Dont Be Afraid

Story Behind The Song

I was playing in a former communist country. When the big chief applauded, everyone applauded and likewise when he didn't, they didn't either. One guy in a suit at the front was giving me OK signs and facial expressions that said he liked the music but

Lyrics

I saw you making signs with your hands
And I knew that you wanted to say
You liked the things we were saying
But your boss was sitting near you didn?t really know if it would be OK
To like the music we were playing

Freedoms at your hand
Reach out while you can
And don?t be afraid to step outside your circle
Don?t be afraid to step outside your circle

There?s been a revolution and a change
But I can?t tell what it means to you
Your still a victim of tradition
I know you?d like to sing and dance and do the things you only ever dreamed to do
But your afraid for your position

Freedom?s at your hand
Reach out while you can
And don?t be afraid to step outside your circle
Don?t be afraid to step outside your circle.

Your gonna spend your future in the hand of some else
If you don?t take out a stand
And show the world that you?ve got feelings
You can follow from behind just like you always did
Or you can lead the band
And be yourself in all your dealings

Freedoms at your hand
Reach out while can
And don?t be afraid to step outside your circle
Don?t be afraid to step outside the circle
