"Lose My Breath" is a song recorded by American group Destiny's Child for their fifth and last studio album Destiny Fulfilled (2004). It was written by Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams, Rodney Jerkins, LaShawn Daniels, Fred Jerkins III, Sean Garrett and Jay-Z. The song was partially developed by Jerkins before being presented to Destiny's Child; its chorus was afterwards rewritten by Jay-Z. An uptempo R&B and dance-pop song, "Lose My Breath" has a marching, military percussion-led instrumentation with different sound effects in its backing track. Columbia Records released the song as the lead single from Destiny Fulfilled on October 23, 2004.

"Lose My Breath" received positive reviews from music critics, who generally praised its melody and instrumentation. The song further received a Grammy Award nomination in the category for Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group. "Lose My Breath" was commercially successful, peaking at number three on the US Billboard Hot 100 and reaching the top spot on numerous international charts, as well as appearing within the top ten in almost every country it charted in.

The song's accompanying music video was directed by Marc Klasfeld and filmed in Los Angeles, California. It featured Destiny's Child performing dance choreographies portraying three different sets of characters. The song was performed during the group's tour Destiny Fulfilled... and Lovin' It (2005) and on numerous televised appearances and awards ceremonies in 2004 and 2005. The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) used "Lose My Breath" as the official song for the NBA playoffs in 2004 and 2005.
