This song is about having someone believing in you. 

Someone who sees your inherent greatness and reminds you of it.

I don't know about you, but the people around me highly influence my sense of power.

I would not have moved to the south of Sweden to attend a horseback gymnasium if my father hadn't believed in me.

I wouldn't have started writing my songs and singing on stage if my friends hadn't believed in me.

I wouldn't have run a marathon on Svalbard if I wouldn't have had my ultramarathon friend Elisabeth believing in me and running it by my side.

Heck, maybe I wouldn't even have recorded these songs if my friend and vocal coach Malin had not said:

- This is what you do! This is what's your specialty! Go be you!

And making friends takes guts, as much as going for your dreams does.

To make friends, you'll need to dare expose yourself - to be seen by another person. 

And this can bring up all kind of discomfort.

But..

When it comes to stepping into who you are, achieving what you dream of - having a friend who gets you, and believes in you, is multiplying your chances of getting there.

I Got A Friend

“No dream is too big to aim for in the presence of your faith”

No matter what the news will tell me
No matter what the stats and numbers are saying about me
About people like me
I got a friend who believes in me
I got a friend who believes me
I got a friend who believes in me

You are the source of everlasting
You are the foundation for my powers, believe me
You are the friend who believes in me
You are the friend who believes in me
You are the friend who believes me
You are the friend who believes in me

When I lose my ground, I can remember your words
When I get all empty, it’s your certainty that I lean on
No pit is too deep to climb from
No joke is too hard to overcome
No dream is too big to aim for in the presence of your faith

You believe in me, belief in me
oooooh ooooooh

No matter where my steps will take me
No matter how strange my walk will look as I come along
I got a friend who believes me
I got a friend who believes in me
I got a friend who believes me
I got a friend who believes in me
