Breathing Lyrics by A-1 (Rapper)

The Book of Adam

2011

Yeah, see I live my life like Tito and Germaine
The only reason anybody be knowing my name
It's 'cause I spent my whole life behind a mic
Now it look like my life 'bout to take flight
I'm boarding the plane
If you broke I'm knowing the pain
When I was hungry and showing the strain
I used to make a little money by throwing on trays
Singing my poems, holding my bag open
Hoping they throwing some change
But they rarely ever did
Before 10th grade, I was like every other kid
After that, even when I was minding my own biz
I still get profiled by every other bitch
But that's just the way it is
I ain't even mad at it
Rather talk back or fight back at it
Every day I see a new test like a lab rabbit
Have you ever learned
If you want to take a slice
Then you gotta take a stab at it
So I'm back at it, back like a bad habit
Telling bad rappers, don't rap
'cause you bad at it
I been down for so long, something gotta give
All I gotta do is stay positive
Half magnet
How I gotta live
How I gotta be
Empty out my brain on this beat
It's lobotomy
Every time I speak, it's insane, it's an odyssey
Explained the form of my slang, the philosophy
Four times in my life, niggas got at me
I was selling base, and a lot of tree
They was in my face , trying to commit arobbery
With bangers in my face
Thinking they hit the lottery
But I held my loot
They said they gonna bop at me
I said, go ahead and shoot
None of them niggas shot at me
Only broke myself, the first time
'cause I wasn't prepared
Admitted I was scared, the gun be all up in my hair
And I was (breathing) so hard, so fast
And that hurt a nigga pride, but the scars don't last
Now I'm (breathing) real easy, all bad bitch team
Raw hands on her cheek,and she be all
(breathing) real deep, 'cause she comes to skeet skeet
And me deep in her chocha
Like I'm supposed to be beating, and she say
That's just what she needed
I appreciate it boo
Oh it's dope, and and I need it, I see the great in you
You're over goals, I'm trying to appreciate the view
We all colors, I'm trying to appreciate the hues
You human being like me,I appreciate you too
'cause we from the same atoms that weaved
To make the DNA strands that made Adam and Eve
Who evolved from the very same plants and trees
Who produced enough air, so that Adam could breathe
I need to breathe, but if you talk to me radical
You could still get your shit tossed like a lateral
Work hard, just to go off on sabbaticals
These niggas too little, but I talk with the animals
Walk in the ocean, and sign with the ghost
In my own mind is where you gone find me the most
I'm just A dreaming, I just may see them
All come true, if I just stay, stay (breathing)
Stay (breathing oooh)
Man all I gotta do is just stay (breathing oooh)
If I just stay
If I just stay
If I just stay,]
