Believe
Huey Mack Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I had days without a clearing, getting worst
And I don't quite know what's next for me
All I know is one thing I need!
I need you to believe, to believe, to believe
I just want you to believe, to believe, to believe
I need you to believe, to believe, to believe
I just want you to believe, to believe, to believe in me!
I like to overthink and that's the death of me
I'm a normal kid, but got all these tendencies
I want you to remember me for me and not the person that I try to be
Cause who I try to show you, isn't really who's inside of me!
I got a big heart, but I don't always show it well
I was never the type for show and tell!
So I never let nobody know how much I care
And if I did is probably cause I really want them here!
Yeah, my insecurities will keep me going
But you wouldn't know, cause I never show 'em
I'm the kid that never had no humble path
Never had no one way, when I was down... by my side
When I dropped out of school I thought that I will be a failure
So depressed, so alone, in need of a savior!
But lately everything's been looking up
Cause I felt something in somebody that I truly loved!
I've been down before enough, been hurt
I had days without a clearing, getting worst
And I don't quite know what's next for me
All I know is one thing I need!
I need you to believe, to believe, to believe
I just want you to believe, to believe, to believe
I need you to believe, to believe, to believe
I just want you to believe, to believe, to believe in me!
A year ago I had everything figured out
I was twenty, finally seeing real money in my bank account
At the same time my momma was losing her house
I was spending a couple of hundreds every night going out.
Now I'm thinking maybe I should go back to school,
But it's hard when nobody has no advice for you!
Uh, I'm just giving everything up for a dream,
I'm just trying to believe, not knowing if I succeed
But you'll never know if you don't roll the dice
That's why I'm going out to grab what I want in life
They want the chance, want the fame, and they want the lights
I want the nice house and three... and be there and support my wife!
I want the family I never had
I saw the good in all the bad, I just pray to God I won't make it back!
They say I'm coming out fast
But I'm just really praying that's gonna last!
I've been down before enough, been hurt
I had days without a clearing getting worst
And I don't quite know what's next for me
All I know is one thing I need!
I need you to believe, to believe, to believe
I just want you to believe, to believe, to believe
I need you to believe, to believe, to believe
I just want you to believe, to believe, to believe
In me, in me, in me!
Believe to believe to believe!

They say I'm coming out fast
People say that I'm becoming successful quickly

But I hope that this success is sustained and long-lasting
In me, in me, in me!
In me, in me, in me!
Believe to believe to believe!
