BREATH Lyrics

Breathe

Breathe

Breathe

Breathe

Breathe

Breathe

Breathe

Breathe

No stock in our cupboards, food for thoughts I discovered

Pops forgot my mother; on the block he thought of others

But still thankful I got a lot of Sisters, a lot of Brothers

Nephews and Nieces, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins breathing

Our policing by cops thinking it might be guns

And they pop squeezin', another life lost that just begun

But now he's done, not breathin'

And they just give y'all a reason

Marriages be run with beaters and tons of over-eaters

That's turning into cheaters and either wouldn't mind taking a breather

And neither of the kids can truly understand it fully

Racism, the hate, scams and the bullies

Teaching doubting my amounting of what a Black Man could be

In my Skit I'll stand my ground, a Arizona and a hoodie

For the record we sick of giving Uncle Sam Goodies

Top of the world, exactly where all the fam should be

My Great Uncle had lung cancer on support machines beeping

His spirit I seen leaving, his daughter she screaming

"COME QUICK, COME QUICK CAUSE I DON'T THINK THAT HE'S BREATHING"

In the Same Hospital Delivery Room a mom's squeezin'

A Dad's palms easing out their first child bleeding

Both smile so proud unbelieving that he's wilding and breathing

Cause to our creator, our creations are so pleasing

I would spring clean the world if it was up to me

Change all the evils it'd become to be

Never would any of our young see

That my ancestors swung in the breeze

And I swear we need to breathe

Breathe, Breathe, Breathe

I would spring clean the world if it was up to me

Change all the evils it'd become to be

Never would any of our young see

That our ancestors swung in the breeze

And I swear we need to breathe

Breathe, Breathe, Breathe

Protestors Plotting and Pleading, trying to get unjust odds even

Even even even

Tear gas and mask just ask the Riot Squads why y'all seeing

Seeing seeing seeing

How fast ya start to gag and how fast ya stop breathing

Breathing Breathing Breathing

Through all the bad the masses still praying that we win

WHEN WHEN

Where are good cops to aware their partners when they make arrest

The last and only thing that Eric Garner ask was to take a breath

We all trying get to the top step by step

Olympic champs really race just to catch they breath

Pearl divers lurking working sacred depths

They swerving searching valuing most taking a breath

And they can bet elites using our ignorance just to benefit

Not knowing that we instruments of the Infinites images

Religion is how they captured ya in Africa

Profits over people for that Capita; they'll shackle ya

Look back at the surgeon's warning with all the answers

Tobacco making trillions serving y'all the cancers

Alcohol and opioids stimulate exotic dancers

Future dead beats sounding so great while they romance her

Don't own our own banks; a billion ganders at Black Panther

That's the exact reason that Stanfords don't accept Sanfords

The best banners, thinking we feeble planners

In this sequels slander, why must my people pander just for equal standards

Cause what's good for the Eagles, should be good for the Ganders

And I would Spring clean the world if it was up to me

Erase all the evils it'd become to be

Never should any of our young see

That our ancestors swung in the breeze

And I swear we need to breathe

Breathe Breathe Breathe

The world needs to Breathe

Breathe, Breathe, Breathe
