Fear is Not the Boss of You

Fear is not the boss of you It can’t tell you what to do Stand tall, look it in the eye And tell it “You won’t take me. Not I.”

Fear is only there to warn you of a situation unfair To see that events might go wrong so you can escape it before long

But you don’t need fear’s aide Its part has already been played If it continues to lurk about Expel fear with a great shout

Letting fear run your life will lead to nothing but anguish and strife So tell fear what we know to be true That it will never be the boss of you
