Exhale

Lyrics

Hey Yeah Nat King Yeah Just let it ride man Yo I been feeling my lowest, and though I write like a poet My heart's becoming more stoic, stowing my love and emotions My anger's getting too potent, I focus hard on what's broken Wishing that I was more open, but severin' ties is me copin' Becoming passive with my passion in life Afraid of fading into darkness but I'm fighting the light Waking up every morning hoping my choices are right 'Cause everytime shit went left, left me wonderin' why Frustrated, there were nights I contemplated suicide I hesitated, 'cause if I waited, then maybe I'll be fine Still I debated and as of lately I'm feelin' alright That overstatement is blatant, another bold face lie Uh Just need a moment to breathe I been suffocating reaching for a moment of reprieve Yeah Just need a moment to breathe I been working through the pain searching for my inner peace Uh Just need a moment to breathe Locked inside my own thoughts got me wanting to leave Yo Just need a moment to breathe Letting go of all the hate, in this breath I release My momma praying that I find what I need But that pressure to be better got me feelin' so bleak 'Cause expectations you created gotchu tryna shield me And every mistep I take, got me feeling so guilty Poppin' in and out of reality, my mentality Of simply not caring becomes more of a fallacy Growing up and looking back, those days becoming fantasies Just thinkin' back to a time where I lived happily I struggle with letting go, I keep those galleries So I can look back on brighter days whenever I'm feelin' low I document my lowest days so I can see how I've grown And nowadays I'm too ashamed to say don't leave me alone Uh Scary thoughts on the daily, but really why would I share? Cause youd just say that I'm crazy, but I feel like I'm impaired Stepping over my problems, but frankly you never cared So maybe now that I'm gone you'll say you tried to be there Just need a moment to breathe I been suffocating reaching for a moment of reprieve Yeah Just need a moment to breathe I been working through the pain searching for my inner peace Uh Just need a moment to breathe Locked inside my own thoughts got me wanting to leave Yo Just need a moment to breathe Letting go of all the hate, in this breath I release Okay, I'm good (Breathe, nigga breathe)
