lyrics

Break it
Break it down
Hold up
I’ma break it down
I’ma let you know
How it’s going down

I was losing faith
I was giving up
I was losing life
I was catching up
I had many falls
I was getting up
I was falling down
Picking myself up
Damn

Hold up
I’ma break it down
I’ma let you know
How it’s going down

I was working hard
I was getting work
I was in my feelings
Didn’t like my work
I had people lying
Tell me I was great
Talk behind my back
Smiling in my face
Momma had the key
Always kept me sane
Back against the ropes
Fighting for my name
Menace to myself
Feeling like I’m Kane
Cried so many tears
Pouring out like rain
Never been afraid
Of failure
Til today
Two sons
And they love me
Each day
Each day
Oh yeah

Break it
Break it down
Hold up
I’ma break it down
I’ma let you know
How it’s going down

Scared of being free
Scared of being me
Scared of being
Who i know
I’m posed to be
Scared of being
The lord has put
On me
Scared of taking chances
Scared of having loss
Loss so many
How the hell
Can I win at all
Scared of losing love
Scared of breaking off
From a Comfort zone
Hard to grow a part
When I left the part
Played another part
Niggas had to talk
Said I ain’t the part
Said I’m brand new
Finish what you start
Swore a nigga changing
Changing for the best
Guess it’s not enough
Guess this ain’t a trek
Guess this ain’t a journey
Guess I’m stuck
With less
Guess I’m holding on
To my momma’s death
To my sister’s death
Tell me please what’s next
PLEASE!

Tell me how to live
Guess you got it right
How to move along
How to make it right
How to raise my kids
How to love my wife
How to make to this bread
How to live your life
Nigga
Not my life though

Break it
Break it down
Hold up
I’ma break it down
I’ma let you know
How it’s going down

Sure life’s better
On the other side
Got some unfinished work
Over this side
If I get it
How I get it
Is it alright
Did the lord
Give the ok
And make it right
I got a loan
On my temple
Gotta treat it right
Gotta mind my own
Gotta get in line
Got niggas in my ear
Did I hear you right
Do it how the others do it
You’ll be alright
Been on my own
Being me being different right
Only difference
I don’t dare
It’s the truth right
Nigga
It’s the truth right?

Break it
Break it down
Hold up
I’ma break it down
I’ma let you know
How it’s going down
