Music Video
The music video begins with Steve Aoki and Afrojack (van de Wall) brainstorming ideas for a new video. They walk outside and are hit by a meteor falling out of the sky. The video cuts to a time "several centuries later" showing Bonnie McKee as a mad scientist who has preserved Aoki and Afrojack's heads and has found a way to bring them back to life. The video then shows scenes of the heads being prised like gods and "performing" to a large crowd.

Lyrics
I was afraid to be myself. I was afraid that you could tell. I was afraid of what I felt. I was afraid it wasn't real.

But I wanna get up, up, up And I wanna let go, oh, oh 'Cause I'm ready to take control. Take a look at me, Take a look at me, I'm not afraid anymore I'm not afraid anymore I'm not afraid anymore No I'm not afraid anymore

I'm not afraid anymore

Cold in the shadow of my doubt So scared to step out from the crowd But I am a wildfire now Too hot for you put me out

'Cause I'm burning it up, up, up And I'm tearing it down, own, own I've been waiting here long enough Take a look at me Take a look at me I'm not afraid anymore I'm not afraid anymore I'm not afraid anymore No I'm not afraid anymore

No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready) No fear (I'm ready)

No fear and no tears I'm not afraid anymore, anymore No fear and no tears I'm not afraid I'm not afraid anymore

I'm not afraid anymore
