I Believe (song lyrics)

By Ricardo Burgos, Jr. 

-

(chorus)

I believe in love, I believe in trust

But it’s hard to find in a world corrupt

I believe in love, I believe in trust

But it’s so hard to find, yeah

 

(verse 1)

The streets are rough, the hood is tough

No one to trust, my gun’s a must

I seen, I saw the ones I love

Die because of the one they trust

The streets are cold, the nights are long

The days are filled with family mourns

You said you cared, you disappeared

You turned your back when I needed you here

The love I give is unconditional

But the love I get is unpredictable

Don’t want to speak on all the hate I see

It’s like every day someone is hating on me

You shake my hand, but I can sense the fake

The eyes don’t like, I can see the snake

Where do I go if I wanna escape?

No one to trust, no love to make

 

(chorus)

I believe in love, I believe in trust

But it’s hard to find in a world corrupt

I believe in love, I believe in trust

But it’s so hard to find, yeah

 

(verse 2)

The love is fake, the hate is real

No one to help, no one that cared

The pain is deep, my wounds will heal

But I had to hurt to see the real

The plots, the schemes, the evil stares

It’s hard to smile and be yourself

Why can’t we all just get along

And give our best to right our wrongs?

The blood is shed, the hate has grown

Nothing to do but grab the chrome

This world won’t change, the peace is gone

This life will be, yeah, forever cold

I see the love when I see the kids

But what can I do to help them live?

Teach them right and instill within

To trust your heart and love yourself

 

(chorus)

I believe in love, I believe in trust

But it’s hard to find in a world corrupt

I believe in love, I believe in trust

But it’s so hard to find, yeah
