[Intro]
Ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
Stop, where am I? Shock, I can't cry
Pop, I need some space
No, this isn't me, go, please let me breathe
I'll be back sooner than you know

[Chorus]
I need this space just like you need air
I need this time, time to clear up my mind
Wait, did you hear that? (Shh) Hear my heartbeat (Shh)
I need this feeling, woah, yeah, I really need this

[Verse 2]
Wow, I've been blind, I hope I'll be fine
Don't hold me back, no
Yes, I see lights, now, it's so bright
Call my name, I'll be there soon, woah

[Chorus]
I need this space just like you need air
I need this time, time to clear up my mind
Wait, did you hear that? (Shh) Hear my heartbeat (Shh)
I need this feeling
Wait, did you hear that? (Shh) Hear my heartbeat (Shh)
I need this feeling, woah, I really need this

[Post-Chorus]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) I need this
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) I need this
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Really need, yeah, yeah
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Woah

[Bridge]
You know it's not personal, sorry if I'm hurting you
Please don't give up on me now
I needed this time alone to know I could come back home
To breathe, breathe, breathe

[Chorus]
I need this space just like you need air (Yeah, like you need it)
I need this time, time to clear up my mind (Woah)
Wait, did you hear that? (Shh, yeah) Hear my heartbeat (Shh, yeah, woah)
I need this feeling (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Wait, did you hear that? (Shh, oh) Hear my heartbeat (Shh, beat, oh)
I need this feeling, I really need this (Yeah)

[Outro]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Oh
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) I need this, I need this
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Woah, oh
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Woah-oh
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Yeah, oh
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) I really need, woah-oh
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Woah-oh, hey
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Hey, I need
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) Really, really need
(Oh-oh, oh-oh) I need, I need this, need this
Need this
I really need this

Grammy-winning R&B singer, rapper, dancer, graffiti artist, illustrator and the first male lead artist to have his debut single top the Billboard Hot 100 in 8 years with “Run It!” in 2005, Breezy is undoubtedly a multifaceted artist. To add to this, he is the father of Royalty, a princess and the inspiration for his 7th studio album Royalty.

It’s undeniable his ability as a musician, dancer, and all-round entertainer. At the 54th Annual Grammy Awards (February 12th, 2012) his 4th studio album F.A.M.E. won the award for Best R&B Album and a huge number of other awards and nominations ranging from his debut as a 16 year old in 2005 to his most recent projects.

Brown’s career is long-lived, pristine and all about his music with hits such as “Look At Me Now,” “Turn Up the Music,” and “Loyal,” and successful collaborations with Omarion on his hit “Post to Be” and Lil Dicky's “Freaky Friday” in recent years.
