Inhale Deep Lyrics


bring my drums in
nod your head
im gona do me
we all know that life can get hectic
but if you live in the second
you exist in the present
and that's how you stay connected
the good times and the hardships
if you learn to just accept it and
know that every struggle in life is gunna teach you a lesson
it's times like this that make you
it's always the darkest part of the night
right before the sun has its break through
the spirit's there to knock you down
but if you make that the end you'll never
know the beauty of being able to stand up again

and face it with patience,
the basis is dealin with judgements and hatred,
depressed hopeless feelings
but ive been told you only create your own ceilin
and life is limitless and knowin this is what the spirit is..
thats why i try to inhale deep
so i can find peace, in essence find me
that's why i try to lose myself in these beats
as i become one with the drums and set myself free
whatever direction life leads me
theres a purpose behind it
thats the way it was supposed to be
anytime you can turn over a new leaf
we all know the truth, it's up to us to use the key
it's been three years since my first album dropped
and it's been fear that's really got me stuck in this spot
not wantin to put out anything wack
so instead of putting my licks on tracks
i put my lips to a sack
cuz it's easier to spend your life drunk and high on drugs
then put everything into recording, put it out and then get judged
we look for the audience to put their hands up and show love
but when their hands go down our confidence really takes the plunge
so instead of makin music that people might not like
i went into isolation, traded in my mic for the pipe
started livin the college life: drinkin and smokin everyday
rationalizin to myself that i was goin through a phase
then i'd stop, thinkin my music would take its place
but when you live in fog, inspiration's hard to create
it takes more to connected then to quit smokin from the day
and when i get frustrated i get a swish and get blown away
then all of a sudden it hit me, these kids are listenin
if im not makin music why the fuck am i existing?
how can i talk about the problems or something else
when i dont have the motivation and confidence to change myself
it's been so long since ive really truly felt
what its like to live life without substances to help
massive struggle that’s natural to one’s health
but with addiction in my blood i play the cards i was dealt
knowin its the most calm right before the storm
and when you least expect it, it doesnt rain it poors
i swear to god, you can never be warned
with or without umbrella
natures still gunna still gonna take its course
thats why i try to inhale deep
so i can find peace, in essence find me
thats why i lose myself in these beats
put away the weed, and turn to my mpc

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Ben Haggerty, also know as Macklemore is an emcee from Seattle, Washington that often shows up the larger acts he opens for in the city. At his own shows he keeps the audience going, no matter how small the crowd.

On his debut album, The Language of My World, Macklemore drafts a lyrical landscape of classic proportions. This record is teeming with energy and ambition, serving as a fitting debut for one of this country's most promising young artists. Macklemore's gift, like that of all great songwriters, is his ability to speak on universal experiences in a uniquely personal way. Throughout The Language of My World, Macklemore consistently addresses topics that are uncomfortable or taboo, in an attempt to exorcise his own personal demons.

His music is inspirational, filled with social and racial consciousness, as well as a constructive political vision. He's also funny as hell, making music that is at once hilarious and affecting. Born and raised in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood Macklemore has been an integral part of the Seattle hip-hop scene for the past 7 years. He developed his style and character as part of Elevated Elements, which he founded when he was just 14 years old, and quickly moved on to pursue his solo career. From these humble beginnings Macklemore has matured, both as a songwriter and performer, into an artist who is clearly beginning to realize his near limitless potential.

The Language of My World marks the beginning of a movement. The album also features the talents of emcee Xperience who, along with Macklemore, makes up one half of the super-group Step Cousins. Step Cousins features the lighter side of Macklemore. The chemistry that these two have together is nothing short of timeless, and their debut album, set to drop in the summer of 2006, is sure to break the mold.
