Run from my shadow, run from myself I run from my power Run from a barrel Run myself ragged runnin' from hell Run from my thoughts, run from my b**h Want to know where I'm off Runnin' the risk Of runnin' out of everything I was taught Ran over words, ran over sneakers Leanin', run 'til they off Runnin' barefoot Feet bleedin', now the meat peelin' off Ran through a yard, hopped the fence Then I ran from a dog They called the cops Now I'm runnin' from the pigs in the fall Run from ? as the ? with his bullsh** gun Run from my life, run from my stress And my success, like they want Ran from the bloods on Saratoga Ave
When I was young Ran from that blue truancy van When it used to come Run from my perils, run from my plights Run 'til I fall Run from my family, run from my rights Run from my wrongs Runnin' in place Runnin' backwards, ran into a wall Runnin' out of time Runnin' out of strength to run at all Runnin' for the train Runnin' like the warriors Or like a who*e on Maury does I'm runnin' from the shame Tears runnin' down my face Fear runnin' though my brain Can't run from what's inside you Pa**ion for that... [Outro] I just wanna thank y'all for believing in me
