Imagine Dragons – Believer (Lyrics)
“Believer” is a total banger with Dan Reynolds’ killer vocals and a sick beat that’s all about embracing pain and using it to grow. It’s Imagine Dragons‘ comeback after their break since 2016, and it’s also the title track for their documentary about LGBT youth and the Mormon church.
The song dropped on February 1st as the lead single for their third album, Evolve. You might have heard it in a Nintendo Switch commercial during Super Bowl LI or in the trailer for the Murder on the Orient Express remake.
And get this – during their 2019 National College Football Championship halftime show, they surprised everyone with a remix featuring Lil Wayne. How cool is that?

Imagine Dragons – Believer (Lyrics)
First things first
I’ma 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
[Verse 2]
Second things second
Don’t you tell me what you think that I could be
I’m the one at the sail
I’m the master of my sea, oh-ooh
The master of my sea, oh-ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
I was broken from a young age
Taking my sulkin’ to the masses
Writing my poems for the few
That look at me, took to me, shook at me, feelin’ me
Singing from heartache from the pain
Taking my message from the veins
Speaking my lesson from the brain
Seeing the beauty through the…
[Chorus]
Pain! You made me a, you made me a
Believer, believer
Pain! You break me down, you build me up
Believer, believer
Pain! Oh, 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
[Pre-Chorus]
I was chokin’ in the crowd
Building my rain up in the cloud
Falling like ashes to the ground
Hoping my feelings, they would drown
But they never did, ever lived, ebbin’ and flowin’
Inhibited, limited ’til it broke open and rained down
It rained down, like…
[Chorus]
Pain! You made me a, you made me a
Believer, believer
Pain! You break me down, you build me up
Believer, believer
Pain! Oh, 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
Last things last
By the grace of the fire and the flames
You’re the face of the future
The blood in my veins, oh-ooh
The blood in my veins, oh-ooh[Pre-Chorus]
But they never did, ever lived, ebbin’ and flowin’
Inhibited, limited ’til it broke open and rained down
It rained down, like…[Chorus]
Pain! You made me a, you made me a
Believer, believer
Pain! You break me down, you build me up
Believer, believer
Pain! Oh, 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
