[Hook: Alicia Renee]
Just believe in me
Just believe in me
Believe what you feel
Not what you see
Believe in your heart
Believe in me
Just believe in me
Just believe
[Verse 1: Tuan X]
Have you ever given your soul to a woman
No, I mean really, given your soul to a woman
Like, f** all of that jealous bullsh** and insecurities
Like checking Facebook messages and texts received
See, one good girl is worth 1000 bad b**hes, yes
But one great woman is worth 1000 good girls
And while I'm out here doin' shows I know you wonderin' if
He's thinkin' bout us with every dollar that he blows, and I do
I know you feenin' to move out your mama's crib and
I'm ready to start life with you, but these dreams man
They got me on the brink of broke every weekend
I know it feels like I'm not trying, but
I promise your dad I'mma marry you
Broom cross it and carry you
Four kids, a dog or two
Girl cat & Cadillac in black
See and even though it's rocking in these seas B
Don't you ever think to leave me

[Verse 2: Tuan X]
This second verse is dedicated to my fam, you see
They seem to can't wrap they hearts 'round my plans, you see
These benefits don't benefit me
This full-time job has given all that it's gon' get me
But they tell me work hard, save up for your 401(k)
I'd rather be young, rich as sh**, countin' 401K (Knod to Big)
Battling age in this battle of life
And if I only die once, I'mma live for tonight
140 hour work weeks, no sleepin' tonight
I got bags in my eyes, I only sleep in the light
Most of my paychecks spent on travel and beats
Promo and no clothes, same outfit for weeks
And now pressurin' about to kick me out on the streets
Cuz I won't pay family rent, though I agreed to pay bills
I'm stressin' and eatin' too much
In the hospital three times in the last four months
I feel my dreams are so close, right there in reach
I'm doin' all these shows tryna spread my preach
And all I ever needed from you was a place to sleep
A place to call home, a place to have peace
I'm lost in my zone, my wants are on hold
My tank is on E, my soul on this beat
I'm runnin' and runnin', and bound to achieve
And you don't have to agree in my path, but just believe…

[Verse 3: Tuan X]
It's really hard in this game for people like me
Who don't pretend we in the 90s, don't do crap music
Maybe Afropunk will one day recognize me
And SXSW won't look over me every year
But I couldn't sit here and wait for them to like me
So I saved up 3 G's and took my a** to London
See, realizing my goals won't chase me, I chased them first
And I do it all for you
Until the day I reunite with this earth and I'm reborn a birch tree
I'll bleed on this mic 'til it blood clot & hearse me
Not many people have this dedication I do
See, it's dedication to you that keeps me on my feet
See I don't want to run these streets again
Want a wife, some kids, a Benz E Cla**
Just wanna live modest, on top as one of the hottest
Hardest working motherf**ers in this game
And in the end I wanna hear you scream.. woo!
