Oh

Escape from the past that was stolen
And all your toxic fumes inhaled
The scapegoat of angels and fallen
But my soul is not for sale

Even though you tore me up, it was so surprised
I was suffering
You could never break my will
It made me stronger still
I was smothering
I can't breathe

Spent my whole life living underground
Foot on my back tryna keep me down
Come too far to turn back now
I am not afraid
I will keep the faith
Never back down till my dying days
Staring death straight in her face
I am not afraid

My life, my heart
My soul, I'm not afraid
My breath, my blood
My all, I'm not afraid

You thought you would always control me
You clipped my wings, my dreams in two
I guess that you don't even know me
'Cause I'll never be like you

And even though my pain was real, my back was made of steel
I'm not suffering
And when the is in my face
I never bow afraid
'Cause I'm not afraid
I can't breathe

Spent my whole life living underground
Foot on my back tryna keep me down
Come too far to turn back now
I am not afraid
I will keep the faith
Never back down till my dying days
Staring death straight in her face
I am not afraid

I can't breathe
Smothering
I can't breathe

Spent my whole life living underground (oh)
Foot on my back tryna keep me down
Come too far to turn back now
I am not afraid
I will keep the faith
Never back down till my dying days
Staring death straight in her face
I am not afraid

My life, my heart
My soul, I'm not afraid
My breath, my blood
My all, I am not afraid

I can't breathe
Smothering
I can't breathe
