Don't sleep and don't snooze I'm on the stage, no boo's never drinking, no booze one wife and no boo's big nif I don't lose, I am proof of a nasty pen game but all these drugs I don't do My sober mind is so divine, I don't need a major key every door is unlocked and all I see is open signs I'm never on the fence, I may sound arrogant but it's really God-fi-dence and I'm known in the continents so spread the word! spread THE WORD don't keep it in confidence and don't listen to these rappers who are speaking that non sense it ain't an actual fact if they say it with confidence because the truth is half of you all are really incompetent y'all ain't gonna pressure me (x4) I don't sit back, it's real life and I live that get money and give back I don't sell crack , I spit that a clever addict, don't go there like attic my success is such a habit a bad verse, I never had it that college prof that you can't outclass I'm that big boi that you can't outkast my fifteen of fame? I'll make my seconds last these other rappers are second, (or) last they should listen I lecture class I'm never last and shine when it's overcast it's always my season, God's favor over cash so I'm on His side, this rap is a homicide but you won't find me in a filthy pen a clean guy with a filthy pen y'all ain't gonna pressure me (x4)

Chorus (Repeat 6X) I just wanna Exhale Verse One: Let's Talk... We need some change but they - ain't stand behind me we scream the pains (has) been our lane since they found these roads and streets how many years have we defined these acts of aggression a means for them to find peace No discussion, no tasers or rubber bullets no justice they find their piece they spy on me and then they pull it it's all privilege - monkey is the image if life is like a game they treating ours like scrimmage with no referee they getting mad when we call it but - mad when we ballin' only happy when we crawlin' huh? That's why they take us down that's why the states is foul yeah they made us clown and they dont even fake a smile What you achieve in one step my people take a mile that's why we get so angry when justice takes a while delay the trial walkin' free don't make us proud I just wanna breathe man I say it loud Chorus (Repeat 6X) I just wanna Exhale Adlib: tell me if you understand me, if you understand me Verse Two: Let's Talk... Ain't no lies just truth people with potential (is) what them nines buss through and then, we shed tears until our cries go mute 'cuz all lives can't matter until mine does too Silly argument, y'all say it all the time Like for example, what about that black on black crime? if it's black on black crime then my people do the time if the white or blue did it - then the people get acquitted Quit it. We turned a hero from a victim George Floyd but y'all did it with George Zimmerman Listen, I just want a safe place to raise my child and though we've come a long way it's no time to take a bow it's time to think about Justice or Just us how you wanna play it out? We're more than entertainment now Yeah It's more than just a statement now I just wanna breathe man I say it loud Yeah Chorus (Repeat 6X) I just wanna Exhale Adlib: tell me if you understand me, if you understand me Bridge Only one way Only one way Love. Only one way Only one way Love. Don't judge us by the color of our skin (Just breathe, Just breathe) but by the content of our character yeah Treat us fairly Chorus (Repeat 6X) I just wanna Exhale Adlib: tell me if you understand me, if you understand me
