Black Star Respiration -

Respiration - song and lyrics by Black Star, Common - Spotify

: Samples a monologue from the 1983 graffiti documentary Style Wars , setting a gritty, authentic New York tone. Black Star Respiration

: Captures the feeling of being trapped and small. He describes "deep city breaths" taken while sitting on "shitty steps" and looking for God in a sky filled with smog and "broken dreams". Respiration - song and lyrics by Black Star,
