Told Me To Believe

[Verse 1]
Looking at your grave with a stare
And even though you gone physically, I still know that you there
I can feel you, I know that you still looking over me
Smiling at the man that you promised I would grow to be
Told me that God is the one to believe in
And do you stop when they call you odd? Not even
I stopped eating for days when my Grandma passed
Come back, is that too much to ask?
I guess it is ‘cause it’s getting close to five years
So every song I write is representing my tears
But even through the sadness, there’s still hope
‘cause you always in my heart everywhere that I go
Know you proud ‘cause I didn’t let them soul-sellers off me
What can I say? That’s the way that you taught me
I’m getting closer to my dreams
And when I do make it, I won’t let your words be forsaken

[Chorus]
I wake up every day realizing you gone
So I had to write this song
Everything you taught me to be in this life
Even though you ain’t walking with me
Everything you want me to be
You always told me to believe
Everything you want me to be
You always told me to believe

[Verse 2]
Everything I need to, don’t let ‘em mislead you
Filling your head with lies, saying they don’t need you
Gotta stay strong even though you ain’t here
I still got a message that the world needs to hear
And even though it may sound cliche to you
It’s what she wanted me to do
The family they miss you, remembering the times that we had
So the thought of you was always on our mind
Be a man, it’s hard for me to understand
Why death took away my number one fan
Tryna fight depression, man, it got a tight grip
But you told me don’t fall even if I might trip
(my bad, let me take a second to get myself together)
And I can say all day that I miss you
But I’ma prove it and never forget you

[Chorus]
I wake up everyday realizing you gone
So I had to write this song
Everything you taught me to be in this life
Even though you ain’t walking with me
Everything you want me to be
You always told me to believe
Everything you want me to be
You always told me to believe
