Run Away

Yeh, this ain't a song uh
Just let it run
Hey I used to know a kid he was the talk of the town
Everybody always said they loved the way he'd get down
Everyone was counting on him so he followed his dreams
Hit the gas when he was 18 to hop on the scene
He was a smart one, used to cop bounces the smoke
Growin up this shit was easy cause his life was a joke
Never paid too much attention to the chicks and shit
Cause they was focused on the kids who had the whole package
He was more the type of kid to make a whole bunch of friends
But never really got close cause his life was a mess
His parents weren't around they was out getting drunk
So at night he would write and sit there in the funk
He had a dark side but even worse no one could know
But in between all the drama it was taking a tole
Everything was catching up and he was super depressed
So he would pray to God at night to please stop this stress

I wanna run away run away run away
But I ain't got nowhere to go
So help me slow it down God yeh
Help me slow it down God, yeh

And so a couple weeks past and he was doing alright
Started talking to this girl about bout his life
It was cool cause she was kinda in the same position
She was new to the town and had someone to listen
They would go out after school and walk around at the pond
He even brought a guitar and said he wrote her a song
She was flattered, told him that she used to get battered
Something sparkled in her eye he said it doesn't matter
I'm a take you over anything, the past is the past
They had their first kiss walked off and started to laugh
It was weird though cause given that she seemed stronger
Had some demons but he knew that she'd been managing longer
So he started falling back and saying it was all good
He didn't wanna talk about even though he should
He was afraid that she'd say she's been through worst
That he's a crybaby and everybody goin get get hurt, still

I wanna run away run away run away
But I ain't got nowhere to go
So help me slow it down God yeh
Help me slow it down God

I wanna run away run away run away
But I ain't got nowhere to go
So help me slow it down God yeh
Help me slow it down God yeh

But one night it was 3 in the morning and he had woken up
Opened up the curtain and he saw that it was dark as fuck
Snuck past his dad who had fallen asleep,
Watching tv downstairs drinking a cup of bleach
He walked down to the basement and saw a cabinet
Looked around laughed a bit, saw the gun grabbed it
Ran down to the lake where he had hoped to see
That she had been there waitin for him
Like she was supposed to be
She wasn't there so he got out his phone
And left a note that read "why? Why'd you leave me alone?"
As he walked toward the water she was there like wait stop
It was too late he said "I'm runnin away I can't stop"
And he pulled the trigger, the loud blast made her ears pop
She started crying and she said, "somebody call the cops"
But when they got there they looked around the scene
And found two dead bodies holding hands by the stream
They searched the bodies and they found a small cd
With this beat looped over and the cover said CMP
