Songtext zu 'Afraid To Say (feat. Lauren Walters)' von Justin Bieber

I'm afraid to say the wrong thing
Criticized from every angle
And I'm afraid to lay it on the line
And selfishly I wanna hold back

Do we got the room to make mistakes?
Are we judged for everything we say?
I wanna grow but I'm afraid
And will it always be the same?
Does what I gotta say even matter?
Is life about climbing up the ladder?
And can we even see lives that are shattered?
'Cause I'm really tryna silence the chatter
What have we done with society?
When everybody's getting canceled
And can't there be room for maturity?
'Cause writing 'em off is not the answer

Do we got the room to make mistakes? (Do we?)
Are we judged for everything we say? (Are we?)
I wanna grow but I'm afraid
And will it always be the same?
Does what I gotta say even matter?
Is life about climbing up the ladder?
And can we even see lives that are shattered?
'Cause I'm really tryna silence the chatter
What have we done with society?
When everybody's getting canceled
And can't there be room for maturity?
'Cause writing 'em off is not the answer

We can't write people off
God never writes us off
Even in our darkest days, even when we least deserve it
Even when we're doing that stupid thing we wish we weren't doing
God never writes us off, ever
He's with us in our pain, he's with us in our struggle
He's with us in our bad decisions
He's with us all the time, he never writes us off

You formed the whole of me
Inward and out
I am awesomely and wonderfully created
Your creations are spectacular
You skillfully designed me
You saw the essence of me, before I was formed
Before I existed, all of my days were written in Your book
Psalms 139:13-16
