Lyrics

Just Can't Breathe
I was just a boy of 10 reading about trolls
Hiding underneath a bridge, waiting for unsuspecting souls
I got so scared I could not breathe, trolls were after me
I went down stairs scared as I could be ,
I said, "dad I just can't breathe."
I still remember what he said
As serious as he could be...
CHORUS
Son if you can't breathe you're gonna die,
Now listen good to me and look me in the eye,
You got to get right with Jesus
Confess your sins to Him
If you can't breathe you're gonna die,
Confess and let Him in.

I'm older now don't believe trolls,
I'm not afraid and I can breathe,
But dad's words still stay with me...
