I Believe Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One night I was walking down the street Megargee
I saw some funky brothers that I thought would harm me
There was 3 of em all as tall as Kobe
So I crossed the street from Megargee to Oakley
Now I bet from that story you thought that they was black
With all the racism in the world, Hey, I get that
But you can’t judge a man just based on his sight
Cause those three tall goons, man they were white
Why can’t we look past the color of the skin?
Just cause they black doesn’t mean they wanna beat you in
And now we voted in Donald Trump
Very racist man this country need a speed bump
This is comin from a young white male on the streets
Watching the office Dwight Schrute bears and beets
Now I know nobody really listens to me but for this small moment I’ll just believe
[Hook 1]
Now I believe in making money quarters and dimes
But I know money is hard to get sometimes
And I believe in having friends and being kind
But I know for friends kind needs to be intertwined
Now I believe in being real and not being fake
But I know this world is full of snakes
And I believe in getting what you deserve
But I know this is a really messed up world
[Verse 2]
How you boutta tell me that I can’t even rap
Imma clap back, split ya back on a rack, and you’ll watch your world unwrap
Look back
Age 12 you was living like a chacham
Tryna store all the knowledge for the world to come
Skip forward boo hoo age 22
You were living based on what was best for you
Acting like a Nehene straight trippin
Then it hit you that you need to start flippin
Move towards a couple more years you were like forty-five
You were living like you was barely even alive
Thinkin “I need to work as much as I can before I die”

Man you know I try
To live life
How are you not scared to pass?
Go under the grass
Lying dead in a coffin fully made of glass
[Hook 2]
Now I believe in being good and giving respect
But I know you can’t expect the best
And I believe in being happy with what you got
But I know that isn’t always a thought
And I believe everybody needs a change
But I know everybody gonna act the same
And I believe in praying to the lord up above
But I know all we really need is love
