Kyle - So Hard To Breathe lyrics

[Verse 1] Since day one I said f** the fame and everything it dealt But the fame is really here just to facilitate the wealth But the wealth attracts you haters like mosquitos to a well And the waters getting deeper so I must set out to sail Someone called my cell, and left a voicemail They said congratulations on the million record sales As I'm flippin over furniture, knockin' sh** off the shelf I told myself I'd never get to deep to take a breath but I'm sinkin [Hook] And it's so hard to breathe, yeah And even more so to sleep when no one cares It was all I could need But now I'm sinking, so deep, I can't come up for air [Verse 2] Yeah, I've seen the valley of the shadow of d**h I've seen the mountains, a wild childhood That's 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 spent starvin' tryin' to find a some decent housing It's why I'm always smiling but on this beat I seem so violent So ask me about the music scene and what the f** I think about it Time flies I guess that's why I'm buggin Just yesterday I was rappin 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 actin like we wasn't It was either make it rapping, if not that then hustling 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 tryin to keep my head above it, damn [Hook] Air I (I sink away) Air (I sink away) Air (As I sink away) I (Damn I sink away) Damn air damn pots and pans Get carried away damn get carried away it Was never in the plans But hey, it's long way from beatin' pots and pans [Hook] Damn it was never in the plans But hey, it's a long way from beatin' pots and pans But now I'm sinking so deep I can't come up for air, air, ah
