Help Me Breathe

[Verse 1: Terrance Richmond]
Toss and turning, man
These doubts and insecurities
Fueling stagnation
I been pacing for a peace of mind
Tryna stay clinging to vine but feelin' like I’m far behind
Time to take a leap and see what’s on the other side
Whole house asleep, back and forth through the hallway
Will I live, will I die?
Will I make it? Imma try
I keep seeking, I keep reaching
Will I ever see the feast?
Just proceed to move my feet
Be elite, I must compete
I’m feeling like I’m falling short (Short)
I’m smiling on my outer corpse (Corpse)
While tryna keep both feet up on this court (Court)
But lil' do they know
I’m holding on, yea, that Tarzan
Living through this dark tan
Feelin' kind of parched man (Ahh!)
I need to see the promise land
In my time
Now I’m older I hear what moms was sayin'
She wasn’t lyin'
I keep hearing Isaiah 60 playin'
"Now arise!"
Ezekiel 37, dry bones
Come alive!

I don’t wanna wait for it
But if it means one day I'm gonna be soarin'
I guess I’ll keep going
Reach for it
Seek for it
I hope I reap for it
Help me breathe, Lord
I don’t wanna wait for it
But if it means one day I'm gonna be soarin'
I guess I’ll keep going
Reach for it
Seek for it
I hope I reap for it
Help me breathe, Lord

[Verse 2: Terrance Richmond]
I see it clear as day (Day)
I need you here, I cannot front (Nah)
I lay my pride down
Hands to clouds (Straight up)
I will not get weary (Nah)
If you stand here wit me (Please!)
I tried a lot things (Yeah!)
But none of them can heal me (Err!)
PAC told us she didn't know what to throw away (Somebody help!)
Brenda had a baby and they look the other way
As I’m climbing up this latter
Wife like, "What’s the matter?"
"Talk to me! Talk to me!"
She want to chitter chatter (Ah!)
Babe, I swear would if I could, but wasn’t taught to
I was taught to put my head down
Provide, keep it all in
Men don’t cry!
Be tough, have a couple brews
Keep a side chick, yea, that pride, (Shh!) I’m so confused
Broken hearted blues records
Who’s checking on my sanity?
Nobodies caring, gone throw that boy a xanax
Take me to another planet
Or can Jesus start his landing?
Lord, help yo children keep on standing
Stand with us!
Stand with us!
Breakthrough!
Ram with us!
I know the battle's not mines
So Lord, let yo glory hit us (Ahh!)

[Bridge 1: Terrance Richmond]
Let yo fire fall on us
Keep us from them vultures
You gone march us out this forrest
We gone take it, take it, take it all the way
You gone take us, take us, take us all the way
Let yo fire fall on us
Keep us from them vultures
You gone march us out this forest
We gone take it, take it, take it all the way
You gone take us, take us, take us all the way

[Bridge 2: Scribe Music]
I know you calling me (Me)
But I've seen too much
It's been so long
Am I out of touch? (Touch)
Cause you're the only one who's chasing, I can't leave
Take it away, I can't breathe
You're the air in my lungs, I need peace
You drew the line in the sand with the nails in your hands
Woke my soul from it's sleep!

Help me breathe, Lord
Can you help me?
I need to breathe
Help me breathe, Lord
Help me breathe, Lord
Oh oh oh oh oh
