Erick the Architect - Breaking Point Lyrics

Oh, pride won't let me escape
Smilin' on my face
When love don't feel the same
Oh, how much can I take?
Drownin' in my pain
Bendin' 'til I break

Watch me spin in cycles
In my dream, on my own
Spinnin' over windmills, runnin' from sin
Think I left the key there, won't let me in
Worst case happens, cracks in the glass
Everyone's got a breaking point
Everyone's got a breaking point
(Everyone's got a breaking point)
(Everyone's got a breaking point)

Ooh, what do you think I am?
I'm not made of steel
You wouldn't know how that feels, to die
Death by thousand knives
I'm proud to be alive
After what we put us through

Watch me spin in cycles
In my dream, on my own
Spinnin' over windmills, runnin' from sin
Think I left the key there, won't let me in
Worst case happens, cracks in the glass
Everyone's got a breaking point
Everyone's got a breaking point

It's the moment to seize your opportunity (seize your opportunity)
It is not okay to be unaware, because this is your moment, baby (this is your moment, baby)
You are proof that beauty exists (beauty exists)
And you are proof that God is real (God is so real)
While the guilt I felt for years was incessant and never ending, it was necessary
And all them salty tears, damn, all them salty tears are now tears of joy (tears of joy)
Now I walk with that shadow of guilt behind me, a warrior in valor
A painter enamored by his broad strokes
A man moving with the accuracy and purpose of a hummingbird (hummingbird)
A man with the flow of the Nile, that's a golden hue diverging into a pasture in Cairo (yeah)
This is a man that radiates in fear

When times is hard, we roll the dice
Rapid-fire, so precise
I was broken down before I spilled heart at open mics
I think I was only twelve
Snatched them cookies, they was stale
Moms preserved my innocence from duckin' cops, escapin' jails (love you, ma)
Learned to dodge them bullets 'cause this life had its own share of scars
I could never swim without you, tides is turning, we evolve
Breakin' points, used to think I hate my voice, I'm glad I spoke it
Guilty of just loving you too much, but I can't fix what's broken
Agitated, do we change the change? I'm standing at the pulpit
Hand to God, knew I was the one, they thought that I was jokin'
Didn't drive, what I kept inside would leak through my emotions
Five on fives, always played the block, although I should be coachin'
Ashy skin, wished my granny rubbed my elbows with some lotion
Killed the vibe, can't extinguish fire, they'll sit on a ocean

Watch me spin in cycles
