Every day curse
Wise Thought
Every breath I take,
It seems as if its going to be my last
Sometime I have to check my watch
Because it feels like days have passed
I remember the days
When I used to run and play
With the kids that made up the hood
But now I sit and watch because
My lungs don t work as good as they should
I was diagnosed with something called COPD
Whatever, the hell that means
My Doctor explained it as three diseases that made up their own little team
Asthma, bronchitis, and emphysema are the three
If I got my facts straight
The sign and symptoms were there but I caught them little to late
Shortness of breath and fatigue
Yeah, that s me
The use of my shoulders and chest muscles just to breathe
A barrel-like chest and anxiety but I can only short speak
I have to take in some extra oxygen just to eat
I cry every day from being this way
And I could have prevented it all
But I thought it was cool
To smoke cigarettes in the mall
Please learn from my Downfall
