Running, running,
Looking for that love I once knew,
Running, running,
Trying to find my way back to you.
I been running since understanding confiscated my globe,
Shuttering since expression stole the key to my soul,
Struggling since victory presumed control,
Battling since the truth infiltrated my mould,
Seeking to kind a life in invisible hold,
Travelling down a path of a difficult road,
Running without a clue of being lead astray,
Swearing I'm getting closer but really further away.
Running, running,
Looking for that love I once knew,
Running, I'm running,
Trying to find my way back to you.
Don't you sometimes sit back and look at yourself?
Examine things in life you hate, but you've become, get sick of yourself,
The very images you claim lack worth,
Then with uncontrolled labour pains, them very images you gave birth,
This topic got me ceiling walking,
I'm so beside myself I'm looking at me like I'm someone else, and I don't feel I'm talking,
I'm trying to spit it best I can at ya,
We can get focus and recapture attention grabbers that keep you from running.
Running, looking for you,
Said I'm running,
Running, looking for you,
Said I'm running.
In desolate times, I wrestle at times,
Feeling so neglected at times, rejected at times,
Hard to try to get out my mind, hold to the soul,
Believing that it's gonna be fine; he's in control,
Letting go the walk, in the know, forgetting the how,
Strong enough to wait for the when to weaken the now,
Put aside the question of why this is allowed,
Running to the back of the line, looking for mine, looking for mine.
Running, running,
Looking for that love I once knew,
Running, I'm running,
Trying to find my way back to you.
If dead men tell no tales, yo, how do you account for the platinum rappers with millions of record sales,
Then tell me I ain't good 'cause my record fails, with a standard that's set to first-quarter sales, the truth shall prevail,
If I let you dictate it, life would be stale,
But I follow my Lord who's been proven with the scars and nails,
Everybody busy funning, number one stunning,
What else you get from your mama - nothing but heartache from all the running.
Running,
My desires lead me right to the very thing that has me running back to you,
Running, running,
Running,
My desires lead me right to the very thing that has me running back to you,
Running, running.
Running, looking for you,
Said I'm running,
Running, looking for you,
Said I'm running, trying to find my way back to you.
Running, running,
Looking for that love I once knew,
Running, I'm running,
Trying to find my way back to you.
