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 bitch 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 Radames and Quiles with his bullshit 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 whore 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 Passion for that...
[Outro] I just wanna thank y'all for believing in me
