Nobody listened, so she screamed out loud
She broke the dishes when he tried to put his hand on her
She took the car keys, went to the police
Now he’s sitting in a jail for life
‘Cause somebody listened, somebody listened
Fortune favors the bold
The one who’s not looking for gold
Been afraid of the night
Never runs from a fight
Takes the longest road
Music favors the heart
Lonely notes in the dark
Only knows how to play
All the sadness away
Makes a flame from a spark
Fortune favors the bold
Fortune favors the bold
Nobody listened, it was always quiet
Took pills from the cabinet, staying up all night
But he had one friend always checking in
And he probably saved his life
‘Cause he paid attention
He paid attention
Fortune favors the bold
The one who’s not looking for gold
Been afraid of the night
Never runs from a fight
Takes the longest road
Music favors the heart
Lonely notes in the dark
Only knows how to play
All the sadness away
Makes a flame from a spark
Yeah, okay, his windowpane seen way too many rainy days
In a broken home like outcasts and that
Miss Jackson video [?]
Water is falling from the ceiling, somebody call someone to fix it
Spilling blood in the water, yeah, intentions are cryptic
And the [?] is fundamental
[?] that fades away and when it’s gone we’re left with spirit
Makes me wonder what it really costs to pay attention
Look, the pendulum swinging back and forth like Badminton
And snipping away at that venomous snake head, we call that the industry
I been praying, smoking, tryna guard my energy
Remaining hopeful, I’m just tryna maintain innocence
Maintain sanity while I’m sitting [?] lineage
And they can tell the greatest story that was ever told
‘Bout how the fortune favors the bold, yeah
Fortune favors the bold
The one who’s not looking for gold
Been afraid of the night
Never runs from a fight
Takes the longest road
Music favors the heart
Lonely notes in the dark
Only knows how to play
All the sadness away
Makes a flame from a spark
Fortune favors the bold
Fortune favors the bold
