Make Me Believe
Finding Hope Amidst Life's Trials: 'Make Me Believe' by Aicelle Santos
Lyrics
Have you ever asked yourself oh why life’s unkind
Questioning why life can be cruel or unfair
Have you ever felt so down and helpless, it hurts inside
Feeling deeply low and powerless, causing internal pain
Have you ever tried to find the words
Attempting to articulate thoughts or emotions
Did it ever cross your mind
Considering a particular thought or idea
Have you ever stopped
Halting to confront emotions and allowing oneself to heal
And let your tears run dry
Experiencing emotions until they diminish
Have you ever climbed the highest mountain
Metaphorically attempting ambitious or challenging tasks
Or catch a falling star
Aspiring for something unattainable or rare
Have you ever searched your soul
Reflecting on one's innermost self
Followed your heart
Following one's emotions or instincts
Have you ever had the chance to say
Having an opportunity to express oneself honestly
Speak what’s on your mind
Voicing one's thoughts or feelings
Have you heard your voice that echoes in the night
Noticing one's own impact or resonance
Make me believe
Requesting for assurance or conviction
That my time will come
Believing that one's moment of success will arrive
One day you’ll give me wings so I can fly
Yearning for freedom or opportunities
Give me hope for now
Seeking encouragement in the present
So I won’t give up and pretend that I am glad
Struggling internally but putting on a facade of happiness
‘Cause deep inside I cry
Masking inner pain with external contentment
Make me believe
Reiterating the desire for belief or conviction
Will you ever try to understand
Questioning if someone will empathize or comprehend
Try to care
Asking if someone will make an effort to care
If you keep on falling more each day, will you stand again
Wondering if someone will recover from repeated setbacks
Will you always be just who you are
Questioning if someone will remain true to themselves
Will you always stay the same
Inquiring if someone will maintain consistency in character
Will you leave the mem’ries behind and face another day
Considering leaving past experiences behind to face the future
Will you give yourself another try
Contemplating giving oneself another chance
Are you ready for the fight
Preparing for a metaphorical battle or challenge
Will you show the world you’re strong enough
Planning to display inner strength to the world
Will you keep your head up high
Determining to maintain pride or self-esteem
Oh ‘cause deep inside I cry
Reiterating the hidden sadness within
Make me believe
Requesting for reassurance or conviction once more
