[Intro: Jordin Sparks]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
Ooh, oh, no

[Verse 1: Jordin Sparks, Chris Brown]
If I should die before I wake
It's 'cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air, oh
I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave
My heart won't move, it's incomplete
Wish there was a way that I can make you understand

[Pre-Chorus: Jordin Sparks]
But how do you expect me
To live alone with just me?
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe

[Chorus: Jordin Sparks & Chris Brown]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air (No air)
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
That's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you're gon' be without me
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air
[Post-Chorus: Jordin Sparks, Chris Brown]
No air, air (Oh-oh)
No air, air (No, ooh)
No air, air (Oh, ah)
No air, air

[Verse 2: Chris Brown, Jordin Sparks]
I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew
Right off the ground to float to you
There's no gravity to hold me down for real
But somehow I'm still alive inside
You took my breath, but I survived
I don't know how, but I don't even care

[Pre-Chorus: Jordin Sparks & Chris Brown]
So how (How) do you expect me (Me)
To live alone with just me? (Oh, oh)
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe

[Chorus: Jordin Sparks, Chris Brown, Both]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air (Oh) (Oh)
Can't live, can't breathe with no air (Oh) (Oh)
That's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water, so deep (So deep)
Tell me how you're gon' be without me (Without me, yeah)
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe (Breathe, no)
It's no air, no air (No air)
[Post-Chorus: Jordin Sparks, Both]
No air, air (Oh)
No air, air (Oh, no)
No air, air (No, whoa)
No air, air (No more)

[Bridge: Jordin Sparks, Chris Brown]
Baby
No air

[Chorus: Jordin Sparks, Chris Brown, Both]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air (No air)
Can't live, can't breathe with no air (Oh whoa) (No air)
That's how I feel whenever you ain't there (No breathing) (No breathing at all)
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water, so deep (So deep) (So deep)
Tell me how you're gon' be without me (Without me, yeah) (Can't live without you, baby)
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe (Breathe)
It's no air, no air (No air)

[Post-Chorus: Jordin Sparks, Chris Brown]
No air, air
(How do you expect me?)
No air, air (Baby, bae)
(To live alone with just me)
No air, air (Oh!)
('Cause my world revolves around you) (Oh whoa whoa)
No air, air
(It's so hard for me to breathe) (Hard for me to breathe) (Oh!)
[Chorus: Jordin Sparks, Chris Brown, Both]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air (No air)
Can't live, can't breathe with no air (Hard for me to breathe) (No, no, no)
That's how I feel whenever you ain't there (Oh!) (Not there)
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water, so deep
Tell me how you're gon' be without me
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air

[Outro: Jordin Sparks, Chris Brown, Both]
No air, air (Oh)
No air, air (Oh oh) (Whoa)
No air, air (No air)
No air
