"Breathe" lyrics

"Breathe"

Uprooted me, hung from the loop of the tree
Top of the world where I can see you
Lead in my hand punctured the skin
Poisoned the blood that was running within

Down, down on my knees
Where I will weep as my head topples down
At the hands of the cheap
Oh what to do?
Oh what to do?
Oh what to do?

Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe

Growin' up, throwin' up
You throttle us choking and smokin' us
Puff cough spit
The ash of the fed as you fled
We burned, you burned as you buried the dead

Oh what to do?
Oh what to do?
Oh what to do?
Oh what to do?

Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe

A purple heart once gave you eyes
At 17 we tripped the light
You saw the life, we danced the breeze
I remember you, don't forget about me
Don't forget about me
Don't forget to

Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe

Lead in the air as you drive around town
In the rain complaining you cant get around
Is the sky getting lower or are you getting higher
Your mind's getting smaller as time's ticking by

Breathe, breathe
What to do? What to do? Oh what to what to do?
Breathe
