So Hard to Breathe (Explicit)

So Hard to Breathe (Explicit) - B.o.B

Splendidyang

Since day 1 I said f-ck the fame and everything it dealt

But the fame is really here just to facilitate the wealth

But the wealth attracts you haters like you mosquitoes to a well

And the waters getting deeper so I'm well set out to sail

Someone called my cell and left a voicemail

That said congratulations on the million record sales

As I'm flipping over furniture knocking sh-t off the shelf

I told myself I'll never get too deep not to take a breathe

But I'm sinking

And it's so hard to breathe yeah

And even more so to sleep when no one cares

It was all I can eat

But now I'm sinking

So deep I can't come up for air

Yeah I've seen the valley of the shadow of death

I've seen the mountains the wild childhood

Thats why I sing about it

I just try to move on and keep my peace about it

But Come to think about it I can't even count the days that I've spent starving tryna find some decent housing

That's why I'm always smiling but on this beat I seem so violent

So ask me 'bout the music scene and what the f-ck I think about it

Time flies I guess thats why I'm bugging

Just yesterday I was rapping with my brother and my cousin

If you had the stove or toaster on you couldn't use the oven

We knew that we were struggling we just acted like we wasn't

It's either make it rapping if not that than hustlin'

So all I see is magazine covers in this game

You either surface or you plummet

It's a thin line and I'm just tryna keep my head above it

Damn...

And it's so hard to breathe

And even more so to sleep when no-one cares

It was all I can eat

But now I'm sinking so deep I can't come up for air

Air I-I-I

I sink away cause I sink away

I sink away

I sink away I sink away

Get carried away get carried away

And it's so hard to breathe

And even more so to sleep when no-one cares

It was all I can eat

But now I'm sinking so deep

Damn it's never in the plans but hey it's a long way than beating pots and pans (x3)

But now I'm sinking so deep I can't come up for air ai
