about

Life can consume us so much that often we need a reminder that we are humans and making mistakes is all apart of the process. Sometimes we need to remind ourselves that we got this, don't give up, and keep fighting. Its in these times we have to write a note to ourselves, to remember to breathe, stretch, and let it go because we are out here doing the best we can with what we have. This jam is that exact point in our hero’s story, a refresher with a little help from Lady Łøs of the Original iLLs.

lyrics

Breathe, stretch, let it go
Before it takes you down below (x3)

Breathe, stretch, let it go
Let it all go...

Tryna keep a balance but I keep tippin the chalice 
Tryna makin a killin like Alice Sweet Alice with less malice
It’s easier not to be an addict 
when you can go and clean the skeletons up out the attic
And I know you hold that mantle as the fuckin baddest 
When really you walked around here just filled with sadness
And it’s madness, puttin on a charade just for the masses
When all they really care about is toastin up they glasses
Now it’s time to pass this and burn it like a match kid
And those tears you cryin save for those close and passin 
Plus that face of regret you gotta mask it 
The world don’t give a fuck about you don’t believe me ask it
So we gotta gas it and red line it on these bastards 
Show’em quittin shit till we hit the casket (yeah)
Wanna know if this life is worth it
Well you damn right it is, it ain’t perfect but we still gotta work it

(Hook)
Ain't no quit in me
As long as I'm in the fight bet on me
I've learned, evolved, i've grown
I've learned how to be my own hero

The way that I figure it we gotta go thru a myriad 
Of shit before we reach that point blank period
And during that time the weather is so serious 
Taking over everything but guess what, he won’t budge
I figured out it’s all about love and not giving up 
So fuck that feeling like you’re not enough or don’t measure up
Cause the tape they usin doesn’t make your fate
So let’s change it before it too late
Gotta go and make a way can’t afford to take no breaks
No life it doesn’t work that way, every days an uncertainty 
So try to make it count every second and fuck the second guessin
Every new morning is a blessin so quit it the stressin 
I know it seems like endless testin with no way to pass the lesson
Trust me you ain’t gotta tell it me brethren
But answer me this question: have you ever tried using peace as your weapon?
In that direction you’ll find a little glimpse of heaven 

(Hook)
Ain't no quit in me
As long as I'm in the fight bet on me
I've learned, evolved, i've grown
I've learned how to be my own hero
