[00:04.71]B.o.B - So Hard To Breathe
[00:08.79]Splendidyang
[00:12.72]
[00:36.12]Since day 1 I said f-ck the fame and everything it dealt
[00:38.73]But the fame is really here just to facilitate the wealth
[00:41.58]But the wealth attracts you haters like you mosquitoes to a well
[00:44.46]And the waters getting deeper so I'm well set out to sail
[00:47.57]Someone called my cell and left a voicemail
[00:50.19]That said congratulations on the million record sales
[00:53.01]As I'm flipping over furniture knocking sh-t off the shelf
[00:55.94]I told myself I'll never get too deep not to take a breathe
[00:58.70]But I'm sinking
[00:59.57]
[01:00.24]And it's so hard to breathe yeah
[01:05.38]And even more so to sleep when no one cares
[01:11.25]It was all I can eat
[01:15.12]But now I'm sinking
[01:17.27]So deep I can't come up for air
[01:22.03]
[01:34.72]Yeah I've seen the valley of the shadow of death
[01:37.88]I've seen the mountains the wild childhood
[01:40.35]Thats why I sing about it
[01:41.83]I just try to move on and keep my peace about it
[01:44.51]But Come to think about it I can't even count the days that I've spent starving tryna find some decent housing
[01:49.86]That's why I'm always smiling but on this beat I seem so violent
[01:52.55]So ask me 'bout the music scene and what the f-ck I think about it
[01:55.95]Time flies I guess thats why I'm bugging
[01:58.29]Just yesterday I was rapping with my brother and my cousin
[02:01.11]If you had the stove or toaster on you couldn't use the oven
[02:03.86]We knew that we were struggling we just acted like we wasn't
[02:06.83]It's either make it rapping if not that than hustlin'
[02:09.63]So all I see is magazine covers in this game
[02:12.32]You either surface or you plummet
[02:13.85]It's a thin line and I'm just tryna keep my head above it
[02:16.66]Damn...
[02:17.50]
[02:19.36]And it's so hard to breathe
[02:25.03]And even more so to sleep when no-one cares
[02:30.80]It was all I can eat
[02:34.71]But now I'm sinking so deep I can't come up for air
[02:41.76]
[02:43.33]Air I-I-I
[02:50.91]I sink away cause I sink away
[02:59.18]I sink away
[03:05.03]I sink away I sink away
[03:08.76]Get carried away get carried away
[03:14.98]
[03:16.15]And it's so hard to breathe
[03:21.76]And even more so to sleep when no-one cares
[03:27.66]It was all I can eat
[03:31.52]But now I'm sinking so deep
[03:35.16]
[03:38.24]Damn it's never in the plans but hey it's a long way than beating pots and pans (x3)
[04:00.40]But now I'm sinking so deep I can't come up for air ai
