Fearless

Lin-Manuel Miranda

We begin fearless
We crawl
We walk
We run
Until we fall

Begin again
Begin again

We climb until the world puts up a wall (puts up a wall)

We learn to flinch
We don't remember when

We feel the pinch of "don't do that again"
Endless lists of "don't do that again"
Don't do that again

They put us in boxes
Affix us with the label on the side
They win again
They win again

We dim the lights
We shut the door and hide

But as we grow and make this place our own
I let you in and i am less alone
I am less alone
I am less alone
I am less alone
You remind me of something I've always known

(walls come down)
When i see you i am fearless

(walls come down)
When i'm around you i am fearless

(walls come down)
When i am near you i am fearless

(walls come down)
Now gather round if you can hear this

(walls come down)
Hand in hand we can be fearless

(walls come down)
We take a stand and we are fearless

(walls come down)
When i'm in doubt you make me fearless

(walls come down)
Begin again
Begin again

My mother wrote letters to soldiers overseas
She was doing her part
She was seventeen

My father responded
He was stationed overseas
And he won her heart
Slowly
Sight unseen

He writes "you wait for me
And i'll survive this war"
A year goes by
And there's a soldier at the door

Her parents rage
They didn't know
She had to choose to stay or go

(walls come down)
And I am here cause they were fearless

(walls come down)
They stood their ground and they were fearless

(walls come down)
They blazed a trail by being fearless

(walls come down)
Begin again
Begin again

(walls come down)
And when we find each other fearless

(walls come down)
We're right behind each other fearless

(walls come down)
The walls are gone when we are fearless

(walls come down)
Begin again
Begin again

We can be fearless
We can try to change the world
And when we fall

Begin again
Check in again

I know that you can I can do it all

(begin again)
(begin again)
And when the fear is the only thing that's real

(begin again)
(begin again)
I let you in and I begin to feel
Fearless
