Take A Breath

I think this song is about a relationship that is controlling and one of the people in that specific relationship breaks free and says this is my life not yours.

For one, these lyrics are incorrect. He says "God wanted me" not "got what I need." I think he's speaking to the Illuminati elites of the world (but in his case Hollywood).

You can take all the things you think I need (fame, fortune) All I wear upon my sleeve (his emotions that he writes to make his music) All the ways that you perceive (the way the elites see the world...all about sin) I no longer need it (he wants out of the 'selling your soul' contract)

I know what it means Black and white (black and white is big amongst the Illuminati. It represents good and evil where evil is good and good is evil) God wanted me (god wants his soul) And that's why 

You lead me on the edge of sanity (by sabotaging his career because he doesn't want to sell his soul, or he wants out) There's not much left, just take a breath (I think he's speaking to himself in this line) You paint me out as mediocrity (they make his talent look mediocre in the media) Put to the test, just take a breath (again, talking to himself)

And me, I just take things as they come (he I think did sell his soul thinking it was the right thing to do at first) I stick around until it's done (he paid his dues) And I'm not your chosen one, (he's not who they want him to be...listen to country boy) But can you admit it...(they want his soul)

I know what it means Black and white God wanted me And that's why 

You lead me on the edge of sanity There's not much left, just take a breath You paint me out as mediocrity Put to the test, just take a breath

You can take all the things you think I need All the ways that you 

You lead me on the edge of sanity There's not much left, just take a breath You paint me out as mediocrity  Put to the test, just take a breath

I know what it means Black and White!

I stand firm by my beliefs.
