Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah yeah

[Verse 2]

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

[Verse 3]

West Philadelphia born and raised, on the playground is, nah **** all that

Came in the game on my neon fresh, won the first rap Grammy so I guess I'm blessed

Come off tours, walk on sets, everybody following the trends I set

60 million sold, doing it different, and my IG poppin' from doing it different

Bad vibrations, I stay distant, RatPack MSFTS doing it different

Fortnite doing the Carlton dance, come on, it's just different man

[Verse 4]

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

[Verse 5]

Used to be that motherfucker in the background, yeah, but now I'm in the forefront

'Cause I keep it more blunt, God damn

Pump up the jam, pump up the volume

I'm not Rakim, but I'm doper than

Pump up, pump up the jam, pump up the volume

I'm not Rakim, but I'm doper than Valium

Back in high-school I was not the man, now wherever I go they know who I am

From Maryland to Beijing I'm raging, paging the doctor on call, the illest of them all

[Verse 6]

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

[Verse 7]

This is for the people going hard in the gym

This is for the people going hard on the dance floor

Pump up the heart rate and dance more

Pump up the, pump up the motherfuckin' jam

Rhymin' like Dr. Seus, bitch I'm Sam I Am

I don't give a damn about lyrics, you should feel the spirit when you hear it

No fuckboys, a legend can't get near it

Sucka em-, sucka emcees they, sucka emcees, they fear it

[Verse 8]

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all

Don't be afraid to be different, don't be afraid to be different y'all
