Second Wind Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Why do we build up all these idols just to watch 'em fall?
You're wearin' the crown, toast of the town
Then no one takes your call

[Bridge]
Yeah, maybe I've been down, down, down, down
But I always come back around, 'round, 'round, 'round

[Chorus]
You can't forget about me
While you weren't lookin', I was gettin' even higher
Say what you want about me
Your words are gasoline on my fire
You can hate me, underestimate me
Do what you do 'cause what you do don't phase me

Just when you think I'm at the end
Any second, I'ma catch my second wind

[Verse 2]
An airplane's only paper 'til it finds a breeze
But don't you know that it's the low that makes the high so sweet?
When they try to break, break, break you
That's when you get your break, break, breakthrough
Yeah
[Chorus]
You can't forget about me
While you weren't lookin', I was gettin' even higher
Say what you want about me
Your words are gasoline on my fire
You can hate me, underestimate me
Do what you do 'cause what you do don't phase me

Just when you think I'm at the end
Any second, I'ma catch my second wind

[Bridge]
I've been down, down, down, down
But I always come back around, 'round, 'round, 'round
Yeah

[Chorus]
You can't forget about me
While you weren't lookin', I was gettin' even higher
Say what you want about me
Your words are gasoline on my fire
You can hate me, underestimate me
Do what you do 'cause what you do don't phase me

Just when you think I'm at the end
Any second, I'ma catch my second wind

[Outro]
I'ma catch, I'ma catch, I'ma catch my second wind
Yeah, yeah
I'ma catch my second wind
I'ma catch my second wind
I'ma catch my second wind
Yeah, yeah
I'ma catch my second wind
I'ma catch my second wind

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
