Lyrics
Regular version= 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.

Second thing 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.

I was broken from a young age, Taking my sulking to the masses, Writing my poems for the few That look at me, took to me, shook to me, feeling me Singing from heartache from the pain, Taking my message from the veins, Speaking my lesson from the brain, Seeing the beauty through the...

(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.

I was choking 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, ebbing and flowing, Inhibited, limited 'til it broke open And rained down, You rained down, like...

(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.

But they never did, ever lived, ebbing and flowing, Inhibited, limited 'til it broke open And rained down, You rained down, like...

(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. This version has the same lyrics but the third verse and second pre-chorus were replaced by a whole verse by Lil Wayne. Imagine Dragons: 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.

Second thing 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.

I was broken from a young age, Taking my sulking to the masses, Writing my poems for the few That look at me, took to me, shook to me, feeling me Singing from heartache from the pain, Taking my message from the veins, Speaking my lesson from the brain, Seeing the beauty through the...

(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.

Lil Wayne: First things first, Can you imagine what's about to happen? It's Weezy the Dragon, I link with the Dragons, And we gon' get ratchet, no need for Imaginin', This is what's happenin'.

Second thing second, I reckon immaculate, Sound about accurate, I know that strength, it don't come without strategy, I know the sweet, it don't come without cavities, I know the passages come with some traffic, I start with from the basement, end up in the attic.

And third thing third, Whoever call me out, they simply can't count, Let's get mathematic, I'm up in this. Oh, is you a believer? I get a unicorn out of a zebra, I wear my uniform like a tuxedo, This dragon don't hold his breath, don't need no breather, Love you, Ms. Cita, the son of a leader. I know the bloomin' don't come without rain, I know the losin' don't come without shame, I know the beauty don't come without hurt.

Hol' up, hol' up, last thing last, I know that Tunechi don't come without Wayne, I know that losin' don't come without game, I know that glory don't come without, Don't come without...

Imagine Dragons: (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.

But they never did, ever lived, ebbing and flowing, Inhibited, limited 'til it broke open And rained down, You rained down, like...

(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.
