Little R.O.C. 9 – #icantbreathe lyrics

Verse

I been hustling all my life
Everything that I do is for my kids and my wife
Been through the pain and the heartbreak
I seen enough to my heart quake
I know my health ain’t all good
And I’m so misunderstood
So I’m knocking on the wood
Living way different than my doctor said I should
If I could I really would
The city life is really stressing me
New York is trying to get the best of me
I lay my head down at night to sleep
And I can’t breathe

Chorus

And I can’t breathe
You making my heart weak
You got a hold on me
And it’s hard for me to leave
And I can’t breathe
You making my heart weak
You got a hold on me
And it’s hard for me to leave

Verse 2
On the block selling loose leaf cigarettes
Working hard on my job hard as it gets
Mr. Officer what I’m doing wrong?
Every day it seem like the same old song
You harass me and talk about locking me up
This the last straw I think I done heard it enough
All I did was try to stop a fight
In return you wanna stop my life
You place my neck inside I chokehold
You got my body feeling so cold
You force my face into the concrete
And I can’t breathe

Chorus

And I can’t breathe
You making my heart weak
You got a hold on me
And it’s hard for me to leave
And I can’t breathe
You making my heart weak
You got a hold on me
And it’s hard for me to leave

Bridge
Yeah
Yeah
Somebody help me, help me
Some body help me, help me
Cause I’m trying to change
Unlock the chains
Yeah
Yeah
Somebody help me, help me
Some body help me, help me
Cause I’m trying to change
Unlock the chains

Chorus

I can’t breathe
You making my heart weak
You got a hold on me
And it’s hard for me to leave
I can’t breathe
You making my heart weak
You got a hold on me
And it’s hard for me to leave
