Iron Solomon - Breathe lyrics
rate meMy girl say I ain't home enough, or I be on the phone too much
Baby sister growin' up I ain't around to show her stuff
Progress slowin' up, sometimes the road is rough
Gas bill overdue, headed for the coldest months
Patience bein' tested, way too many questions
Thought I had the answers, maybe I was guessin'
Keep makin' the same mistake, never learn my lesson
I see the progression, seems that I'm regressin'
Tired of bein' wired, need an outlet for aggression
Tired of bein' tired, still stuck in this depression
Feel like I'm destined to be in this profession
Family thin I'm crazy, 'cause of my complexion
Chorus (Iron Solomon & Isaiah):
Breath, take time to reflect,
When I'm stressed and my mind is a wreck
I need a moment to Breath, try to unwind for a sec'
'Cause I can feel it in my spine and my neck
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
Verse 2 (Iron Solomon):
Now a hand full of new Jacks dealt into the game
Wanna pull the king's card, so they mentionin' my name
Tryina up the ante 'cause they're jealous of the fame
But they know I'm at a level that they never could attain
So now they try to undermine everything I've gained
New flavor every week, but the recipe's the same
It's the pressures of the game, I'm weathering the rain
To get to the sunshine, no pleasure without pain
But still, I can't believe its my name you clowns sayin'
The trail I blazed in the lane you now race in
But I paved the ground and laid the foundation
You can't take my crown, just pray for salvation
But I ain't hatin', no I been supportive
So I ain't even mad at 'em, I'm just disappointed
But I can't lose my mind and react off of foolish pride
Move in stride, let 'em throw stones 'til I'm crucified
Chorus (Iron Solomon & Isaiah):
Breath, take time to reflect,
When I'm stressed and my mind is a wreck
I need a moment to Breath, try to unwind for a sec'
'Cause I can feel it in my spine and my neck
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
Verse 3 (Iron Solomon):
I choke and wheeze, smokin' trees like the cure for my own disease
The only way I know to keep my soul at ease
I been searching for a slow release from the dose of grief
That always seems to undermine the goals I've reached
I don't know if I should give up and go to sleep
Or keep breaking day, stay awake to follow hopeless dreams
But I'm feeling like I'm kneeling on broken knees
Chasing dreams like Jason with the Golden Fleece
'Cause when I find it I'm a hold a feast
Invite all the beasts, so each one of us could try to hold a peace
Peace, 'cause we could fight for it forever
But we'll all probably prosper if we fight for it together
The triflin' for cheddar is stiflin' the pleasure
The merit of my music a miser couldn't measure
A true sinner's conscience is lighter than a feather
Try to keep this all in mind when I'm sizing up the treasure
And I breathe
Chorus (Iron Solomon & Isaiah):
Breath, take time to reflect,
When I'm stressed and my mind is a wreck
I need a moment to Breath, try to unwind for a sec'
'Cause I can feel it in my spine and my neck
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
I need a moment to breath (Breathe!)
