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 hand Saturdays
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
Isn’t it classic…
Momma said, «it's all right if you cry if you lose a fight»
And Daddy said, «Dry it up, I’m proud of you not giving up»
I’ve been battling so many years
And I’ve stood up to many fears
So keep the faith this 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
Isn’t it classic…
Oh, I don’t know anymore
What am I waiting for?
I know I’m giving it all I have
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 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
Isn’t it classic…
Oh, I need to catch a break
Yeah, I hope I catch a break
