Believer Lyrics
First things first
I'm say all the words inside my head
I'm fired up and tired of the way that things have been, oh-ooh
The way that things have been, oh-ooh
Second thing second
Don't you tell me what you think that I can be
I'm the one at the sail, I'm the master of my sea, oh-ooh
The master of my sea, oh-ooh
I was broken from a young age
Taking my sulkin to the masses
Write down my poems for the few
That looked at me took to me, shook to me, feeling me
Singing from heart ache from the pain
Take up my message from the veins
Speaking my lesson from the brain
Seeing the beauty through the...
Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Pain!
You break me down, you build me up, believer, believer
Pain!
I let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from...
Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Third things third
Send a prayer to the ones up above
All the hate that you've heard has turned your spirit to a dove, oh-ooh
Your spirit up above, oh-ooh
I was choking in the crowd
Living my brain up in the cloud
Falling like ashes to the ground
Hoping my feelings, they would drown
But they never did, ever lived, ebbing and flowing
Inhibited, limited
Till it broke up and it rained down
It rained down, like...
Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Pain!
You break me down, you build me up, believer, believer
Pain!
I let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, they came from...
Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Last things last
By the grace of the fire and the flames
You're the face of the future, you're the blood in my veins, oh-ooh
The blood in my veins, oh-ooh
But they never did, ever lived, ebbing and flowing
Inhibited, limited
Till it broke up and it rained down
It rained down, like...
Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Pain!
You break me down, you build me up, believer, believer
Pain!
I let the bullets fly, oh let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, they came from...
Pain!
You made me a, you made me a believer, believer
Believer - English Translation
Primero que nada
Digo todas las palabras dentro de mi mente
Estoy encendido y cansado de cómo han sido las cosas, oh-ooh
Cómo han sido las cosas, oh-ooh
En segundo lugar, en segundo
No me digas qué crees que puedo ser
Soy el que está al timón, soy amo de mi mar, oh-ooh
Amo de mi mar, oh-ooh
Fui roto desde temprana edad
Llevando mi amargura a la multitud
Escribe mis poemas para los pocos
Que me miraron, me aceptaron, me estremecieron, sintiendo en mí
Cantando del dolor del corazón, del dolor
Toma mi mensaje de las venas
Hablando mi lección de la mente
Viendo la belleza a través de...
¡Dolor!
Me hiciste uno, me hiciste un creyente, creyente
¡Dolor!
Me rompes, me levantas, creyente, creyente
¡Dolor!
Dejo que las balas vuelen, oh déjalas caer
Mi vida, mi amor, mi impulso, provienen de...
¡Dolor!
Me hiciste uno, me hiciste un creyente, creyente
En tercer lugar, en tercero
Envía una oración a los que están arriba
Todo el odio que has escuchado ha convertido tu espíritu en un colibrí, oh-ooh
Tu espíritu arriba, oh-ooh
Estaba asfixiado en la multitud
Vivía mi cerebro en la nube
Cayendo como cenizas al suelo
Esperando que mis sentimientos se ahogaran
Pero nunca lo hicieron, siempre vivieron, fluyendo y decreciendo
Inhibido, limitado
Hasta que se rompió y llovió
Llovió, como...
¡Dolor!
Me hiciste uno, me hiciste un creyente, creyente
¡Dolor!
Me rompes, me levantas, creyente, creyente
¡Dolor!
Dejo que las balas vuelen, oh déjalas caer
Mi vida, mi amor, mi impulso, provienen de...
¡Dolor!
Me hiciste uno, me hiciste un creyente, creyente
Últimas cosas últimas
Por la gracia del fuego y las llamas
Eres el rostro del futuro, eres la sangre en mis venas, oh-ooh
La sangre en mis venas, oh-ooh
Pero nunca lo hicieron, siempre vivieron, fluyendo y decreciendo
Inhibido, limitado
Hasta que se rompió y llovió
Llovió, como...
¡Dolor!
Me hiciste uno, me hiciste un creyente, creyente
¡Dolor!
Me rompes, me levantas, creyente, creyente
¡Dolor!
Dejo que las balas vuelen, oh déjalas caer
Mi vida, mi amor, mi impulso, provienen de...
¡Dolor!
Me hiciste uno, me hiciste un creyente, creyente
Meaning of Believer
“Believer” by Imagine Dragons is a powerfully raw and intensely personal exploration of resilience forged in the crucible of suffering, ultimately transforming pain into an unwavering source of strength. The song’s structure – divided into “First things first,” “Second thing second,” “Third things third,” and “Last things last” – mirrors a fragmented internal process, reflecting the speaker's journey through intense emotional turmoil. Initially, the lyrics depict a state of frustration and disillusionment (“I’m fired up and tired of the way that things have been”) stemming from a difficult past marked by feeling misunderstood and undervalued ("Taking my sulkin to the masses"). The repeated assertion “You made me a believer” isn't simply gratitude; it’s a declaration born from recognizing that this transformative experience – defined as ‘pain’ – was the catalyst for self-discovery. The imagery of being "broken from a young age," coupled with the act of “letting the bullets fly,” establishes a narrative of deliberate vulnerability, suggesting an acceptance and even harnessing of destructive forces. The recurring motif of rain, representing overwhelming emotions, highlights the cyclical nature of pain and recovery – it initially drowns feelings but ultimately nourishes growth through its ebb and flow.
Metaphorically, the speaker is portrayed as a ship ("I'm the master of my sea") navigating turbulent waters, constantly being “broken down” and “built up,” illustrating a process of continuous reconstruction. The references to prayers (“Send a prayer to the ones up above”) and spiritual transformation – "Your spirit up above, your spirit turned to a dove"– introduce a layer of faith and redemption. The “fire and flames” section symbolizes an internal ignition, transforming pain into fuel for creativity and drive, suggesting that the speaker’s passion and ambition originated not from external validation but from the depths of their personal struggle. Ultimately, "Believer" isn't about passively receiving belief; it’s about actively constructing one’s identity through embracing vulnerability, confronting hardship, and recognizing that profound transformation can emerge solely from experiencing – and ultimately accepting – pain as a fundamental component of self. The insistent repetition of “You made me a believer” solidifies this message: the speaker isn't defined by their past wounds but by their capacity to draw strength and purpose from them.
