I Need A Break... But I'd Rather Have A Breakthrough
Daddy taught me how to fight Working hard all his life I started out as a teen And I remember these things
Calloused hands, seven days (?) You gotta fight to get your pay And what I need, I know (?) But I'm about to lose control
I need a break, but I'd rather have a breakthrough I'm losing my sleep running after you But still, I'd rather have a breakthrough So I don't stop making moves I need a break, but I'd rather have a breakthrough I'm tripping on hurdles running after you But I can see it right at my fingertips (?) (Something after that, but I can't quite get it.)
Mama said it's all right If you're crying if you lose a fight Daddy said dry it up. I'm proud of you not giving up. I've been battling so many years, and I stood up to many fears. So keep the faith, this I know, but I'm about to lose control.

(Something after that, but I can't quite get it.)
I don't know anymore. What am I waiting for? I know, I know I'm giving it all I have. I want, I want to give up so bad. How come I keep on running? But I feel it coming, I feel it coming on.

I need to catch a break. Yeah, I hope I catch a break.
