He began playing the piano at the age of 2 and by middle school mastered the flute. After high school, Kelly attended the prestigious Berklee College of Music, and after graduation in 2002 returned to Manhattan. Through networking and word of mouth, Kelly met as many producers as he could, and by 2002 had written a song that ended up a compilation by the Japanese clothing line A Bathing Ape. "It was a lucky break," he said. "It boosted my confidence." Kelly got his big break when he wrote the song, "Daddy's Little Girl" for Frankie J's 2006 album, Priceless. Although it didn't chart well, he said, watching his song go from recording to mixing to mastering to music video was the confirmation that he needed to press on. Kelly’s work so impressed Akon that in late 2007, the singer suggested Kelly write to some of his music, one of which was "Forgive Me", written for Leona Lewis' debut album and produced by Akon respectively. Another song he wrote was "Hold My Hand" which was set to feature on Akon's third album, however the song leaked and it was decided not to be included in the album. The song features Michael Jackson. At present, he's working with Whitney Houston and Christina Aguilera.

I Believe In Us
Claude Kelly Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We going on and on to history.
People falling in and out of love.
Everyday in every country, people breaking up.
But you and I, let's be the acception.
We've been through ups and downs, hills and vallies.
We've passed the honeymoon stage.
Never realized how much it would take to keep this alive.
But I want to stay together, baby.
So if there is a mountain, I'm bound to climb it.
And no matter how deep, you know I would dive it.
To keep us from being another statistic.
Promise I ain't never quit it, I'm in it to win it.

[Chorus:]
How do you go through it all cause baby deep down, I believe in us.
Even when my back's up against the wall, I ain't gon' bail down when the times get rough.
Anything you need girl, you know I would.
[? ] if that's what it took.
So ain't no way I'm giving up.
I believe in us, I believe in us, I believe in us.

Roll up my sleeves, get dirty, I ain't scared of a little hard work.
No pain, no gain, no matter how it hurts.
Stay up all night, give you my undivided attention.
Any mountain you know I would climb it.
And no matter how deep, girl you know I would dive it.
To keep us from being another statistic.
Promise I ain't never quit it, I'm in it to win it.

[Chorus:]
How do you go through it all cause baby deep down, I believe in us.
Even when my back's up against the wall, I ain't gon' bail down when the times get rough.
Anything you need girl, you know I would.
[? ] if that's what it took.
So ain't no way I'm giving up.
I believe in us, I believe in us, I believe in us.

There ain't no limit to where we can go.
Our destiny is right here in our control.
Can't no one tell me it's impossible.
As long as we got us, I'm heading down the road.

[Chorus: x2]
How do you go through it all cause baby deep down, I believe in us.
Even when my back's up against the wall, I ain't gon' bail down when the times get rough.
Anything you need girl, you know I would.
[? ] if that's what it took.




So ain't no way I'm giving up.
I believe in us, I believe in us, I believe in us

@dathoedezt There is nothing wrong with claude kelly's music. He has several different songs with different beats. I say, if you don't like it, find a different song that you will like and listen to that instead. No one's forcing you to listen to this song or any song really.
