybe y'all should be shook of me Should know I'd k** him at even the slightest push of me And when his team press up shirts, I'll help 'em push a tee, Should it read, he pressed bu*tons but wouldn't push a tee Gotta be buggin', maybe he dunno where Pusha be Or when Pusha push the agenda he isn't pushed to see If pushed to the streets, I see wood in your physique Thinking you misunderstood my hood, this isn't Meek n***a This ain't a standard that you couldn't meet Just from your views, you prolly couldn't see That's cool, that kind of success you could never plan for it Heard the question n***a, I'ma help you answer it [Hook] What am I afraid of? This is supposed to be what dreams are made of But people I don't have the time to hang with Always look at me and say the same sh** They say you promised you would never change [Outro] What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? What am I?
