You might not know, and you might not see,
The treasure that you carry in your soul.
You can scarcely even imagine what you have it in you to be:
Someone strong and beautiful, someone powerful and whole!
Don’t be afraid to be who you are;
Don’t be afraid to shine that light burning bright within you.
Don’t hesitate to choose a path of light,
Or to take up your sword and stand up for the right:
Don’t be afraid – Don’t ever be afraid.
It’s time to find your voice – to make a clear and steady choice –
Not just go along to where others are calling you.
It’s time to listen to your heart and mind – Time at last for you to find
The guiding reason for your being, and what you were sent here to do!
Don’t be afraid to be who you are;
Don’t be afraid to shine that light burning bright within you.
Don’t hesitate to choose a path of light,
Or to take up your sword and stand up for the right:
Don’t be afraid – Don’t ever be afraid.
You don’t even know how very strong you are!
You don’t know the worth of what you hold inside.
Gifts that you can freely shower on the world,
As you learn to speak your truth – As you learn at last to fly!
Don’t be afraid to be who you are;
Don’t be afraid to shine that light burning bright within you.
Don’t hesitate to choose a path of light,
Or to take up your sword and stand up for the right:
Don’t be afraid, (even in the darkest night)
Don’t be afraid, (though you may tire in the fight)
Don’t be afraid, (keep your dreams within your sight)
Don’t ever be afraid – (don’t be afraid.)
