Album: Never Give Up
Music & Lyrics: Alexis Vear
Secret: Fear was written at the same time as Peace and in the same airport. It is ominous to think as we were waiting for our delayed connection, and I wrote this, that it would be so foretelling of what was about to come. In my own life, I was tired of being afraid. Making every decision on playing it safe. So tired of thinking. just wanted all the fear in my life to go away.

Fear, what a driving word
Fear, it can change the world and history
Fear, it can ruin your life quite certainly
Fear, what an all-encompassing word
Fear it makes you make the wrong choices
Fear it makes you lose your voice
What would life be without fear
I ain’t talking bout temptation my dear
Chorus
Fear why don’t you get out of me
Fear I hate you don’t you see
Fear to be who I need to be
Fear that won’t let me be set free
Fear of what others think of me
Fear of the evil surrounding me
Fear of drowning in a deep blue see
Fear of people depending on me
I aint perfect although I’ve tried my damndest to be
I aint the Dali Lama although sometimes I wish to be.
Fear of you loving me for me
Fear of how to love all of humanity
Fear I’m begging for you to leave
Fear I hate you don’t you see
Fear you got your claws in me
Fear I’ll kill you if you don’t kill me
Chorus
