RUNAWAY

Oh, oh-oh, oh
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah

Yeah
If I had a million dollars, bet my life would change
No more jugging for my shit and no more saving change
I ain't gon' lie, I get a mill', no, I ain't coppin' chains
I'd rather split it with my mans so all our lives can change
You see, we act the way we act cause we lack finer things
And learn to shoot 'cause no one took us to no riffle range
And even if it's contradict to tell me put my gun away
So conflicted in my mind sometimes, I wanna run away, damn

(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Round and round and round we go (yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
Lord, take me to where the streets is gold (oh, oh-oh, oh)
Wanna go somewhere nobody knows (yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)

(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Round and round and round we go (yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
My whole life I've been fiending for (oh, oh-oh, oh)
To go somewhere nobody knows (yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)

Yeah, uh
I'm the leader out my friends and that's just how it is (just how it is)
Know they depending on me so I gotta make it big
And it's no pressure, these streets raised a go-getter
So I surround myself with smart niggas that know better
So nah, we don't need lectures, we off all the peer pressure
I might die tomorrow, my mind's nowhere near next semester

My feet wetter
I'm in the streets so I see better
Knowing I can make it one day so mom can sleep better
Shorty never home, I ain't gon' lie, it's hard to eat better
Hard to think that I could fly away with all these weak feathers

Like I never had shit, 'cause I never had shit
Thank God, my momma had some sense to move me out the city 'fore I ended up dead
For bullshit and then bad shit
Got me thinking, I'm the reason mom keep gettin' cancer
All this stress I be causing and all this madness
I wake up every day and every day is blackness, damn

(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Round and round and round we go (yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
Lord, take me to where the streets is gold (oh, oh-oh, oh)
Wanna go somewhere nobody knows (yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)

(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Round and round and round we go (yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)
My whole life I've been fiending for (oh, oh-oh, oh)
To go somewhere nobody knows (yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah)

(COUPE)
Uh, yeah
Yeah
Yeah, for sure
Yeah
Uh, yeah

How far am I willing to go?
Do whatever it takes just to blow
Spend my whole life chasing dreams
How far am I willing to grow?
I'll never forget 'bout the days me and ma shared a room and I slept on the floor
Man, growing up, we was so poor
More than often, we hung our head low

I look in the mirror and see
Really everyone in, except me
Hard to embrace who I am
When inside, think it's nothing to be
I think I'll start acting like those who I saw on the streets or I see on TV
Everyone except me, everyone except me

Cause who would wanna accept me?
Do I be who I be? Yeah
I don't hit the bottom, nigga
Of course, I land on my feet
But when does this come to a break?
Seem like everyone else got it straight
I'm just fighting for leftover plate
Fuck a drink or a slice of the cake
Sometimes I just wanna run away, yeah, uh
