'' Right Before I Breathe
I'm closing my eyes right before I breathe
after another check of the clock
don' t lose your essence or change your style just for me
side-step , jay-walk and laugh at what you find funny
don' t take for granted the familiar
or build your existence on all that dirty money
yes easy rhymes
if you haven' t , get hip to the signs of the times
twisting, turning, rolling over in my mind as I write
whispers when she kisses
and explains what she needs
skin to skin
I'm closing my eyes
right before I breathe
