What Do I Believe?

I have a question that lurks in my mind every day.
I have a question that's very hard to say.
What do I believe?
I use to believe everything my parents said.
My own thoughts just use to be dead.
What do I believe?
I have a question that is very easy to ask...
but to answer is not a easy task.

What do I believe?
I use to believe everything my church believed to be true.
Those beliefs were nothing new.
What do i believe?
I have a question I'm trying to figure out.
I have a question that's full of doubt.

What do I believe?
I use to believe everything I was told.
Now it's time for me to be bold.
What do I believe?
I have a question I no longer have to fear.
I have a question,and the answer is finally here.

I know what I believe.
My beliefs are now my own.
It's something that I wished I'd known.
I've learned from what I'd been taught,
but now its time for what Ive got.
It's my turn to show them I've grown like a tree.
It's my turn to show others what I believe.Now....
What do you believe?
