FORT MINOR
"Believe Me"
feat. Eric Bobo & Styles of Beyond

I guess that this is where we've come to
If you don't want to, then you don't have to believe me
But I won't be there when you go down
Just so you know now, you're on your own now, believe me

Yo, I don't wanna be the one to blame
You like fun and games, keep playin' 'em, I'm just sayin'
Think back then, we was like one and the same
On the right track, but I was on the wrong train

It's like that, now you gotta face the pain
And the devil's got a fresh new place to play
In your brain like a maze, you can never escape
The rain, every damn day's the same shade of grey

Hey, I used to have a little bit of a plan
Used to, have a concept of where I stand
But that concept slipped right outta my hand
Now, I don't really even know who I am

Yo, what do I have to say, maybe
I should do what I have to do to break free, and
Whatever happens to you, we'll see
But it's not gonna happen with me

I guess that this is where we've come to
If you don't want to, then you don't have to believe me
But I, won't be there when you go down
Just so you know now, you're on your own now, believe me

Back then, I thought you were just like me
Somebody who could see all the pain I see
But you proved to me unintentionally
That you would self-destruct eventually

Now I'm thinkin' like the mistake I made doesn't hurt
But it's not gonna work 'cause it's really much worse than I thought
I wished you were something you were not
And now this guilt is really all that I've got

You turned your back and walk away, ashamed
All you got is a memory and pain
Nothing makes sense so you stare at the ground
And hear my voice in your head when no one else is around

So what do I have to say, maybe
I should do what I have to do to break free, and
Whatever happens to you, we'll see
But it's not gonna happen with me

I guess that this is where we've come to
If you don't want to, then you don't have to believe me
But I, won't be there when you go down
Just so you know now, you're on your own now, believe me

(Yeah)
(Let's go)

I guess that this is where we've come to
If you don't want to, then you don't have to believe me
But I, won't be there when you go down
Just so you know now, you're on your own now, believe me

I'm doin' what I have to do
You're on your own now, believe me
Whatever happens to you
You're on your own now, believe me

What do I have to say?
You're on your own now, believe me
It's not gonna happen with me
You're on your own now, believe me
