take a breath

Remember to breathe
As much as you hold your breath waiting for that ignorant family member to shut up
They won't change
I know all too well
And dear you need to breathe and rise up
Because I bite my lips and hold my breath
Waiting for them to shut up
Though as much as I try
They won't ever change
And if I held my breath until they stopped
I would suffocate from their ignorance
We can't change each other
Though I love them still
Please if there is a god
change the subject
