Hard To Breathe ft. Pro Lyrical

from Jen's Mixtape Vol. 1 by Jen Msumba

lyrics

Gotta feeling when I run away
It's hard to breathe in the city
And everywhere I turn it's a mistake
Breathing in this smoke makes me tipsy
I just want to go where I'm OK
Blue skies hover over my day
Gotta feeling when I run away
It's hard to breathe in the city

Pro- It's hard to breathe plus the smog make it hard to see
Hard to be, who we born to be plus we ought to be
Free to be who we be on the inside
Outside's telling us to let our inner kid die
Not me I see the world kind of opposite
We need a lot kinder; kind a lot are finding hardships
Lots give, but lots more are trying taking it
I need my sanity my inner sanctum's sacred

I just wanna go where I'm OK
blue skies hover over my day,
got a feeling when I run away
it's hard to breathe in the city"

That's why I am taking it to places where the sound of it
Feels right, instead of fakers sounding counterfeit
So turn it down a bit, not talking bout the volume though
Just talking bout the volume of your garbage that I'm watching grow
Let it go, take it in and just breathe again,
As me and Jen just try and make it green again
Clean again, organize, maybe clean our heads
And bump this song anytime that you need a friend

Gotta feeling when I run away
It's hard to breathe in the city
And everywhere I turn it's a mistake
Breathing in this smoke makes me tipsy
I just want to go where I'm OK
Blue skies hover over my day
Gotta feeling when I run away
It's hard to breathe in the city

I keep it simple my perspective's keep it positive
So lean on me baby maybe I can be your oxygen
Lots to give once we focus on the consequence
Instead of urging us to action lacking lots of sense
Its obvious once we see it in the retrospect
You gots to give if you want to learn to get respect
So grow organic there wont be no bull
And let it breathe like cotton and Merino wool

Gotta feeling when I run away
It's hard to breathe in the city
And everywhere I turn it's a mistake
Breathing in this smoke makes me tipsy
I just want to go where I'm OK
Blue skies hover over my day
Gotta feeling when I run away
It's hard to breathe in the city
