Breath

Andrew Downard

What up, homey
How's that cigarette taste
Probably a whole pack of escape that's craved
At first those fights didn't matter
But the fracture
Became worse when the family got shattered
Always try to be the perfect show-room son
But the mask has a time limit for everyone
So take yours off, let the pain show through
It's not your fault that the elders got named tattoos
The anger builds up in the core
Like I don't have the right example to follow anymore
To think, and to fend for yourself
Is difficult to take on
Best to learn early, before your best days are gone
Keep the soul intact, watch for bear traps
Don't forget to pay attention to where you're going on your map
The surroundings can be clouding
Now consume the music, and let it influence

Have to keep moving step by step
It's the only way yourself can get ahead
Keep pushing your heart every time it beats
There's a reason why we still breathe
Have to keep moving step by step
It's the only way yourself can get ahead
Keep pushing your heart every time it beats
There's a reason why we still breathe

Examining through this box of pictures
Another way to say that I'm a crate-digger
Seeing the smiles on their face, good memories replace
The fact it's the only way I can see them today
Childhood memories are not that all strong
I guess I remember more of the pain and the wrong
Soft-spoken, couldn't believe the implosion
Figured out from the start, my family was broken
I wanted to run away from the problems
Impairing the mind, was my way to solve them
I dated the devil
I'm an adrenaline kennel
I climbed the abyss, I'm still alive
Ain't nothing to fuck with
In search of love and the norm, in any kind of form
To keep my soul dry from the storms
Treasure chest filled with the keys of free
Consumed the music, and found me

Picking up the toys your boy got out
To teach little man to put them back makes you proud
Doing alright with getting him smarter, with a good posture
Taking in this picture, he doesn't have a father
Working from sunrise till the mental snaps
The pay is a joke, the fucks don't know the half
Leaving barely a tip
Knowing damn well you gave them the best service you can give
With this life you live
Never feels like you're taking care of your own
Never feels like you're getting out of your parents home
Pay check is spent, as soon as you get it
Gritting your teeth, because you have to admit it
You have to quit this shit job or find another
It's hard to debate life and your birth-rite to be a mother
Just hold onto the light in your son's eyes
Embrace the movement, and spread your wings to fly
