Xavier Omar - Afraid Lyrics






Losing love, unrequited
Was it truly love? undecided
Hard times, I'm broken
Past lies, they leave you open
I try, I'm hopeless
At night, no way of coping
With this shredded heart
Can I get reparations for the pain?
Baby I'm afraid
Really I'm afraid

Of giving you what they all messed up
My stress up
Took them pictures and I dressed up
Looking blessed up
You need something and I got you
I spot you
Til I see your love is not true
It's not true
And I'm scared of what that feels like
Looking stupid out in real life
Baby I'm afraid
Really I'm afraid

Of loving you
(I'm so afraid to love you)
With all my heart, my time
(I'm so afraid of hurting again)
Baby I'm afraid
(I'm so afraid to love you)
Really I'm afraid
(I'm so afraid of hurting again)

God has not given us the spirit of fear
But the spirit of love looking like it's not here
I don't doubt your heart, I just know things change
It just leads to pain, I still bleed the same

I still say I'm fine, but I leave my brain
Don't wanna think no more, I can't defeat my shame
Don't wanna play no more, I can't defeat this game
But that phone still rings, can't delete your name

'Cause you give to me
Everything I pray for, every single day for
Listen to me, honestly
You don't have to wait for me to feel I'm safe or
That I'm ready this time
I want no one else, not "too" focused on myself
It's just baby I'm afraid
Really I'm afraid

Of loving you
(I'm so afraid to love you)
With all my heart, my time
(I'm so afraid of hurting again)
Baby I'm afraid
(I'm so afraid to love you)
Really I'm afraid
(I'm so afraid of hurting again)

  5. L.... F....

    How do you love somebody who is afraid? Stand your ground, pause communication and leave the door open for when they're ready to love OR keep chasing them/reminding them it's okay and you're here for them?

  6. J.... M....

    Binge watching Step Up Highwater led me here

  7. G.... W....

    Heard this song in a Lyft and had to ask the driver who made this song! 🤣

  18. 9.... ....

    I just fractured and/or broke part of my hand from letting out frustration related to a woman I love very much, but for some reason can't get along with for more than a short period of time. I'm not dealing with the exact lyrics of the song, but listening to this on repeat is helping me release a lot of the other emotions that are still bottled up.

    If anyone has any other recommendations for songs/artists like this that may help, please drop them below.

    Thank you. ❤️

  47. A.... J....

    This song will always be underrated. This is a song that shows a man being vonerable. One of the only songs with this much substance on the topic. It's unfortunate that most men won't receive this song. But I'm not one of them. This song resonates with me.

  48. b.... s....

  49. D.... T....

    LYRICS

    [Verse 1]

    Losing love, unrequited
    Was it truly love? undecided
    Hard times, I'm broken
    Past lies, they leave you open
    I try, I'm hopeless
    At night, no way of coping
    With this shredded heart
    Can I get reparations for the pain?
    Baby I'm afraid
    Really I'm afraid

    Of giving you what they all messed up
    My stress up
    Took them pictures and I dressed up
    Looking blessed up
    You need something and I got you
    I spot you
    Til i see your love is not true
    It's not true
    And I'm scared of what that feels like
    Looking stupid out in real life
    Baby I'm Afraid
    Really I'm Afraid


    [Chorus]
    Of loving you
    (I'm so afraid to love you)
    With all my heart, my time
    (I'm so afraid of hurting again)
    Baby I'm afraid
    (I'm so afraid to love you)
    Really I'm afraid
    (I'm so afraid of hurting again)


    [Verse 2]

    God has not given us the spirit of fear
    But the spirit of love looking like it's not here
    I don't doubt your heart, I just know things change
    It just leads to pain, I still bleed the same

    I still say I'm fine, but I leave my brain
    Dont' wanna think no more, I can't defeat my shame
    Don't wanna play no more, I can't defeat this game
    But that phone still rings, can't delete your name

    'cuz you give to me
    Everything I pray for, every single day for
    Listen to me, honestly
    You don't have to wait for me to feel I'm safe or
    That I'm ready this time
    I want no one else, not "too" focused on myself
    It's just baby I'm afraid
    Really I'm afraid

    [Chorus]
    Of loving you
    (I'm so afraid to love you)
    With all my heart, my time
    (I'm so afraid of hurting again)
    Baby I'm afraid
    (I'm so afraid to love you)
    Really I'm afraid
    (I'm so afraid of hurting again)
