"I Believe You" Lyrics
-----------------------------------
It’s the sick to your stomach feeling with a smile on your face
It’s the memory you ignore, but you can’t erase
It’s the text in the middle of the night you didn’t ask for
It can help your career, but at what cost?
Are you holding back something that you’re dying to say?
Me, too
Girl, I believe you
Are you losing your mind thinking what will it take
To make somebody listen to you?
Me, too
It’s the room full of rumors and everybody starin’
Did they tell you you were asking for it by what you were wearin’?
It’s the stains from your makeup and tears on your pillow
It’s a piece of yourself that you let go
Do you wanna scream but just can’t find the air?
Me, too
Girl, I believe you
Are you losing your mind thinking what will it take
To make somebody listen to you?
Me, too
They say step up and sit down
Shut up and back down
So what’s up, yeah, what’s up with that?
So we dress up, get felt up
Get shot down, don’t speak up
Yeah, what's up, yeah, what's up with that?
Are you holding back something
That you’ve just been dying to say?
Me, too
Girl, I believe you
Do you know every battle that you've had to face
Is making you bulletproof?
Me, too
Me, too
Girl, I believe you
Do you know every battle that you've had to face
Is making you bulletproof?
Me, too
Girl, I believe you

Men can be victims of sexual assault too. Not just women. Anyone who's felt the ugly hand of it should hear this song. We just need to teach people not to do it. It's not that hard to respect the word "no."

[@warriorxblake1888]

I'm not a hard affected survivor, i've hardly suffered the trauma the way many of you beautiful and strong women have, but I'll still stand with you and I'll still listen to you, because I believe you. And it's important that more people step forward to be a shoulder to cry on, so anyone who needs a hand i've got you

[@chiarazero8]

This song isn't getting enough attention. It conveys a beautiful message and everyone should listen to it. And it's not even just this song, all of Fletcher's works should be more known and get more credit for they are all beautiful and deep pieces of art.

[@em-pr5jv]

It's been 3 years since this song has been released and I currently still have it on repeat everyday. It's such an inspiring and amazing song. Fletcher did an AMAZING job on this song. It's helped so many people find the courage to speak up about their assault, and it also reminded survivors that what happened to them wasn't their fault and that it doesn't redefine who they are in anyway.

[@lauralia5679]

As a kid, I was sexually abused by a family member. Teachers were so “professional” they talked about it to other kids parents etc. After word spread the whole school knew. Thats when I got bullied for “making it up” by other kids. This song made a knot on my throat.

[@SpaztasticSheep]

I'm so sorry to hear about that. I'm also a survivor of CSA and it really fucked up my brain. Large parts of childhood are just... absent. I barley remember anything but the bad times. Sending love and strength

[@traviamento4670]

Kelly WN agreed! it needs to go viral!

[@jammyjamjars6995]

I think the me too movement turned into a witch hunt and don't agree that we should take people solely by their word when it comes to sexual assault... but god this songs amazing! 😀

[@ssagere4958]

What about the falsely accused "rapists"? Whatever happened to equality?

[@unicornrainbowz5293]

Supreeta Sagere Statistics show that innocent convicts rarely ever face charges. Yes, there are some unfortunate cases but overall, most rapists don’t even get convicted. Studies have also shown that half of all false accusations are inflicted by someone other than the victim. That being said. Only 100 out of 1000 rapists are reported. That of which only 30 face trial and lastly only 10 are jailed. The statistic of imprisoning any rapist is extremely low. The movement was encouragement for women to speak out and connect due to most women are afraid of the consequences of speaking the truth.

[@sarahliggett5945]

I just found this song on a particularly tough day battling the memories and the harsh words of those who didn’t believe me. It didn’t matter that he plead guilty or went to jail. There were those who said it was my fault and it still guts me. This song gives me a lot of peace and comfort

I hope this song helps a lot of other women. If you're dealing with this, please know you're worth loving yourself and you are never alone. ❤

[@spiritedalien]

When the line came *me too* I felt that!! Actually this whole song is all about feelings..

[@addictiveillusions5667]

Thank you for such a powerful song and message that's bringing survivors together. Support is the most important factor and too often things are hard to talk openly about with people that haven't had those types of experiences because their lack of insight breeds responses that they may honestly believe are innocuous (and sometimes they just don't think about how to respond empathically) but are devasting to the survivor... And that only begets more walls being built by the survivor making it harder to find the necessary support to get through

[@pastry1001]

[@lindseywoykin6354]

God dam this song is amazing. Hits so hard really makes ya feel for the people going through this. The lyrics themselves how they incorporated saying me to so subtly not in a big flashy way it's just there and works perfectly. And then the verse at the end is so uplifting I love when artists are able to change the last chorus to show that what was struggled with in the first part is eventually overcome to some degree. Incredible song and love the music, vocals as well, sad I hadn't heard it till now hope it gets more attention

[@clamclaps5971]

I remember sharing this song with someone who was special to me. We had both gone through a terrible experience in our lives and it warmed me to see that she took comfort in this song as I did. I hope she stays strong.

i wish someone told me "i believe you" when i told them what was happening to me.a few years ago i told this one teacher and she said she would look into it, however, after she met the person who was ab*sing me, she said that they were "so nice" and that she believes them instead of me. i mean, thats what many ab*sers do they manipulate people, around others they acted so nice but when we're alone? that's a whole different story. it wasn't the only time someone didn't believe me when i asked them for help but that incident is stuck in my mind and i didn't tell anyone for a few more years cause i was so afraid that someone else would act the same way. however, i did end up getting out of that situation. i just wished that people had believed me so i would have gotten away sooner. i still deal with the trauma everyday and it makes me so sad that i'm definitely not the only one who has been thru situations like this
