Breathe

April 22nd my lil nephew had came alive
April 22nd I barely wanted to be alive
April 22nd I felt like something was finna die
But maybe in that second the pressure was getting high
Maybe the smoke arrived from celebrating with all my people
Over issues that made us closer but never equal
This ain't a regal but movies describe our fits
Conscious of how I pick, but know that life is a shuffle of cards
Still I trust in my hand
Even if I gotta let go of my closest of friends
Not intentional but the reason is clear in the end
Let the universe keep me balanced to run it again
Feel like I been closer but distant to everyone kin
Feel like if I ever went missing would they even care?
Am I doing too much and bitching or making it clear?
How could my life be filled with intention but missing some air?

Breathe
Breathe

I live for glory, I live for commas, I live for god
I live for pussy, I live for power, I live to die
Was barely 20 when I decided to live for mine
Some of us can't find it just live for others to pass along
Used to think I had to find it on my own
Left my people for some purpose
Learning answers I had known
Bout living from check to check
Fighting to gain respect
Bout evils around the world that Lucy prays we commit
This time feels like the best my moments feeling like time
Pressure is getting thick, the mirror keeps me alive
Effort went from a pick, to movie I can't decline
My story is too legit, this talent is too divine
Hoping you don't forget
Hoping you never fade away
Like all the bitches that showed me we'll never feel the same
And all the niggas that hated the person I became
That's why I feel like I'm chosen no matter what they say

Breathe
