I Believe

[Verse 1]
Everything I own is everything I owe
If it's only dope can I keep my soul? (Yeah)
Yo, I don't even know, I struggle just to cope
Hanging by a thread and you hang a rope (Yeah)

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm more than just the numbers on a paycheck
Working hard, don't pay just to live less
Oh my God, I'm waiting for the recess
Give me strength to change my life, I need this, I need this

[Chorus]
'Cause I believe I'll be free
One day, I'll be free
Maybe I'm smoking that good shit
I believe I'll be free
One day I'll be free
No matter what time
The present ain't in my mind

[Verse 2]
Mama always said just enjoy the ride
The grass ain't always greener on the other side, well (Yeah)
Well, I don't got no quarrel with this concrete jungle
But I don't see no grass unless I'm smoking it (Yeah)

[Pre-Chorus]
Takes more than just the numbers on a paycheck
Working hard, don't pay you just to live less
Oh my God, I'm waiting for the recess
Give me strength to change the things I needed, I need this

[Chorus]
'Cause I believe I'll be free
One day, I'll be free
Maybe I'm smoking that good shit
I believe I'll be free
One day I'll be free
No matter what time
The present ain't in my mind

[Outro]
Save me, save me
No matter how hard the time
I keep my head high
