M.I.A. - Believer [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: M.I.A.]
There's main steam
With the main dreams
But waterfalls start with a little stream
Even Kubrick started with a small scene
Before it became The Shining
If your coming from the hood work on getting nowledge
If your from the front then you wanna survive
I didn't choose the battles but the battles chose me
When the bullet first hit my cousin Willsie
I been in the game now 5.3
Lil shorty but got shorties after me
I stay humble from the shit I see
Cause I already know there's only one me

[Hook: Blaqstarr]
I really would like see the star shine
But I keep getting covered up in hard time
Oooh, I need to let loose
And the water ran dry, and we got no juice
Oh they need a believer

[Verse 2: M.I.A.]
There's no means and there's more me
Every tree started with a little breeze
Everything you go through at 17
Will it still count at 70?
If I'm coming from the streets then I'm getting money
But my ideas in the bank are worth plenty
I didn't choose the music but the music chose me
The art of hitting your speakers making it bleed
I've been thinking about what affects me
The will to survive is always in me
Every glass of water grows what I be
And every glass of liquor gets me tipsy

[Hook]

[Verse 3: M.I.A.]
It's about people not money
Light up parliament, turn a car key
I could be a genius, you could be a cheat
It's a thin line, I'm fucking with it
I didn't choose the struggle but the struggle chose me
I'm bouncing on the rubble permanently
I'm cut from the cloth that you made me
Driving down the alley these cats know me
If it's not cool, then we bring heat
If there's no heat then it's discreet
If it's got your feet then, it's on NEET
Anything on NEET has got that beat

[Hook]
