Description
not a pure hip hop song at all... about believing that the music I make does and will serve a purpose. Wasn't entirely sure what direction to go with this song and to me it still sounds a little bit disjointed but I'm pretty sure this is the final version. Let me know what you think...

Lyrics
Chorus
I believe in my heart
Deep in my soul
When I'm falling apart
Something inside keeps me whole
I believe right now
And I'll believe tomorrow
I believe because
I just cannot let it go

Rap1
What is it inside of me,
That keeps me on my feet when I've gotten weak,
When the pressure of problems that bother me,
And questions press in 'till I drop and bleed
I'm a one in a million shot like the lottery
But regardless of the odds I can't stop the dream
I can't not believe, cause these drops of ink
Are all that fall even when I think
I might cry, I just try to write,
And nod my head until these black teardrops are dry
It's like another reality I escape to
My heart beats, and the page is the speaker it plays through

Bridge
And I know
I will be
Tested but
I believe

Chorus

Verse 2
I sit at home and I sing
I sit alone and I think
I sit and mold my dream
But I gotta get out there
Or what will it mean?
Cause I can carry a tune
And it can carry me
But I wouldn't write another note
If I didn't believe in this melody

Bridge

Interlude
(I believe) -if it didn't matter to me whether or not I succeed
(I believe ) -I guess it wouldn't really matter whether or not I believe
But I believe in my heart (in my heart)
I believe in my soul
I believe 3x

Chorus

Rap2
And what would it matter what I said if I didn't believe it
Another fake trying to make it, the industry doesn't need it
I'd only be wastin the air I'm breathin
But there is a purpose, I have a reason
And it goes much deeper than a fantasy or wish
More than a dreaming kid imagining making a hit
And I wanna show the world this is real
But right now all I can do is tell you how I feel

Chorus

Good song
Very cool sounding.

I think I like the sung parts better than the rapped bits. Combining the two is rather early 90s, not?

yeah, i believe... that you are a great songwriter...
..and singer, too. Didn't see this one last year. must have come out when i was between here and nowhere, so i missed it. This is a real great listen. you really know how to write a song and make it interesting even as you straddle the fence of pop and hip-hop/rap. somehow it manages to appeal to both sensibilities. your melodies are catchy, but somehow you manage to inject sense and substance in your lyrics to give the listener more than just aural delight but also something to think and ponder about. i can nod and shake my head to this and still not feel guilty that i am just responding to the rhythm, but also apppreciating the message it carries. thumbs up, man.
