LYRICS:
*************************************************************

I believe that mankind
Is blind to the truth
All hypocrites, mental terrorists
And bigots rule the world
I believe, that I believe

I believe that we have
Lost joy completely
We are out of touch with our
Feelings and don't know the way
I believe, that I believe

I don't need a bible
To tell me how to live
I don't need your advice
I got to find my own way

I believe in me and the universe
I believe that life can be beautiful
And that I have the right to be here
I believe

I don't need the plastic god
Of the church to show the way
I don't want to be controlled,
I have my own words to say
