I Believe
I hated my payday
Creditors I couldn't pay
The pain I felt was like one of a stingray
O! Lord I pray
This misery can't stay
Please flee
Hear my plea
Look at me
My eyes are bloody
Fly away, misery
My Lord please, lend me a key
I'm on my knee
Asking a shadow of your tree
I need to be free
Please give me the key
To unlock my misery
What a relieve
I'm no longer naïve
I standing before you with disbelieve
You are swift to hear
Now I believe! I believe!
Today I'm a man
Respected by my woman
Because my Lord you are real man
You gave me what I needed as man
Means to provide for my family like other man
Thank you Lord, you are a real man
Now I believe.
Because I believed
I did not lose hope to continue to live
Contentment surpass me I leave
To work for my children to better their lives
Now my pay day I enjoy like being on leave
All this was impossible If I did not believe
Now I believe!
