Lyrics
I believe so that it's me alone what moves me
And in my wisdom choose to let my elders school me
To gain protection from the demons that consume me
And they often try, that's why the people on the bottom
Are so often high, and we often lie
Tryna fool ourselves, I believe if schools fail
Then we should school ourselves, and if we're broke
Pool our wells, and I believe that we young black males
Need to raise our seeds, I talk about women and weed
I love it but leave, like I believe man is running
For their vanity and greed, and I'm safe in the knowledge
That I'm here by the grace, but smoke an eighth when this
Girl life is testing my faith, but I believe
You got to believe in something
Why not believe in me?
You got to believe in something
Why not believe in me?
I believe that it's the ones you love that kill ya
Like I believe the ones who love you help to build ya
And when you're wounded in the world they try to heal ya
And when you can't explain your pain away they feel ya
So if anybody asks, say I told ya
Strive to never let the ones you love control ya
But know the ones who really love ya help to mould ya
And they hold you down, when you're speeding out of control
They slow you down, and yo, they yet to see the best of P
If you believe apathy's a disease then that's agreed
Yo, man tryna try possess the breed, if he can sell it
Make it harder to breathe, but I believe, yo
In how I think and how I grow, how I feel's how I feel
So I let that show, I'm a man tryna get that dough
But they don't know, when church comes Sunday
I probably won't go, but I believe
You got to believe in something
Why not believe in me?
You got to believe in something
Why not believe in me?
You got to believe in something
Why not believe in me?
Why not believe in me?
I just try and do the right thing, believe me I
Was never scared of the dark and I believe I'll die
