Gammer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'ma say all the words inside my head
I'm fired up and tired of the way that things have been, oh-ooh
The way that things have been, oh-ooh
Second thing second
Don't you tell me what you think that I could be
I'm the one at the sail, I'm the master of my sea, oh-ooh
I was broken from a young age
Taking my sulking to the masses
Writing my poems for the few
That look at me, took to me, shook to me, feeling me
Singing from heartache from the pain
Taking my message from the veins
Speaking my lesson from the brain
Seeing the beauty through the
Pain
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Pain
You break me down and build me up, believer, believer
Pain
Oh, let the bullets fly, oh, let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from
Pain
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Third things third
Send a prayer to the ones up above
All the hate that youβve heard
Has turned your spirit to a dove, oh-ooh
Your spirit is above, oh-ooh
I was chokin' in the crowd
Building my rain up in the cloud
Falling like ashes to the ground
Hoping my feelings, they would drown
But they never did, ever lived, ebbin' and flowin'
Inhibited, limited 'til it broke open and rained down
It rained down, like
Pain
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Pain
You break me down and build me up, believer, believer
Pain
Oh, let the bullets fly, oh, let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from
Pain
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
The lyrics of Gammer's song Believer are about overcoming adversity and finding strength through pain. The singer is fired up and tired of the way things have been and is determined to take control of their own life. They are the master of their own destiny, and refuse to let anyone else tell them who they are or what they can achieve.
The singer reflects on their past, when they were broken from a young age and turned to writing poetry as a way to express themselves. They found solace in the few people who understood and connected with their words. Through heartache and pain, the singer learned a valuable lesson and was able to see the beauty in life.
The chorus of the song is an anthem to overcoming pain and adversity. The singer acknowledges that the pain has made them who they are today, and they are a believer because of it. The pain has both broken them down and built them up, but ultimately their life, love, and drive all stem from this pain.
The lyrics then shift to the perspective of those who have faced hate and discrimination. The singer encourages sending a prayer to the ones up above and reminds them that their spirit can rise above the hate like a dove. The singer acknowledges that they too have felt the weight of the crowd and have had to battle their own demons. But they have learned to keep pushing forward, even when their feelings threaten to consume them.
