Follow-up album 'Into Your Head' introduced a "nu-breed" sound, with the 2002 release having more emphasis on harmonies and a more mellow, adult contemporary like style. Single "Out Of My Heart", also known as "Out Of My Heart (Into Your Head)", hit #22 on the Canadian Singles Chart as well as #20 in the U.S. top 40. Sadly, the group found themselves unfairly saddled with the 'boy band' label, despite their positive critical reviews and songwriting skills, and their success soon faded. The guys broke up in 2003, and they've all gotten involved in making solo material. Still, fans have hoped for years for some kind of reunion. In 2018, those dreams were finally realized, as BBMak reformed and uploaded an acoustic performance of "Back Here" on YouTube. The group followed that up with a reunion tour through the UK and the United States. Their first album in 17 years is set to release during the spring of 2019.
I Still Believe
BBMak Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Or how to hide
I've been watching the world as it passes by
Trying to climb but I just can't find my feet
But I still believe
Doesn't matter what life you lead
Or the love you need
Lost in the world as it passes by
Do you still believe
I still believe
That we can live together in a land of broken dreams
I still believe
We can put us together and pray for all our hopes and dreams
Cause I only wanna let you know how I feel
Watching the love as it passes by
Trying to smile but I just can't hide my tears
But I still believe
Floating on your own star
They always seems to make you hot
I put it back together once again
Once again
Once again
I still believe
That we can live together in a land of broken dreams
I still believe
We can put us together and pray for all our hopes and dreams
I still believe
That we can live together in a land of broken dreams
I still believe
We can put us together and pray for all our hopes and dreams

When the world had nowhere to run
During a time when society had no escape and was stuck
Or how to hide
Unable to evade the current circumstances

Observing the world changing before my eyes
Trying to climb but I just can't find my feet
Struggling to find my footing and make progress
But I still believe
Despite the hardships, I maintain hope
Doesn't matter what life you lead
Regardless of one's lifestyle

Or the love that one requires
Lost in the world as it passes by

They always seems to make you hot
Standing out can seem intimidating or overwhelming
I put it back together once again
Reassembling oneself after feeling broken down
Once again
Again, after previously overcoming hardship
