Breathe
Finding Breath Amidst Trials: A Song of Faith & Transformation
Lyrics
I want to wake up
Expressing the desire to wake up.
See where I'm going, yeah
Expressing the desire to have clarity about the future.
Chase what I'm dreaming
Expressing the desire to pursue and achieve dreams.
Run away till I out run all my pain
Expressing the desire to escape from and overcome pain.
I swear I pray everyday
Acknowledging the act of praying every day.
But still nothing's changing
Expressing frustration that despite prayer, nothing is changing.
Feels like my life might need rearranging
Feeling that life may need a significant rearrangement.
You say that you're here and right now is a test of faith
Acknowledging a challenging situation as a test of faith.
So open up my heart and have your way
Invoking a request to open up the heart and allow divine intervention.
I'm sinking in my thoughts so pull me from the waves
Feeling overwhelmed by negative thoughts and seeking rescue.
My head's above the water you're my sweet escape
Finding solace and escape in a positive influence.
I need you just so I can breathe
Expressing dependence on a higher power for the ability to breathe.
Now I can breathe, hey I can breathe
Celebrating the newfound ability to breathe with divine assistance.
I can breathe, I need you just so I can breathe
Reiterating the need for divine support to breathe.
You said this feeling
Referring to a predicted temporary emotion or situation.
Would only last for a season, yeah
Indicating that the predicted season has not ended.
But I'm still here and I'm wondering
Expressing confusion about not returning to a previous state.
Why I'm not the same
Questioning personal transformation and its permanence.
I prayed every day
Highlighting consistent daily prayer.
That's when you changed me
Attributing personal change to divine intervention.
I'm not the same cause you rearranged me
Emphasizing a positive transformation through divine rearrangement.
You said you were here that was my test of faith
Recalling the assurance of divine presence during the test of faith.
Oh, open up my heart and have your way
Repeating the request to open up the heart for divine influence.
I'm sinking in my thoughts so pull me from the waves
Feeling submerged in negative thoughts and seeking rescue again.
My head's above the water you're my sweet escape
Finding comfort and escape in a positive influence once more.
I need you just so I can breathe
Expressing ongoing dependence on a higher power for breathing.
Oh, breathe, breathe
Repeating the word "breathe" for emphasis.
Oh, breathe, I need you just so I can breathe
Reiterating the need for divine support to breathe.
Open up my heart and have your way
Repeating the request to open up the heart for divine influence.
I'm sinking in my thoughts so pull me from the wave
Experiencing a recurrence of negative thoughts and seeking rescue.
My hand's above the water you're my sweet escape
Experiencing a sense of safety and escape in a positive influence.
I need you just so I can breathe
Reiterating the dependence on a higher power for the ability to breathe.
Now I can breathe, oh, yeah, I can breathe
Expressing the joy of being able to breathe with divine assistance.
I can breathe
Reiterating the newfound ability to breathe with divine assistance.
Oh, I need you just so I can breathe
Emphasizing the ongoing need for divine support to breathe.
I need you just so I can breathe
Reiterating the ongoing dependence on a higher power for breathing.
