A Reason to Breathe |
| I’ve been searching for a reason to live |
| And I don’t wanna take, I want a reason to give |
| There’s something deep inside of me that eats at my ribs |
| I wonder if I’ll live to see me and my kids |
| ‘cause the world’s in trouble, and it’s about to get a little worse |
| It all started when I jotted down my little verse |
| And that evolved into notebooks and notebooks of me |
| Trying to relate to the people that will feel my hurt |
| When I look into my soul I see the eyes of y’all |
| When you look into my soul, you see the eyes of God |
| So join me on this problem as I try to solve |
| And grow with me as you witness all I evolve |
| I’m living under the sun, and even when I’m rich I’ll be at one with the slums |
| The greatest never rush, they just run with the drums |
| And live their life to the fullest, man, it’s done when it’s done |
| People shouldn’t speak of what they don’t know |
| ‘cause everyone’s got something they don’t show |
| And I’ll be searching for a reason |
| A reason to live, a reason to breathe |
| ‘cause people shouldn’t speak of what they don’t know |
| ‘cause everyone’s got something they don’t show |
| And I’ll be searching for a reason |
| A reason to live, a reason to breathe |
| Playing on the wet ground, wrapped up in a death shroud |
| It’s gone, broken, I’m scared to let the breath out |
| Nasty pieces unsung, what is it I run from? |
| I check home to change clothes and bury loved ones |
| Text message saying «please call home» |
| Scared to pick up the phone, I’m afraid someone else is gone |
| I travel around the globe, they treat me like I’m holy |
| Not knowing I can’t save the folks closest to me |
| I cheat ‘em, I fent ‘em, I leave ‘em, I disappoint |
| I should be there for them, the road turns cold |
| Suicide runs through the new man side of my family |
| Pops master’s right, I knew it was not an accident |
| Young widow, two little guys he left behind |
| Same ages as mine, he was married four times |
| My parents in the ground, I’m the leader of my family |
| They’re all looking at me, but I don’t have the answers |
| I’m just knowing that I’m supposed to gain some understanding |
| Hollering to God to try to figure what the plan is |
| Long as I’m breathing like these, ‘til I cease and desist |
| Me and my kids got a reason to live |
| I’m just looking for a reason to wake |
| ‘cause every morning someone’s got a reason to flake |
| I’m driving off this cliff at a hundred miles an hour |
| And my only fear is I don’t have a reason to brake |
| I’m getting lonely, Lord. |
| This world is phoney Lord |
| And fuck a sony lord, i want my own accord |
| These niggers talking bout their bentleys |
| While they’re quoting Forbes |
| Almost like they forgot about niggers that still owning Fords |
| I keep a shooting to death, I can never be shallow, I’m perusing the depth |
| I’m using my music to improve on what’s left |
| It’s sort of like I’m moving mountains when I’m moving a cliff |
| I sing to find peace in the notes |
| Who knew the world would find a bit of peace with my quotes? |
| I’ve seen success before, it’s like I’m meeting a ghost |
| But what’s confusing is I guess I never seen it this close |
