It was hard to find this one in such good quality, so enjoy... a beautiful song:)

And to clear up any misunderstandings:

Hydroponikz a.k.a. Ryan Abugan, whose youtube-profile is    / hydroponikz   , made this song by taking out the "hardly breathe"-part of the medley-song Rock And Roll Could Never Hip-Hop Like This Pt. 2, by Handsome Boy Modeling School ft. Mike Shinoda and Chester Bennington (Track 9 here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Pe..., released in 2004, and used this sample and rapped over it. Hydroponikz did this in 2005. In the track you can hear Hydroponikz rapping, Chester Bennington singing, and Mike Shinoda saying "breathe breathe breathe" during the bridge at 3:20.
In the original track from HBMS, Mike's rap "Spell It Out" is also featured.
This song is NOT part of Fort Minor, Gray Daze, Dead By Sunrise or released on any Linkin Park album. Hope this clears away some misunderstandings. Hydroponikz has as far as I know never met with Linkin Park, or Handsome Boy Modeling School, but has done the world a great favour by lengthening the 1 and a half minute original hardly breathe-part into a full 4 minute song:)


Lyrics:
I can't seem to focus,
It's hopeless unless the sky opens,
Look you in the eyes and all I see is a blur hopin,
That my previous mindstate; could be resurrected,
To the old me; it's like you had me injected with imperfection,
How could you be so reckless? I initially meant it,
Seems like you put your effort into me, what am I left with?
Nothin' but a canvas with a black and white portrait,
Of me and you, in a burnin' garden of scorchin' orchids.
Simple beauty that's bein torn down by your power,
That constantly pounds on my soul hour after hour,
Now I can hardly breathe, get rid of these memories,
Continually haunting me,
Cant change who I've come to be,
The darkness only ends as soon as you open your eyes,
And you hope to realize that hope is cloaked in disguise,
Again I look you in the eyes and all I see is a blur,
But when I look in the mirror I can see who you were.

Nothing I can say or do,
Will take away what I've been through,
What you were is what I've come to be,
Nothing you can say to me,
Will take away these memories,
What you were is what I've come to be!

(what I've come to be x2)

The sky opens wide, to swallow me again,
Once I am inside, I'm lost and cant pretend,
These pictures in my mind, are not a part of me,
These memories hold me tight, till I can hardly breathe

I can hardly breathe (breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe...) x2

I can hardly stop the memories..

Nothing I can say or do,
Will take away what I've been through,
What you were is what I've come to be,
Nothing you can say to me,
Will take away these memories,
What you were is what I've come to be!

(what I've come to be x2)

(Hardly breathe)
(Memories)
(Haunting me)
(Come to be) x2

Now I can hardly breathe, get rid of these memories,
Continually haunting me,
Cant change who I've come to be x4

(I can hardly breathe.....)
(I can hardly stop the memories..)
Now I can hardly breathe, change who I've come to be.

Nothing I can say or do,
Will take away what I've been through,
What you were is what I've come to be,
Nothing you can say to me,
Will take away these memories,
What you were is what I've come to be!
