Fraser T Smith - Breathe lyrics

[Verse 1] All I do is run, and run I grew up in a world where the kids with a mother and dad looked up to the mandem with guns And the fact that it's normal is nuts Man are living for lyrics and party songs, community thinks that we're poison We made girls hold guns like Lara Croft And I know what you're thinking to say, but you ain't never felt half of the tension In a sentence it's harder to mention, so I write lines like Bart in detention And jealousy is what made enemies, but generally starts with your bredrins Man are tryna tell the yutes about choice, same guys that we had no part in electing Man jump off road they wanna judge man, same man say 'free my Gs' Can't ever tell my young boys trap I ain't cool with the gas like P-Y-G So God take the wheel I can't function, and God give me sight I can't see God lift this weight I feel pressure, and God give me strength I can't breathe [Hook] Can I breathe With all this weight on my chest can I breathe With all this hate on my head can I breathe I'm still lost on my way to success can I breathe Can I breathe Can I breathe With all this weight on my chest can I breathe With all this hate on my head can I breathe I believe in this person you ask me to be But I told you I'm blind and I'm weak on my knees I'll lead if you set me free give me vision to see [Verse 2] All you do is talk, and talk About a life that you never did live and a road that you never could walk All you do is talk and judge f** your plan have you ever put a corpse in mud Covered in black like the angel of d**h came and kissed my neck You talk, about a script that you never could write and a life that you never could sort f** your plan, all you do is talk and judge but you don't know circumstance South London's like the Garden of Eden and that House of Commons' where the serpents dance I stayed in contact with god, even though my mind led astray I was fighting through Way before Deliveroo came on ends we had green on wheels that's a bike with food Everyone would ask 'Dave had you grown up fast can you tell me what you wanna be?' I know my fate But ever since late I been tired on the way, struggling to breathe, and obstacles came My path got covered in flames Risk had me cutting from jakes, slipping like I'm running in rain [Hook] So can I breathe With all this weight on my chest can I breathe With all this hate on my head can I breathe I'm still lost on my way to success can I breathe Can I breathe Can I breathe With all this weight on my chest can I breathe With all this hate on my head can I breathe I believe in this person you ask me to be But I told you I'm blind and I'm weak on my knees I'll lead if you set me free give me vision to see
