Keep Running

I've missing every smile, from being young
Before the pain came and made me face what I was running from
Trying to escape fate that, bitter taste
Made me take a closer look at what being Great takes

Gifted athlete
Hard work came easy
Daily practice, only way to succeed
Edging out the past me became a daily ritual
Young individual, tastes being visceral

Things shift
Suicide takes grip
Hide the pain as I push away the friendships
Grip. Lift
Tip. Take a big sip
This sick kid, sees life as a conflict

If I die, it must have been an accident
Love taking risk, but you don't know the half of it
Check my file, I'mma hide it with a big smile
Change the subject of my blues with a dial

So put the tunes in, drift away and tune in
A big piece of my peace, is a piece of music
To get me in that mood again
Get me from the foolishness
Lose the bad vibes, man
I don't wanna ruin this

So I Keep Running
So I Keep Running
I'mma Keep Running
Chasing down my demons
Time to turn these dreams to something
So I Keep Running
So I Keep Running
I'mma Keep Running
Chasing down my demons
Time to turn these dreams to something

As I peer in the mirror
Questions unclear
Like what the fucks in here
How do I appear, to my peers
Do I bring em fear like a lunatic
About to be losing it

Or is it cheer like they're glad to even see me
Smile on repeat
Making it look so easy
But do they know, it's all the hard working
Underneath the surface
Deciphering my purpose

Probably not
It ain't their beast to beat
It ain't their feast to eat
Feeding off their own defeat
So take a seat
Don't worry about me
I'm bound to break free and keep it moving with my own feet

So I Keep Running
So I Keep Running
I'mma Keep Running
Chasing down my demons
Time to turn these dreams to something
