Song Meaning
KB turns a stadium chant into a declaration of faith, borrowing the "I believe that we will win" refrain and bending it toward something sturdier than a scoreboard. The verses move through concrete ground: bragging rights that belong to God rather than first-week sales, a commitment to neighborhoods where bullets fly, and a refusal to abandon kids the system has written off. The line about fighting "from the double you" rather than for the W reframes victory as something already secured, not something still to be earned. Suffering gets honest treatment too — it humbles, breaks, and remakes a person, and God is the one who comforts through it. The bridge turns prophetic, commanding a paraplegic to dance, telling breast cancer it won't win, and promising that racism will end, with the caveat that what isn't healed now will be healed then. The repeated hook carries the whole thing, half anthem and half prayer, insisting that hope is not naive optimism but a settled conviction about where things are headed.

I (I)
I believe (I believe)
I believe that (I believe that)
I believe that we will win [x2]
Let me take it there
Please brag on what you did
How you smashed your first week sales
It ain't like your numbers make vaccines to heal weak cells
You brag when your money go somewhere besides yourself
I'm going with our voice
Where they got them bullets flyin' like it's PowerPoint
And then I'm going down to HaCo
With a chance of makin' it down to flocko
I'm with the Southside kids 'til they reach age
And then head for the Keys like spring break
Cause I believe that we intervene with our knees grey
And go and be changed, then we talk about it
I get it poppin', pop it, you probably got a problem
Before they can stop me, gotta cut my power like I'm Amish
Hold the torch up high in the thick dark
The dream works no matter how bad the pics are
Cause I see how bad the globe is
But they don't know how bad our hope is
They don't know how bad we want this
It ain't where we at boy it's where we're going!
[Hook:]
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win
I (I)
I believe (I believe)
I believe that (I believe that)
I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
They tell my young dudes that success is up to you
But that's hard when you got twelve years of wack schools
So it's rap or it's racks, either way you get them bars
When they give up we get charged
What's the system to our God?
We don't fight for the W
But we fight from the double you
Never said it wouldn't be trouble
But, but he bring trouble to whatever troubles you
As struggles do multiple valuable things that are wonderful
We suffer through, hustle through all the things he wants to humble you
Humble you, take you and break you and make you into another dude
Take away any other truth, he's the one that can comfort you
Aight!
Wait on it, tomorrow We Live!
He's makin' all things new!
Makin' all things new
Tell the paraplegic that he gon' dance
Tell breast cancer that she won't win
Tell racism that he gon' end
What he doesn't heal now, homie he gon' then
Let's go!
[Hook:]
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win
I (I)
I believe (I believe)
I believe that (I believe that)
I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
I believe that we will win, I believe that we will win
