Believe In Me
Stigma ft. L Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My dedication for the cause
And the wishes I've withdrawn
Blessed me with nothing but the blame
For friendships lost and virtues gone

My loyalty and honesty
Held nothing but decay
Blessed me with nothing but the blame
If we had lost our way

Why don't you believe in me
Despite the battles we have won
Why still sacrifice myself
I have no strength to carry on

The invidia of those surrounding
Forges doubts in what I do
And breaks the chains that years have tied
After all that we've been through

Why don't you believe in me
Despite the battles we have won
Why still sacrifice myself
I have no strength to carry on

Why don't you believe in me
Despite the battles we have won




Why still sacrifice myself
I have no strength to carry on

My dedication for the cause
My devotion towards this purpose or mission


And the wishes I've withdrawn
And the desires that I have given up


Blessed me with nothing but the blame
Resulted in me being blamed


For friendships lost and virtues gone
For losing friends and morality


My loyalty and honesty
My faithfulness and truthfulness


Held nothing but decay
Ended up being worthless


If we had lost our way
If we had gone astray from our path


The invidia of those surrounding

Forges doubts in what I do
Creates uncertainties in my actions


And breaks the chains that years have tied
Breaks the relationships that have lasted for years


After all that we've been through
Despite everything that we have experienced together


Why don't you believe in me
Why aren't you trusting me


Despite the battles we have won
Even after all the victories we have achieved


Why still sacrifice myself
Why am I still putting myself through this hardship


I have no strength to carry on
I don't have the power to continue further
