Beyette - Still Afraid to Ask (feat G Dubbs)

Lyrics:

back when i was young in school they
did not let me ask them questions
i would not be seen as cool
if i followed with all the lessons

(no matter what you say, no matter what you do)

how could things ever set in
if i was taught to not ask questions
days i don't know who i am
because i no longer ask questions

(no matter what you say, oooh ooooh)

(no matter what you say, no matter what you do)

(no matter what you say, oooh ooooh)

and the worst part is, these days:

i know just the things i know
only the things that i say
because i'm still afraid to ask
about the things i do not know

(no matter what you say, no matter what you do)

failing to inquire when you want to know
makes things so hard when it's time to grow
talk is weak without knowledge, and the more you ask
the less hassle you'll have later to keep on track
you will many lose friends when you assume how they feel
rather than asking them for what was actually real

and the heavy burden that's obtained
is that the lack of courage remains

i know just the things i know
only the things that i know
because i'm still afraid to ask
about the things i do not know

how could things ever set in if i didn't ask questions?
these days i don't know who i am because i don't ask questions

i know just the few things that i know
because i'm still afraid to ask
