Running On E

I can't recall the last time I called
The last time I peeled off the words up off the wall
My issues run deep
My tireless need to ball has brought me to a halt
I'm showing you all my faults
Like a gap in the ground cause an earthquake
I separate my best lines for the worst day
The words that I eaten up here got the worst taste
My fault for even being here in the first place
So I maintain what I got right now
High hopes only cover up for the come down
Painting pictures of perfect places for me to pipe down
Yeah I'm in the middle of the right crowd
Wish upon a star to be somewhere new tomorrow
My heartbeat won't slow down guess it's a part of me
I'm a true soul I got nowhere else to go
Try to gather my thoughts but I think they playing hide and seek

Why do I still drive when I'm on E
(Why do I still drive when I'm on E?)
Does it stand for empty or enough
(Someone tell me I don't know)
Two stops down the road is where I should be
(Two stops down the road)
But I guess I'll break down instead of filling up
(Breaking, breaking, filling up)
Why do I run?
Why do I run?
Ohh why do I run?
Why do I run on empty?
Why do I run?
Why do I run?
Ohh why do I run?
Why do I run on empty?

Work smarter, not harder If you wanna chart
My father said don't barter when selling your art
Real baller like coach carter just show em your heart
Like I said, I'm a starter I swim with the sharks
I have dreams some nights about my life
Walking through the dark in the twilight
The way I write a bit redundant ain't it?
But likewise peep the look in my eyes
The game changers don't follow guidelines right?
Punching clocks gotta turn it ten
The extrovert back hurt trynna look through my lens
My pride make it harder for me when establishing friends
Cause who can I trust when I can't trust what I say?
When I wish upon a star to be somewhere new tomorrow
My heartbeat won't slow down guess it's a part of me
I'm a true soul I got nowhere else to go
Try to gather my thoughts but I think they playing hide and seek

Why do I still drive when I'm on E
(Why do I still drive when I'm on E?)
Does it stand for empty or enough
(Someone tell me I don't know)
Two stops down the road is where I should be
(Two stops down the road)
But I guess I'll break down instead of filling up
(Breaking, breaking, filling up)
Why do I run?
Why do I run?
Ohh why do I run?
Why do I run on empty?
Why do I run?
Why do I run?
Ohh why do I run?
Why do I run on empty?
