"Because You Believed"
Written & composed by Yves Stilmant ©2025

[Verse 1]
I've stumbled more times than I've stood
Got lost in the dark when I thought I was good
Held dreams that were barely alive
But I kept them breathing to keep us alive

[Verse 1B]
There were nights I was too tired to try
But your voices pulled me back every time
You never saw the weight I hid
But you gave me strength when I had none to give

[Pre-Chorus]
Every fall was softened by your light
And somehow, you made wrong feel right

[Chorus]
Because you believed, I kept holding on
Even when all of my hope was gone
You gave me a reason to rise again
To fight for love, to stand, to mend
You're the fire that never ceased
And I'm here today... because you believed

[Verse 2]
I wanted to give you the world
But I gave you my heart, my songs, my word
And maybe that's more than gold
When love is the legacy we hold

[Verse 2B]
Now I wake up with peace in my chest
Knowing somehow we passed every test
I owe this life I'm living now
To the way you loved me through my doubt

[Pre-Chorus]
All I lost came back through your grace
I found my strength in your embrace

[Chorus]
Because you believed, I kept holding on
Even when all of my hope was gone
You gave me a reason to rise again
To fight for love, to stand, to mend
You're the fire that never ceased
And I'm here today... because you believed

[Bridge]
And if the road grows heavy again
I'll remember where I've been
I'll look at you and know it's true
There's nothing I can't walk through

[Final Chorus]
Because you believed, I became a man
Built a life with these two hands
You gave me a reason to rise again
To fight for love, to stand, to mend
You're the fire that never ceased
And I'm still here... because you believed
