Runnin'
Tired of runnin', tired, tired of runnin' now
Tired of runnin', so tired of runnin' now
Ah, yo
I'm so tired of runnin' in circles got me going cray
Always walking over the hot coals leaving burnin' pain
Now they caught me on the deserted lane
But I never meant to cause you any sorrow babe, Purple Rain
Why they always blow up in my face like a hurricane
Knockin' over hurdles but never mean to perpetrate
Don't you think it's a bit exaggerated?
To say it's better to interact with each other from a certain range
Tired of runnin' around (so tired, so tired)
Can't stand it anymore (no more, no more), no
We keep on runnin' around, runnin' around, e-eey, o-ooh
But what are we runnin' for? (What are we runnin' for?)
What are we runnin' for?
Tired of runnin', tired, tired of runnin' now
Tired of runnin', tired, tired of runnin' now
Workin' our asses off, but still it isn't good enough
If you're not fast enough they'll label you a dirty slob
So you better run now and blend it in
I know it's hard to talk about it but stop ignoring the elephant
You can keep on fighting the system and what's controlling them
But it doesn't alter the fact that you'll get overtaken by events
It probably might be your last attempt
'Cause hey, everybody wants to live their
Freakin' lives without commands
Tired of runnin' around (so tired, so tired)
Can't stand it anymore (no more, no more), no
We keep on runnin' around, runnin' around, e-eey, o-ooh
But what are we runnin' for? (What are we runnin' for?)
What are we runnin' for?
Man, find it hard to understand
'Cause there is always someone needed for the blame
Damn, we gotta stop pointing them fingers
The participants are colder than the game
We're one and the same
Still all o' the hatred's devastating
We're just wasting all our time with complains
Lately we're feeling hounded
Surrounded by negativity when will we learn?
Tired of runnin' around (so tired, so tired)
Can't stand it anymore (no more, no more), no
We keep on runnin' around, runnin' around, e-eey, o-ooh
But what are we runnin' for? (What are we runnin' for?)
What are we runnin' for?
Tired of runnin', tired, tired of runnin' now
What are we runnin' for?
Tired of runnin', so tired of runnin'
What are we runnin' for?
Tired of runnin', tired, tired of runnin' now
What are we runnin' for?
Tired of runnin', so tired of runnin', ru-runnin'
What are we runnin' for?
Now what are we runnin' for, what are we runnin' for
Huh?!
Tired of runnin', so tired of runnin' now
Ah, yo
I'm so tired of runnin' in circles got me going cray
Always walking over the hot coals leaving burnin' pain

Now what are we runnin' for, what are we runnin' for
Huh?!
