Runnin' I ain't running away
Runnin' I ain't running away
Runnin' I ain't running away
Cause, I'm so tired of Runnin'

I'm so tired of running, that I've worn my soles
Out, to the point that my toes is out, to the point that I can't look back and even if I did I still couldn't see where I started out, can't see home for miles, I'm
Lost like another orphan child, I'm only grinning cause I'm supposed to smile, so I do it for the ones that are down and out proud one of their's is gonna be
A spokesman now, and I'm still running, running, but I don't know where, all I got to my name is one pair, of laced up chucks, 5 bucks, and a chip on my
Shoulder that's so big that I cannot bare, I done lost my friends, family, and home for this, and for that I have lost my mind, kept my faith, lost my direction
I'm just hoping that I haven't lost my time, Go!

I keep my head up, with my feet on the ground,
From the bottom so up is the only place that I'm
Going, Ready to face what's in front of me now,
Cause, I'm so tired of Runnin' I'm walking through the fire,

Moving in the same direction wherever the wind is blowing
Ready to face what's in front of me now,
Cause I'm so tired of Runnin'

Runnin' I ain't running away
Runnin' I ain't running away
Runnin' I ain't running away
Cause, I'm so tired of Runnin'

I'm so tired of struggling, I'm so tired of hustlin,
I can feel my heart fi ll with hate, I'm so tired of loving,
I was supposed To be great, I'm so tired of duckin,
Tired of coming home from my job being fi red from nothing,
And shit I'm tired, from the nights a muthafucka took that
Ride, to make that dream come alive, then wake up in the morning to a 9 to 5,
But I gotta do it if I wanna survive,
Because in the city where I'm from it's either do or die,
So choose it wise because you could lose it in the blink of an eye but even in the darkest times it's proven I

I keep my head up, with my feet on the ground,
From the bottom so up is the only place that I'm
Going, Ready to face what's in front of me now,
Cause, I'm so tired of Runnin' I'm walking through the fire,
Cause their is no way around,
Moving in the same direction wherever the wind is blowing
Ready to face what's in front of me now,
Cause I'm so tired of Runnin'

Runnin' I ain't running away
Runnin' I ain't running away
Runnin' I ain't running away
Cause, I'm so tired of Runnin'
