Breathe Again

[Intro]

They gon' be sampling us in years to come, I'm telling you

When the world lands on you, you do push ups

It's nothing else

There was a time when all was well

All was fine but time reveals

Around the time my own road was built

It wasn't long before that train derailed

What do we promise then, what do we promise then?

When will our peace of mind begin again?

You'll find yourself saying this within

Before we begin, just breathe again

[Verse 1]

Hat back, matte black

Band of Brothers rat pack

Fear none, I'm near none, since year one I'm Jack Black

Fuck credit where credit is due, it's true that you could max that

Up until the day my money is straight I won't relax

Back-track back, homie, you don't smell me, you can Axe that

Running through that schoolyard, hammers in my knapsack

Fact, that'll make 'em send that paper in a hurry like they faxed that

Just in case you wonder what attracts that

Luck, hope they rub it hungry children, empty stomach, miss the spendin'

Pendin', we can't afford it, that's the budget from the bottom at the bottom of the bottom of the basement

I'm from where's ever that place went

I wasn't the perfect example of a classmate

So sometime in '07 was my last day

I said fuck school, I'm going to class late

I'm going balls out, they're tryna castrate

You're fishin' for the truth, no need to cast bait

I give it to you, you run with it like a fast break

I studied [?] what do you do when you see the markets thin?

Well you should park a tin

I was a model then, then I was model-thin

Was closer to the top, more than a bottle rim

But then I gotta whim, like hey you gotta win

You gotta branch out, you got a lot of limb

[Chorus]

Feels like I'm running through this fire blind

Tired but I'm running out of time

Let it all out, you let it all in

You work it all out, you never call in

Ya let it all out, you let it all in

Remember all this if you ever fall in

You gotta breathe again

[Verse 2]

Never been afraid to fall, so I've never been afraid of fights

And I learned that I had to walk tall, so I never been afraid of heights

Insane, I ain't saying that I'm saying I've been a tough tough guy all my life

What a shame what I'm saying when the pain never came, never tried to change my flights

Whether it's just me, on the tarmac

Or riding, with the car packed

Before you diss me, get the history

I ride year, get the Carfax

I space out like Star Trek because that's just my way to deal

With my story just ain't adding up, that arithmetic ain't real

So this is what this is, airtight, no hisses

Diss tracks, no mishaps, just wish raps, no misses

Contrast, blue poles, hunger, no soup bowls

Ain't street but it ain't sweet on the same beat, no glucose

[Chorus]

Feels like I'm running through this fire blind

Tired but I'm running out of time

Let it all out, you let it all in

Work it all out, you never call in

Let it all out, you let it all in

Remember all this if you ever fall in

You gotta breathe again
