Krayzie Bone
"I Still Believe"

Mariah [with Krayzie]:

No matter what, baby.
[Don't matter . . .]
No matter what people say
[Don't matter what they say . . .]
I'm gonna believe we can still be together.

Mariah:

Baby, I still believe [I still believe],
and it's more than my imagination--
it's so real--I know we're gonna be together [I'm gonna believe we can still be together].

Krayzie:

If you still believe [still believe],
then you will find everything you're searching for--maybe more.

Mariah:

But, boy, you seem to be lost in uncertainty.
But when you wake up you will know you never should have let it go.

Krayzie:

Believe me, my feeling has always been sure.
I just wasn't too certain that yours were legitimate, genuine, really the Real McCoy.

Mariah:

And after all this time
you look into my eyes
and everything is still the same--my love for you won't fade away.
Baby, I still believe [I still believe],
and it's more than my imagination--
it's so real--I know we're gonna be together.
Baby, I had a dream,
and it's more than my imagination,
because I still believe we belong together.

Krayzie:

I'm still a believer of this,
so stop, just listen and look into my eyes.
I want you to visualize and realize.
They say that it never been too easy
being Krayzie Bone. Temptations I'm battlin', with their persuasion, rattlin' in my brain.
Won't go insane--
I figure that's why they be callin' me Krayzie, cause I still maintain.
But we gotta struggle through all of them hard times,
but I gotta tell ya, peace and happiness is hard to find.
Come on! We can get there!
And I'm tryin to make excuses or reasons,
but these demons got me seein' things that's really been misleadin' me.
But maybe that's just my life. And maybe I'm just a thug,
cold-hearted, but I can feel the love.
Just keep the faith and don't break it,
shake all them fakers and haters,
and ask me then, 'Will we make it?'
I'll say 'Yea, uh-uh.'
You got to believe it. You got to believe it.

Mariah:

Baby, I still believe,
and it's more than my imagination--
it's so real--I know we're gonna be together [you know, you know].
Baby, I had a dream,
and it's more than my imagination [Baby, I believe]
because I still believe we belong together.

[Krayzie: Don't matter . . . don't matter what they say . . . I still believe it.]


If you want to view paradise.(if you want)
Think about our lovin', baby.(to view it)
Nothing could be closer to it. (until come)
If we don't believe, we'll lose it. (lets do it)

Krayzie:

C'mon. C'mon. C'mon, c'mon, c'mon.
If you can believe I can take you there,
c'mon and get down with the thug love that's in the air.
And ain't no reason, reason,
reason to stop your believin', -leavin'.
Stay real and I'ma stay real right back.
You know what I'm gettin' at,
you know the song:
gotta get control, and roll, roll, roll on.
I still believe in keepin' it real enough to achieve it.
I still believe simply just 'cause I still believe it. I believe it.

Mariah:

Baby, I still believe,
and it's more than my imagination--
it's so real--I know [I know we will, I know we will.] we're gonna be together.
Baby, I had a dream and it's more than my imagination,
because [because I still believe, in love again, my love] I still believe we belong together.
[And I still believe, see it's more than my imagination, i have a dream].

With Krayzie:

No matter what, baby. [Don't matter what . . .]No matter what people say
[Don't matter what they say . . .] I'm gonna believe we can still be together. Baby, I . . .
