Believer

First things first, I'ma say all the words inside my head

I'm fired up and tired of the way that things have been, oh-ooh

The way that things have been, oh-ooh

Second things second, don't you tell me what you think that I could be

I'm the one at the sail, I'm the master of my sea, oh-ooh

The master of my sea, oh-ooh

I was broken from a young age, taking my sulkin' to the masses

Writing my poems for the few that look at me, took to me, shook at me, feelin' me

But they never did, ever lived, ebbin' and flowin'

It rained down like

(Pain) you made me a-, you made me a believer, believer

(Pain) you break me down, you build me up, believer, believer

Last things last, by the grace of the fire and the flames

You're the face of the future, the blood in my veins, oh-ooh

The blood in my veins, oh-ooh

But they never did, ever lived, ebbin' and flowin'

Inhibited, limited 'til it broke open and rained down

It rained down like

(Pain) you made me a-, you made me a believer, believer

(Pain) you break me down, you build me up, believer, believer

Pain, let the bullets fly, oh, let them rain
