Breathe

Can I breathe? Can I live?
Can I grieve? Get a min'?
Can I breathe? Can I live?
Can I grieve? Get a minute?

Ooh, I thought I was that nigga, this is rebirth, baptized
Water almost drowned me
They don't know how I came with a new mindset
Trials, tribulations, that is what shaped me

Don't make an ass of yourself, just be without assumptions
We can be above service, skip to the meat, ask questions
I ain't got no book for you to read, film for you to see
Way beneath the scars, I got more heart than you believe

Can I breathe? (Breathe) can I live? (Live)
Can I grieve? (Grieve) get a minute? (Min')
Can I breathe? (Breathe) can I live? (Live)
Can I grieve? (Grieve) get a minute? (Min')

I just can't stop, the world won't stop
I just can't stop, it's just a plot

Last night, that news shook me to my core, mind you
Last week, it was all cool, now I'm thinking how to save you
My mind's so full, singing, keeping it soulful
Thinking it's the way I process all these questions, got you listening

Don't make an ass of yourself, just be without assumptions
We can be above service, skip to the meat, ask questions
I ain't got no book for you to read, film for you to see
Way beneath the scars, I got more heart than you believe

Can I breathe? (Breathe) can I live? (Live)
Can I grieve? (Grieve) get a minute? (Min')
Can I breathe? (Breathe) can I live? (Live)
Can I grieve? (Grieve) get a minute?

I just can't stop, the world won't stop
I just can't stop, it's just a plot

Breathe
Breathe (yeah)

Can I breathe? (Breathe) can I live? (Live)
Can I grieve? (Grieve) get a minute? (Min')
Can I breathe? (Breathe) can I live? (Live)
Can I grieve? (Grieve) get a minute?

I just can't stop, the world won't stop
I just can't stop, it's just a plot
