[Intro]
Oh, breathe, oh, breathe, oh, breathe
Oh, breathe, oh, breathe, oh, breathe
Oh, breathe, oh, breathe, oh, breathe
Oh, breathe, oh, breathe, oh, breathe

[Verse 1]
Ooh I, love when you resist
Say when you make me work for it, you know I put in that overtime
I can feel your body tense up when I bite your lips (when I bite your lips)
Uh, did it hurt so good? Girl, did it hurt so good?
When I grabbed your neck and pulled you close to me
Like I said I would
Let me, check your status, girl
Baby girl, to me, you taste like you're ready
Is you ready, baby?

[Chorus]
Baby, breathe (oh, breathe, oh, breathe)
I need you to breathe
Baby, don't pass out on me now (oh, breathe, oh, breathe)
Baby, breathe (oh, breathe)

[Post-Chorus]
And when I kiss right there, don't hold your breath
Might back it up, baby girl, not yet
I think I'm gon' start right here with your neck
Started working my way down
When I get there, baby girl, don't hold your breath
I want you to fill it all in your chest
I think I'm gonna start right here with your neck
Start working my way down
On my way down, yeah

[Verse 2]
She call me daddy, when I put her legs near her head, mmm (oh, la la la-la la la la la)
She love it when I put in that overtime
We end on the balcony, we started in the bed, mmm (oh, la la la-la la la la la) (slow it down)
And it hurts so good (so good)
We go back and forth but still it ends the same
When you're calling my name, girl (calling my name, baby, say my name)
Tell the truth, baby, I love this little gameplay
But I could see it on your face

[Chorus]
You need to breathe (oh, breathe, oh, breathe)
I need you to breathe
Baby, don't pass out on me now (oh, breathe, oh, breathe)
Baby, breathe (oh, breathe)

[Post-Chorus]
And when I kiss right there, don't hold your breath
Might back it up, baby girl, not yet
I think I'm gon' start right here with your neck
Started working my way down
When I get there, baby girl, don't hold your breath
I want you to fill it all in your chest
I think I'm gonna start right here with your neck
Start working my way down
On my way down, yeah

[Chorus]
Baby, breathe
I need you to breathe
Baby, don't pass out on me now
I need you to breathe
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Baby, don't pass out on me
