  • I believe that's love (that's love)
    I believe that's love
    I believe that's love (that's love)
    I believe that's love
    I believe love, love

    (Ooh-ooh) uh, of the things we believe
    There's a whole lot of work, we should roll up our sleeves
    And we got to hold firm when fateful sight conceiving
    Why doubt your plans? 'Cause it's all worth believing
    We can make it work, do believe that
    Leave mistrust in the dust and believe fact
    We can achieve tact by tuning out negative feedback
    Naysayers can hate, we concentrate to bring belief back
    Into ourselves, into the world, into the rap game
    Emcees are miserable, their music should be leaving mics maimed
    Man, look we holding out for the truth
    If we alone and aloof, we gon' hold for the proof
    Man, put it in believing, believe in believing
    Seeing ain't believing, it's the feeling that we needing
    Believe in each other, put the question to the system
    They promising returns? Then question what you getting
    We should believe in the reasons we existing
    Time for Renaissance to reawaken what is withered
    Belief can confirm, make it is what it isn't
    Sometimes I wish I had belief when I didn't

    I believe that's love (that's love) (let's go come on)
    I believe that's love (yeah, yeah, yeah)
    That's love (come on, come on)

    In the land of make-believe, time to make unbelief believable
    Taking belief to the realm of the real
    Believing this shit that's force-fed through the media
    Believing it's real when it's really a raw deal
    Never disbelieve when you see human miracle
    Like ghetto children shining bright in Babylon
    Believe in that, don't believe in stats to the contrary
    Gotta be weary of them theories, carry on
    People find belief when they don't find identity
    Believe in your friends, don't believe in your enemies
    Mountains of doubts and disbelief right in front of you
    Truth's on the other side, what you gon' do?

    Ooh-ooh, I believe
    Ooh, that's love, that's love
    I believe, ooh-ooh
    Ooh, that's love, that's love
    I believe love, love
    I believe love, love
