Michael Scotto - Believe 2025

A 2025 musical reimagining of an original Nothing But Sky and Sola Fide track with slightly altered lyrics. Very similar to the original with a modern rock flare. Inspired by the Monkees "For Pete Sake," with a decidedly different political POV.

Long hair, short fuse.
Waiting for a six-string dropout to give you the news
Platitudes and no clue
There’s not a damn thing progressive about what you call your views

You’re waiting for a wind
2000 years or more
Now it’s time you see
That all we’ve got to do is believe

Happy guys with sad souls.
Nature’s got a funny way of taking back control
Tradition and fidelity.
You love to hate them both in the name of sensitivity

You’re waiting for a wind
2000 years or more.
Now it’s time you see
That all we’ve got to do is believe

Turtlenecks and politics
Anarchy with leaders fashion statements and guitar licks
Blue sky and mother Earth
You pray to dirt just to avoid rebirth

You’re waiting for a wind
2000 years or more.
Now it’s time you see
That all we’ve got to do is believe

Oh believe
Yes believe
Yes believe
Yes believe

You’re waiting for the wind
You’re waiting for the wind
You’re waiting for the wind
You’re waiting for the wind

For Pete’s sake!
