Song Lyrics

"Believe feat Jennifer Knapp"

by GRITS
Album: The Art Of Translation

What do you believe'
What do you believe'

Everybody needs something to see, something to feel, and something to be, yeah,
Everybody needs something as proof, something in hand to know the truth,
Everybody needs something to see, something to feel, and something to be, yeah,
Everybody needs something as proof, something in hand to know the truth,
Everybody needs something to see, something to feel, and something to be, yeah,
Everybody needs something as proof, something in hand to know the truth.

Living lavish like the Biltmore,
What the blood spilt for'
A ship in harbour safe but that ain't what it's built for,
Do all I can to help you get more, if you forgive my slight intrusion,
I see this night is confusing, 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 manifesting, blocking blessings with the questions that you hear me ask you,
Keep it up, so much will pass you,
You can make it on a prayer, yeah, that's true,
Barely getting by when you can do more, why would you want to'
Forgetting that the wood's dry, and the fires on you,
Life's a hassle, be prepared to wrestle,
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 too, where your fears lose.
Let's go.

Everybody needs something to see, something to feel, and something to be, yeah,
Everybody needs something as proof, something in hand to know the truth,
Everybody needs something to see, something to feel, and something to be, yeah,
Everybody needs something as proof, something in hand to know the truth.

There's 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 absolute truth, replace it with lies, use ignorance as excuse,
It's hard to conceive what the mind can't comprehend, and harder to believe what the eyes can't understand,
We look to theory, philosophy and thought for a sure foundation in a belief we once sought,
While the shadow of truth casts 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 it's direction of light for God's glory,
The saga continues, 'cause most hearts are deceived,
If we really wanted truth, we would live and believe,
So the saga continues, 'cause most hearts are deceived,
If we really wanted truth, we would live and believe in it.

Everybody needs something to see, something to feel, and something to be, yeah,
Everybody needs something as proof, something in hand to know the truth, yeah,
Everybody needs something to see, something to feel, and something to be, yeah,
Everybody needs something as proof, something in hand to know the truth,
Everybody needs something to see, something to feel, and something to be, yeah,
Everybody needs something as proof, something in hand to know the truth,
Everybody needs something to see, something to feel, and something to be, yeah,
Everybody needs something as proof, something in hand to know the truth,
(fade)
