Chris Brown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air?
If I should die before I wake
It's 'cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air, oh
I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave
My heart won't move, it's incomplete
Is there a way I could make you understand?
But how
Do you expect me, to live alone with just me?
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air?
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
That's how I feel whenever you ain't there
There's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gon' be without me?
If you ain't here I just can't breathe
There's no air, no air
No air air, No air air
I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew right off
The ground and float to you
There's no gravity to hold me down, for real
But somehow I'm still alive inside
You took my breath but I survived
I don't know how but I don't even care
So how do you expect me to live alone with just me?
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air?
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
That's how I feel whenever you ain't there
There's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gon' be without me?
If you ain't here I just can't breathe
There's no air, no air
No air air, No air air
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air?
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
That's how I feel whenever you ain't there
There's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gon' be without me?
If you ain't here I just can't breathe
There's no air, no air
No air air, No air air
Got me here out in the water so deep
Tell me how you goin' be without me?
If you ain't here I just can't breathe
There's no air, no air
No air air, no air air

Line by Line Meaning
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air?
Being without you is like trying to survive without air, which is impossible.
If I should die before I wake
It's 'cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air, oh
You hold the key to my happiness and well-being. Without you, life has no purpose or meaning.
I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave
My heart won't move, it's incomplete
Is there a way I could make you understand?
I am lost and incomplete without you. My heart longs for you, and I want you to truly understand how much I need you.
But how
Do you expect me, to live alone with just me?
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe
I cannot imagine a life without you. You are the center of my world, and living without you would be unbearable.
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
That's how I feel whenever you ain't there
There's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gon' be without me?
If you ain't here I just can't breathe
There's no air, no air
No air air, No air air
Being without you is a suffocating feeling. It's like being stranded in the middle of the ocean with no air to breathe. I can't imagine how you would survive without me, just as I cannot survive without you.
