Random (Mega Ran) - Believe! lyrics

He paid that cost (that's what I believe in) Up on that cross (That's what I believe in) Forgave my sins (That's what I believe in) And He rose again (That's what I believe in) They pierced his side (That's What I believe In) For you and I (That's what I believe in) Forgave my sins (That's what I believe in) He coming back again (That's what I believe in) By the time I was 8, I had a trial of my faith Already knew what I would do, what kind of job I would take Teased by cla**mates, who told me "God is a fake" But I knew, what was true Despite the whispers and dissin' Cause they were up in service every sunday Just like the regular Christians Relating religion to urban mysticism And superstition And trying to convince me That they controlled the way they're living Like a Philistine Cutting his nose to spite his face Like a guillotine From the land of dealers, fiends k**er teens Michelangelo couldn't paint a realer scene 20 years later and serenity is still a dream But back to the topic, back to the block We ain't have much but learned how to Work with what we got And not long after I came up out the sac Pop dukes pulled a Terry Mac Disappearing Act But, i ain't mad at that, at night I sat In a dark room Begging for God to bring him back But he never did come, by age 21 Wonder what I'd done To make him abandon his son How we get to this, it's kinda ridiculous To keep the lights on, momma work triple shifts Then she wonder why we not close I see the babysitter more than I see my folks Is this the American Dream? Then send me to Mexico Can we go? no? Schedule's not flexible Everyday my momma got up to leave I cried, but she told me you gotta believe So I (BELIEVE) It'll get better (BELIEVE) We get through it (BELIEVE) God's real busy (BELIEVE) But He gone get to it (BELIEVE) First you pray for it (BELIEVE) Then you wait for it (BELIEVE) Gotta have faith for it (That's what I believe in) He paid that cost (that's what I believe in) Up on that cross (That's what I believe in) Forgave my sins (That's what I believe in) And He rose again (That's what I believe in) They pierced his side (That's What I believe In) For you and I (That's what I believe in) Forgave my sins (That's what I believe in) He coming back again (That's what I believe in) I still remember the last conversation we had You were going OT down to Pop-Pop's pad In SC Just a routine trip, you'd be back in a flash While me and Jon Bap chillin Listening to raps You ain't give me no crap, just asked did I wanna go I was busy writing so respectfully I said no Yo Who wouldve known that this would be your fate That an a**a**in would've been lying in wait Next morning Vince told me that you were shot I was beyond shocked Thought that my heart had just stopped Everyday i pray for the chance to do it over A chance to roll with you and face it like a soldier God told me to stay, and I begrudgingly listened Could've been dead instead Or dead in addition... I'm living proof that the Son (Sun) can't chill Still here like an unpaid bill And that's real I (BELIEVE) That everything occurs for a reason (BELIEVE) Suffering only last for one season (BELIEVE) Stop pleadin' (BELIEVE) And start heeding (BELIEVE) And keep reading That's what I believe in... That's what I believe in... That's what I believe in... That's what I believe in... (adlibs until end)
