If I Didn't Breathe Again
Breathing Life into Destiny: Yannah Rose's Musical Odyssey
Lyrics
If I Didn't want this so bad
If the desire for this is not strong
I'd fold never make this mold
I would give up and never create this pattern
I'd never grow
I would never develop or progress
Destiny would never happen
Fate or destiny would not unfold
Memories would never grow old
Memories would remain stagnant and not mature
Yea
Expressing agreement or affirmation
Paths would never be told
Stories or journeys would remain untold
Ooo Ooo
Exclamation or emotional expression
(Paths would never be told)
Reiteration that stories would remain untold
Ooo ooo ooo
Repetition of emotional expression
Let me help remember a time
Request to recall a past time
When we were grand
Reflecting on a time of significance and greatness
We stook a stand
Emphasizing taking a stance
We had a Black President
Recalling the era of having a Black President
Nothing can stop Us
Asserting invincibility
Over Outside Inside
Emphasizing various perspectives: Outside, Inside
Outside Inside
Repetition of Outside, Inside
We can Breathe Again
Expressing the ability to breathe freely again
We will Breath Again
Confident affirmation of breathing again
I can squeeze
Expressing the ability to embrace tightly
We can squeeze
Joint ability to embrace tightly
Each other Again
Reunion and closeness like gifts or trips
Like gifts, Like trips
Symbolic reference to shared experiences
To A Foreign Land
Metaphorically traveling together
Just take my hand
Symbolic gesture of support
Just Grow
Encouragement to grow together
With Me
Invitation to grow together
With Me Hmm
Expressive sound, possibly signifying contemplation
Touch me there
Sensory appeal, suggesting intimacy
Climb these stairs
Metaphorical ascent, overcoming challenges together
If I didn't
Conditional statement about time and remembrance
Time would time would win it
Time would overcome if not for determination
She would get Me
Potential negative outcome if not remembered
They could redirect Me
External influences redirecting the speaker
Undetected blessings
Hidden or unnoticed positive outcomes
Take me to the Crescent
Desire to reach a special place or state
Yea yes
Affirmative response
If I didn't
Conditional statement about consequences
If I didn't
Repetition of the conditional statement
Yes
Affirmative response
