[Verse 1]
I want to tell her that yes, I believe
And I'll be what she wants me to be
Too bad it was presented
In a style I resented
I can't be what she wants me to be
[Verse 2]
She wants her great-grandkids to believe
In a god and not the violence that she sees on TV
The millions without love starved for affection
May find some comfort in a forced resurrection
I can be the judge, but I know it's not for me
[Verse 3]
But if people trust in themselves
And believe in each other
Believe in each other
The hate could not last
The violence would pass
We'd all be like sisters and brothers
I'd believe, I'd believe, I'd believe
[Verse 4]
If the time people spent lookin' up to the skies
Was spent on each other and breakin' down lies
I'd believe, I'd believe
I'd get down on my knees
Get down on my knees
I'd believe, I'd believe, I'd believe
[Outro]
I'd believe, I'd believe, I'd believe
I'd believe, I'd believe, I'd believe
