Hard To Breathe

[Chorus Muffled]
Don't know who to trust, aye
Don't know why I'm losin' you
Got no one to love, aye
Been dyin' for somethin' new
Hard to breathe
It's hard to breathe, baby
My past is just hauntin' me
It's hauntin' me lately
Don't know who to trust

[Verse 1]
Lately I been drownin' in my own thoughts
Lately I been feelin down, so lost
Lately I been tryin to find happiness with somebody that treat me like I'm dirt, like I have no cost
Like I ain't worth nothin'
Like I ain't someone special
I been battlin' my demons, brawlin' with my devils
A part of me just wants to fall in love, go and settle
The other part of me wants to take this to whole new levels
I'm tryin' to inspire the kids, help my family out
I'm tryin' to be somebody that they give a damn about
I'm tryin' to be a better person but I'm sad and down
I'm drinkin' liquor 'til I'm stumblin' and blackin' out
Love is pain, such a shame. Sorry to my ex girl
Hopefully I get my shit together for my next girl
Shorty on my line, I don't want you for the sex, girl
I need someone to bring some life into my dead world

[Chorus]
Don't know who to trust, aye
Don't know why I'm losin' you
Got no one to love, aye
Been dyin' for somethin' new
Hard to breathe (Breathe)
It's hard to breathe, baby
My past is just hauntin' me (Me)
It's hauntin' me lately
Don't know who to trust, aye
Don't know why I'm losin' you
Got no one to love, aye
Been dyin' for somethin' new
Yeah, it's gettin' hard to breathe (Breathe)
It's hard to breathe, baby
My past is just hauntin' me (Me)
It's hauntin' me lately, don't know what to do

[Verse 2]
Why the fuck you only call me when you drinkin'? Aye
Why the fuck we only hangin' on the weekends? Aye
Why the fuck you gettin' mad, say I'm creepin', when you out here Wild 'n Out like Nick Cannon? I can't believe it, yeah
I think I have a tendency to push good people out my life
Let the ones that's bad for me stay in and yeah, that shit's not right
That's just somethin' I gotta work on man, I'm a work in progress
Another thing, I'm done with flexin', I'ma keep it honest
I'm through with gettin' on the record, talkin' all that shit
Exaggeratin' quite a bit
I'm the farthest thing from rich
And when I'm in the club, I'm not the person tryin' to steal your bitch
I'm the person tryin' to numb the pain that this business gives
Yeah, I'm just a man, I am far from perfect
I'm tryin' to give my mom the world, 'cause she so deserves it
I'm out here tryin' to teach the kids that they all have a purpose
It's always deeper underneath the surface, aye

[Chorus]
Don't know who to trust, aye
Don't know why I'm losin' you
Got no one to love, aye
Been dyin' for somethin' new
Hard to breathe (Breathe)
It's hard to breathe, baby
My past is just hauntin' me (Me)
It's hauntin' me lately
Don't know who to trust, aye
Don't know why I'm losin' you
Got no one to love, aye
Been dyin' for somethin' new
Yeah, it's gettin' hard to breathe (Breathe)
It's hard to breathe, baby
My past is just hauntin' me (Me)
It's hauntin' me lately, don't know what to do

[Chorus Muffled]
Don't know who to trust, aye
Don't know why I'm losin' you
Got no one to love, aye
Been dyin' for somethin' new
Hard to breathe
It's hard to breathe, baby
My past is just hauntin' me
It's hauntin' me lately
Don't know who to trust, aye
Don't know why I'm losin' you
Got no one to love, aye
Been dyin' for somethin' new
Yeah, it's gettin' hard to breathe
It's hard to breathe, baby
My past is just hauntin' me
It's hauntin' me lately, don't know what to do
