Grits Album: The Art of Translation Track: Believe
Believe Lyrics
Everybody needs something to see Something to feel And something to be Everybody needs something as proof Something in hand To know the truth
Livin lavish like the biltmore What the blood spilt for A ship in harbor safe But that aint what its built for Do all I can to help you get more If you forgive my slight intrusion I see this night is confusin A constant fight with illusions Shed a light on conclusions What you desire is a way out Day in and day out Do not disturb signs so i'll stay out How long will you let the torture grasp you I see spirits manifestin Blockin blessings with the questions That you hear me ask you
Keep it up so muchwill pass you You can make it on a prayer Yeah that's true But barely getting by when you can do more Why would you want to Forgettin' that the wood's dry and the fires on you Lifes a hastle Be prepared to rastle It can be rough But it don't have to You can make it full of smiles Something to laugh to So pick and chose my message thick So squeeze and watch it ooze Make it a game to where your fears lose Lets go
Theres a way that seems right In the heart of a man And many angels of light In disguise destroying man So most chose to refuse The absolut truth Replace it with lies Use ignorance as an excuse It's hard to conceive What the mind can't comprehend And harder to believe What the eyes cant understand We look to theory philosophy and thought For a sure foundation In a belief we once sought While the shadow of truth Cast an image so clear The closer it gets
We reject it out of fear If we really wanted truth We would give our lives for it Walk in its direction of light For Gods glory So the saga continues Cause most hearts are deceived If we really wanted truth We would live and believe Still the saga continues Cause most hearts are deceived If we really wanted truth We would live and believe in it
