Believe

People say find contentment, they say I should get a job 'Cause they don't think this is working They say "Jake, it's been years, you haven't gotten very far" Am I living with vision or is this something I'll regret They don't doubt I have passion, but they ask "what makes me different from the rest?" I know my dreams don't fit your plans Why can't my dreams just be my plans I want someone to believe in me I'm not crazy I just want you to see That life's short and people aren't living at all People aren't living They're so scared for my future Asking if I got it wrong Reminding me of the pressure Of a man making a living from a song I know my dreams don't fit your plans Why can't my dreams just be my plans I want someone to believe in me I'm not crazy I just want you to see That life's short and people aren't living at all People aren't living When is enough, enough When are you going to move on When are you going to go back to college Do you even make any money Are you going to get a real job How are you going to provide for a family What about your future How do you know this is going to work out What if it doesn't What if it's not meant to be
