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!
