Ja**on Harrold - Running lyrics

[Verse 1: Gregory Porter] Can you see strength in my eyes? I used to sleep through the night Then horror came; There were no lights, no sirens, just guns; It was violent And we had to run or die [Chorus: Gregory Porter] I'm running I'm running I'm running I'm running [Verse 2: Gregory Porter] So much time wasted in tents; Seventeen years inside a fence; I ran from the war, homeless, no school, no future; I'm a ghost, but not finished, I will rise! [Pre Chorus: Gregory Porter] Say, ooh, are we all alone? Say, no, I'll never forget my home [Chorus: Gregory Porter] Running from the place that I know I'm running, what direction should I go? I'm running, so tired and so worn; I won't stop until I'm safe and strong [Verse 3: Common] Where I'm running to is running through my mind; Always on the run; am I running out of time? Darkness in my way; I pray that the sun will shine Started from the bottom and that was underlined By the place that I'm from; sometimes is un­divine; I hear them songs of freedom, and they running through my mind; Close my eyes; imagine a place next to me; Where I no longer can be labeled a refugee Destiny, oh, somewhere down these dark roads; Yeah, we the lost tribe but we found our souls Cold rain, all pain, I left along the way; I fight through the night, just to find a stronger day [Chorus: Gregory Porter] Running from the place that I know I'm running, what direction should I go? Keep running, so tired and so worn; I won't stop until I'm safe and strong [Bridge: Gregory Porter] Oooo Had to flee the place you love; Oooo Tough as nails when things got rough; Oooo Many fathers told their sons and daughters; Say oooo Don't stop running ‘till you're home! Say oooo, Refugee song Say oooo, Refugee song Say oooo, Refugee song Say oooo, Refugee song
