[B.o.B - Verse 1] Since day 1 I said fuck 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 shit off the shelf I told myself I’ll never get too deep not to take a breathe But I’m sinking
[Hook] And it’s so hard to breathe, yeah And even more so to sleep when no-one cares It was all I can 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 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 fuck 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!
[Hook] And it’s so hard to breathe (yeh-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
[Bridge] 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
[Hook]
[Outro] 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, airTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
