Breath in

Intro – Spoken]

Yeah…

Sometimes the weight’s just too much…

But I still breathe. Barely.

⸻

Woke up, pain in my chest, same fight, no rest

Smile on my face, but I’m not feelin’ blessed

I been walkin’ through hell in these size 13 shoes

Hidin’ bruises in my soul, yeah, nothin’ to lose

Every call goin’ straight to ignore

Ain’t nobody checkin’ in, on me no more

Used to pray for light, now I’m cool with the dark

Heartbeats slow like it’s fallin’ apart

I’m tired of cryin’ in the dead of the night

Tired of pretendin’ like I’m winnin’ this fight

I gave it my all, now I’m barely holdin’ on

I’m still here… but I’m almost gone

⸻

I don’t need a “you got this,” save the clichés

I been fighting suicidal thoughts for three days

Voices in my head sayin’ “you ain’t enough”

World so cold, and the love’s just bluff

I been reachin’ for a hand, but they all let go

Now I’m bleedin’ through a beat just to cope with the low

Got a mask for the world and a tear for the mic

This pain ain’t new — it’s just louder tonight

I’m tired of cryin’ in the dead of the night

Tired of pretendin’ like I’m winnin’ this fight

I gave it my all, now I’m barely holdin’ on

I’m still here… but I’m almost gone

⸻

Maybe if I fade, they’ll notice me then

Maybe they’ll care when I’m gone with the wind

But a voice in the silence whispers, “keep goin’…”

But broken hearts ’hold the tears of the words that are unspoken

⸻

I’m tired of cryin’ in the dead of the night

Tired of pretendin’ like I’m winnin’ this fight

But I spit these bars just to stay alive

Still breathin’… still tryin’ to survive
