Sometimes It’s Hard to Breathe lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sometimes it's hard to breathe when we do what must be done
To keep our lives in order and to have a little fun
We must have love for those against us, for every man and child
We can do it, we can make it for a while

[Verse 2]
If we can recall that everyone brings her story on her shoulder
And never means to harm us when her shrieks are cold and colder
Someone made her tastе his boot and wallow in his bile
We can do it, we can makе it for a while

[Bridge]
For a while, can it almost all make sense?
For a while, can this endless life seem fine?
Though the constant implied threat of violence
Eats away at our precious loving time

[Verse 3]
Truth forever on the scaffold, wrong forever on the throne
Hope forever as false promise, faith forever stands alone
If in her shoes we'll take that step, that proverbial hard mile
We can do it, we can make it, for a while
We can do it, we can make it, for a while
