Текст Laws, Jason Caesar — Believer
Make me a believer, make me a believer
I wonder what I can’t see, just something to believe
Make me a believer, make me a believer
And I believe in you ex-cons
You out on good behavior but you getting stepped on
At job interviews, you see in they eyes
They looking at you like they wonder why you even applied
You wonder too ’cause you keep on trying and they keep ignoring
And you thinking of switching numbers ‘cause the streets is calling
Your old friends keep on coming by your mom’s crib
And they imposing, you just trying to let your mom live
You wanna fix your life and show her that you ain’t a quitter
Some nights, you find her crying, holding out your baby pictures
And do something with yourself so she don’t have to cry
Fix your tie, go and get the classifieds, homie I believe
I wonder what I can’t see, just something to believe
Make me a believer, make me a believer
And I believe in you working mothers
‘Cause if you can’t support your family, what’s the purpose of it?
Minus a husband or a boyfriend, man this shit is crazy
You fellas think you get a ribbon for participating
You making kids, then raise them, no other option out
I tip my glass to you ‘cause you was never copping out
College classes on the web, you ain’t dropping out
Nine to five at Walmart, six to ten at Waffle House
And you got a house, fully furnished too
Your kids are getting hit with lessons that they learned in school
They see the way you get it done and then they turn to you
Mesmerized by all of the work you do, mommy I believe
And I believe in my soldiers
Do your duty, stay sharp and get home bro
You salute another man but he doesn’t own ya
Keep your fam close to heart when them boys on ya
You kept a photo of your wife, all through basic
And then you kissed her goodbye and she could barely take it
Right then, you realized that you might never get the chance again
And so you made a promise, riding on that plane
If I ever get home again, I’ll cherish what’s important
Take nothing for granted, as you thinking this, your boy gets hit
As the plane lands, you can feel your fear rise
So you say a prayer like God, if you hear mine, I believe
