Fear Ameer Is The Truth

Fear Ameer is truth, cuz when he's got the ball you know there is no way, we'll lose

Yeah when I first saw that Husker Helmet on him,
he's poppin' right out cuz the jersey's too small to fit him
Thought O good lord, this dude is for real,
He's gonna take us back to the Osborne years

Fear Ameer is truth, cuz when he's got the ball you know there is no way, we'll lose
Down the field he will march, runnin left and right, leaving defenses feeling used
On this high-powered smashmouth husker offense, would be a hell of lot better to go undefeated
Fear Ameer is truth, cuz when he's got the ball you know there is no way, we'll lose

I got my Heisman vote, and I'll cast it for you, cast it for you
Bo don't be afraid, Ameer is gonna save you, yes he's gonna save you

He was slippin out the backfield, Tommy's in the gun,
defenders all around him, he still makes ‘em look dumb
Powerin' his way to keep the drive alive, breakin 50 tackles through the touchdown line

Fear Ameer is truth, cuz when he's got the ball you know there is no way, we'll lose
Down the field he will march, runnin left and right, leaving defenses feeling used
On this high-powered smashmouth husker offense, would be a hell of lot better to go undefeated
Fear Ameer is truth, cuz when he's got the ball you know there is no way, we'll lose

I got my Heisman vote, and I'll cast it for you, cast it for you
Bo don't be afraid, Ameer is gonna save you, yes he's gonna save you
