The Grouch - Breath lyrics

rate me

Well you can make any day the greatest day

Just visualize peace when you play this

I'm not saying my whole life's a meditative state

But I was calm cool collect when I lay this

Call me the grouch

But I don't get upset

Kick a verse through the speaker, get my guda then jet

Back to my fam

I live the life of a man

Two cars, two dogs, a wife and a plan

I told you I was making sense

All else will make you crazy like following trends

But keeping up with the neighbors won't save you

I'm deep enough to know myself, now that's major

And I'm proud of me

No male figure to teach me how to be, oh well

Too weak to reach outerly

I shoulda known, If all was good at home, I wouldn't have grown

I put it in poem to show 'em a better way

Something abstract and clever, not led astray

Break bread, make good, await

And we takin' this hip-hop back to self-creation

Meaning I can say whatever I want

And I don't gotta act a certain way to make a chunk

Ain't a chunk just because it's not the same as before

Temptation lures, but my aim is pure

It used to be stress, now it is breath

It used to be broke, now it's invest

It used to be faded, and now it's controlled

It used to be underground, now it's known

It used to be young, and now It's classic

It's still good music, and it still is magic

I still am feeling true to myself, my family, my friends, my everyone else

And now I'm smarter

I put a filter on my water, and I bless my home cus I'm raisin' a daughter

Can't be a porn addict no more, that's smaller than who I'm supposed to be

Hoes, please don't holler {hey Grouch}

I can hear the call of the wild:

Another man down, swallowed by the mob of the crowd

But I hold my ground, speak loud, tell 'em:

Simple is the new cool, young fool

Sober is the new drunk

Pregnant's new skinny

How long you gonna fuck the world and ride on enemies?

Supply amenities, I use em

I don't rely on crutches though, plus it's oozin' out the pores of my skin

Pure truth, and when combined with the beat, you feel the music

Literally healing movement

Watch the expressions change from blank to student

And all the people say "don't stop doin' it"

So I won't be one to badly influence them again

Just feel my soul is ink from the pen

I think, fill a hole for every now and then

It used to be stress, now it is breath

It used to be broke, now it's invest

It used to be faded, and now it's controlled

It used to be underground, now it's known

It used to be young, and now It's classic

It's still good music, and it still is magic

I still am feeling true to myself, my family, my friends, my everyone else
