Just Breathe

See I've been there before many many times
I fought depression
And depression fought me several times
My mental health was a struggle
My balance was in trouble
To make it worse I was living in a bubble
Recovering from a breakup
And living in a hotel you can't make this up
I felt like I had no purpose
My heart lived on the surface
And it showed my pain
And I was feeling so worthless
Wherever I went
It felt like they were just laughing at me
Pointing their fingers at me
Judging me and crucifying me
But then I heard my granny say
All I gotta do is breathe

Everything will be alright
Everything will be ok
It's almost over
So just breathe
Everything will be alright
Everything will be ok
You've almost made it
So just breathe

I think I'm getting better day by day
Until covid hit me
And I couldn't find the words to say
Because I literally couldn't breathe
And all I could think about was her in my memory
I really wanted her here to hold my hand
And tell me baby I got you with you I will stand
But see my mental is fading
My health is on retreat
I don't know what to do
But I gotta get back to where I need to be
And I started to think about what my granny told me
Keep yourself grounded breathe in and out
Just keep holding on and change will come about

Everything will be alright (It'll be alright)
Everything will be ok (It'll be okay)
It's almost over (It's over)
So just breathe
Everything will be alright (It'll be alright)
Everything will be ok (It'll be okay)
You've almost made it (You've made it)
So just breathe

I can't stress it enough
To how important mental health is
To each and everyone of us
Depression is real
It's easy to conceal
I may be smiling on the outside
But inside I'm struggling for real
Be sure to check on your loved ones
Even when there's drama going on with someone
Cause It ain't that deep
So tell the person that you love them
Don't miss the opportunity
Cause you never know when their last day is
And you'll never know when their last breathe is
So go and tell them you love them
Hold em close lift them up
And tell them just breathe

Everything will be alright (It'll be alright)
Everything will be ok (It'll be okay)
It's almost over (It's over)
So just breathe
Everything will be alright (It'll be alright)
Everything will be ok (It'll be okay)
You've almost made it (You've made it)
So just breathe
Everything will be alright (It'll be alright)
Everything will be ok (It'll be okay)
It's almost over (It's over)
So just breathe
Everything will be alright (It'll be alright)
Everything will be ok (It'll be okay)
You've almost made it (You've made it)
So just breathe
