Kota the Friend - Breathe Lyrics

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Stay alert, kid
I say it in the mirror every day
And wipe the smudges off the surface and tell him that he perfect
With all his imperfections, I remind him that he worth it
Let the love in and stay for good, you deserve it
You been down and I know that you been searching
Betrayal ain't the word when you open up your soul
And they stab you in return, and I know that you been low
I'm a little bit concerned with the shame
Come to blame, come to rain, come to growth
With the growth come the pains, come the chains 'til you float
But damn, you the man, you is handsome and tan
You been all around the world, now it's sitting in your hands
They be looking for a fight, but that isn't in your plan
You are headed for that light, all that other shit a scam
Goddamn, boy, your hair so dark, it's amazing
Faces on glow, it don't even need shaving
Take a deep breath, homie, life is what you make it
All you have is now, so be present with creation
Breathe, eyes closed, give yourself a hug
Then breathe, run your fingers through your hair
Then you just breathe, body keep the score, be in tune
Just breathe, walking out the door knowing that you got peace
