I just want to breathe, need some time to breathe
Live my life so free, no one chasing me
I just want to breathe that's all I need to stay alive
Live my life so free, no one chasing me, I just want to breathe
It's funny I'm the rapper every rapper tryna beat now
Used to be that underground rapper with a big mouth
Can't see the range the aim is to never miss out
Keep my hands steady, keep my mind in a beach house
All I see is water in the mist of mixed signals
Teach a brother to fish nah me I'm trying to fish out
Like minds with my visual, it wouldn't kill to reach out
If I only have daughters, I pray they keep my initials
A-Q I got it for you, I got a budget for you
Couldn't get it here I went down south and brought it for you
Sacrificed for people that hurt me not like i Iove to toil
When the Lord anointed my brothers, was me that bought the oil
Your country never did nothing for you
Working this corrupted soil reward wrapped in paper foil
Don't let the paper spoil you
Painting you this picture my brother 'cause I was here before you
I just want to breathe, need some time to breathe
Live my life so free, no one chasing me
I just want to breathe, that's all I need to stay alive
Live my life so free, no one chasing me
I just want to breathe-eathe-eathe-eathe-eathe
I just want to breathe-eathe-eathe-eathe-eathe
Soon as you start getting money you attract the sharks
It's like everybody wants a part
I lived my whole life in the dark 'til found a spark
Now just speaking my heart is described as art
High fashion paid in full with body parts
Cost an arm and a leg, your market cap is cap
How you cut off your nose just to spite your face
Holy Moses, they still got you paying through your noses
Keeping the bone straight but there's a fracture within
You can't cover it with all the fashion you're in
You can't factor in the mad transactions I'm in
Those Instagram captions ain't capturing him
Enemies live forever vendettas since I was barely grown
Oh, my Lord save me protect me as I am heading home
Get the bread forever my name is already set in stone
But it was written I shall not live by bread alone (I just want to breathe)
Has to be more to life
Need some time to breathe
Live my life so free, no one chasing me
I just want to breathe-eathe-eathe-eathe-eathe
