Break Down Lyrics

Lend me a cheval and watch me dig up the surface

Let these feelings and emotions buried in me awaken

Been frustrated for so long I don't know where to start

No one to talk to but myself so the shit stay inside

Bottled up waiting to spill out on this paper

Been caught up with the world for so long I forgot they were in there

Been piling up for a while I can't take it no more

Ain't even sure if I know how to address them no more

Still ima try even though I'm not high

Or got an ounce of liquor inside me to keep me running off with the mouth

This ain't a song this is a sneak peek into my soul

Like "Catching Fire" man I let this shit burn

My only concern is can anybody relate

I'm zig zagging through life while the world keeps straight

I'm trying to learn how to appreciate the smaller things in life like

The nature of a flower as it grows and blooms

And brings more color to the world we live in

Cause everybody talking black and white like

They watching television shows in the early 50's

To much shit up on my plate so I sit and write

About whatever it don't really matter

Long as I get the shit out and it makes me feel better

Cause its the only therapy that I'll agree to

I'm looking at the world like the shit is see through

Before I break down I need to get some shit out

I won't cry so I gotta let the song cry

Can't overwhelm myself with emotions

Gotta keep moving with the motions

Before I break down I need to sort out my thoughts

They run deep so I gotta let the song bleed

Can't overwhelm myself so I let them fly

Before I drown too deep in them

Before I break down I need to get some shit out

I won't cry so I gotta let the song cry

Can't overwhelm myself with emotions

Gotta keep moving with the motions

Before I break down I need to sort out my thoughts

They run deep so I gotta let the song bleed

Can't overwhelm myself so I let them fly

Before I drown too deep in them

It's funny how when you are a kid you rush to get older

But when your older all you dream about is being a kid

The only worries that I had were are my boys coming out to play

Or writing up a list of who's invited to my birthday

And it's sad that little boy is gone

Never to be seen again look how I've grown

Look in the mirror all I see is a man who've adapted to a fucked up world

Ain't even got time to think about the shit that made me

Shit is crazy it done made me hasty

I used to be humbled now I'm addicted to a lifestyle

Where everybody's hostile

And all we think about is fucking money

So easily deceived we believe anything

Just put it in a book and tell em it's god's will

Power beats change any day of the year

You holla revolution with the same mindset that built this system

And as I sit and observer

Can't help but notice how depressing the shit had me before

Obsessing over the news wishing all politics would die

Stressing over who's a mason and who isn't

Like the shit could do me any better if I knew

My life was blurred like a foggy window after dew

But as I whipped it away I realized

That life is just perceptions on perspectives homie

Before I break down I need to get some shit out

I won't cry so I gotta let the song cry

Can't overwhelm myself with emotions

Gotta keep moving with the motions

Before I break down I need to sort out my thoughts

They run deep so I gotta let the song bleed

Can't overwhelm myself so I let them fly

Before I drown too deep in them

Before I break down I need to get some shit out

I won't cry so I gotta let the song cry

Can't overwhelm myself with emotions

Gotta keep moving with the motions

Before I break down I need to sort out my thoughts

They run deep so I gotta let the song bleed

Can't overwhelm myself so I let them fly

Before I drown too deep in them

Yo

Don't be waiting on a savior

You waiting for someone to free you

Free yourself free your mind

You waiting for someone to save you

Save yourself homie Ay
