Believe Me
Fort Minor feat Bobo & Styles Of Beyond Lyrics

I guess that this is where we've come to
We've reached a point where things have gone wrong.

If you don't want to, then you don't have to believe me
You have the choice to believe me or not.

But I, won't be there when you go down
I won't be around to help you when things fall apart.

Just so you know now
I want you to be aware of this fact.

You're on your own now, believe me
You must face the consequences alone and trust me on this.

Yo, I don't wanna be the one to blame
I don't want the responsibility for the things that have gone wrong.

You like fun and games, keep playin' 'em
You're not taking things seriously and still want to have fun.

I'm just sayin'
I'm telling you the truth.

Think back then we was like one and the same
We used to be similar in our goals and aspirations.

On the right track, but I was on the wrong train
We were headed in the right direction, but I made a mistake and ended up going astray.

It's like that, now you gotta face the pain
Now you must deal with the consequences of our actions.

And the devil's got a fresh new place to play
Negative thoughts and emotions have taken over your mind.

In your brain like a maze you can never escape
You're trapped in your own negative thoughts and can't seem to escape.

The rain, every damn day's the same shade of grey
Life feels dull and uneventful, with each day seeming the same.

Hey, I used to have a little bit of a plan
I had some direction in my life before.

Used to, have a concept of where I stand
I knew where I stood in life before, but not anymore.

But that concept slipped right outta my hand
I lost my sense of direction.

Now, I don't really even know who I am
I'm lost and unsure of my identity.

Back then, I thought you were just like me
I believed that you understood me and what I was going through.

Somebody who could see all the pain I see
I thought you were able to relate to my pain.

But you proved to me unintentionally
You showed me, without meaning to, that you were unable to understand my pain.

That you would self destruct eventually
You were headed down a path towards self-destruction.

Now I'm thinkin' like the mistake that I made doesn't hurt
I'm trying to convince myself that my mistake didn't have much of an impact.

But it's not gonna work cause its
But deep down, I know that it won't work.

Really much worse than I thought
The situation is actually worse than I anticipated.

I wished you were something you were not
I wanted you to be something that you weren't.

And now this guilt is really all that I've got
Now, I'm left with only guilt and regret.

You turned your back and walk away ashamed
You left the situation and feel ashamed about it.

All you got, is a memory and pain, nothing makes sense
All you're left with is memories and pain, and nothing seems to make sense anymore.

You stare at the ground, and hear my voice inside your head
You're haunted by the past and my voice echoes in your mind.

When no one else is around
When you're alone.

I'm doing what I have to do
I'm taking the necessary steps to move forward.

Whatever happens to you
Whatever consequences you face.

You're on your own now believe me
You must face these consequences on your own and trust me on this.

What do I have to say?
What more can I say?

Its not gonna happen to me
I won't face the same consequences as you.
