Fear

I will remain myself

Because nothing good can come

Out of somebody else

My fear is my enemy

It is holding me down

I saw it on some man’s face

It was clear it was holding him down

No matter what, it was clear

It was holding us down

This world and its fear

Fear of fear

Fear of loss

Well, nothing good can come

Out of fear
