Hello.
I assume that you have problems in holding breath for long time. And there are no other complaints like cough, wheezing or chest pain.
Singing is an exercise. You need to train and control your voice box. Usually your breath holding should improve slowly by training. Do regular aerobic exercises and breathing exercises. You can consult a pulmonologist in person for further advice.
