Believe

I wrote this song in May of 2009. It was my way of expressing that my and I had come to the end of a rough time:)

I Believe

I can't explain these feelings of shame

that fill up my soul break down my heart again

I want to express the feelings of pain

and apologize for the hurt and the bitterness

you feel like you can't go on

I want to know

I don't blame you

It's a miracle that we're still going

almost like a bird that's trying

to fly to the moon

when it feels like we can't breathe

we keep on swimming

up stream

try to find a better place to believe

we hold on to the other still contemplate

no difference between what we want and what we get

whose paying the discounts

you keep telling me it's the holding on to hope

that helps us get free and you believe we will

make a difference in your mind grow on up and believe in time

that we will shine like the stars in the sky

There ain't no way that I can stay

keep on living likes it ok

is there a chance that I may change

and you believe that there is

we will come to know what freedom is

it's like the perfect way to give

the gift of knowing what love is

not a paranoid fight or flight

not always needing to be right

not catching you in your spite

it's hoping that we might

stand together in our life

to beat the shame back with our light

ride off triumphantly into the night

with our hope down at our side

looking straight into your eyes

believing that your for my life

I believe you're for my life
