"Believe It" is a melodramatic plea for trust and forgiveness in a relationship, with a dash of ego and power dynamics thrown in for good measure. The singer is essentially saying, "Hey babe, I might have messed up in the past, but can we just forget about that? Also, if you leave me, I'll be as good as dead." There's also an undercurrent of insecurity here - he's worried she'll reject his proposal or embarrass him. He acknowledges her power (both generally and sexually), but also seems to resent it a bit. Meanwhile, he's dealing with trust issues on his side too - he loves her but doesn't fully trust her. And let's not forget the family drama - his mom is already video calling her! So basically, it's your typical modern love story: complicated, messy and full of mixed signals.
BELIEVE IT
Lyrics
(Ayy Biz, good lookin', foo)
Bae
Best make me believe it (best make me be-)
Best make me believe it
Believe you won't deceive me
Hey
Best make me believe it (best make me believe it)
Best make me believe it (best make me believe it)
Believe you won't deceive me
First you gotta forgive me
Let me know everything gon' be okay
Even if I come out with everything I did
Would you still punish me even though I did a long time ago?
If so, let me know
If I propose, would you say no?
Would you break my heart?
Would you embarrass me or play your part?
Baby, don't fold, my heart is yours
You got the power, pussy power
You got the power, pussy power
The floor is yours, the time is ours
Hey, either believe me or you don't
Choose to believe me or you won't
If you leave me, I'm skull and bones, I'm dead, baby
You told me
Bae (ooh)
Best make me believe it (best make me be-)
Best make me believe it
Believe you won't deceive me
Hey
Best make me believe it (best make me believe it)
Best make me believe it (best make me believe it)
Believe you won't deceive me
Bae
You told me that you'd kill me if I fuck up (kill me if I fuck up)
You told me I'm a lucky motherfucker (lucky motherfucker)
You love 'em, but you never ever trust 'em
Never ever trust me, no (never ever trust me, no)
There's three sides to the story
And that girl got a good PR (good PR)
I knew we'd never make it far
Because I like my bitches black and mama tar
Oh, whoa
Tell me you love me 'cause I know they won't
They wanna fit in for the photoshoot
Put them aside, baby, I notice you
My niggas hype, baby, they hypin' you
My family like you, yeah, they likin' you
My mama WhatsApp and she Skype you
She wanna know why didn't you say, "Either way?"
You
Best make me believe it (best make me be-)
Best make me believe it
Believe you won't deceive me
Hey
Best make me believe it (best make me believe it)
Best make me believe it (best make me believe it)
Believe you won't deceive me
Bae
