Runnin'

[00:01.61] Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
[00:04.12] Uh huh, check it out, check it out
[00:06.49] One-two one-two one-two one-two one two
[00:08.37] Check the sound, check the sound, check the sound yeah
[00:11.25] One-two one-two one-two one-two one two
[00:13.44] Check the sound, check the sound, check the sound yeah
[00:16.32] One-two one-two one-two one-two one two
[00:18.45] Check the sound, check the sound, check the sound yeah
[00:21.50] One-two one-two one-two one-two one two
[00:24.48] Can't keep running away
[00:29.56] Can't keep running away
[00:34.58] Can't keep running away
[00:39.74] Can't keep running away
[00:44.98] I must admit on some occasions
[00:47.02] I went out like a punk and a chump
[00:48.55] Or a sucka or something to that effect
[00:50.46] Respect I used to never get
[00:51.81] 'Cause all I got was upset
[00:53.65] When n-used to be like
[00:55.05] (What's up, fool? N-, what's up?)
[00:56.33] And tried to sweat a nigga like the Lip
[00:57.68] For no reason at all I can recall n- throwing C's in my face
[01:00.04] Down the hall I'm kickin' it in the back of the school eating chicken at three
[01:03.89] Wondering, "Why is everybody always pickin' on me?
[01:06.42] I tried to talk and tell them, chill, I did nothin' to deserve this
[01:09.04] But when it didn't work, I wasn't scared, just real nervous and unprepared
[01:12.58] To deal with scrappin' no doubt
[01:14.25] My pappy never told me how to knock a n-out
[01:16.53] But now in '95 I must survive as a man on my own
[01:18.63] F- around with Fatlip, yes, ya get blown
[01:21.48] I'm not tryin' to show no macho is shown
[01:24.25] But when it's on, if it's on, then it's on
[01:26.15] Can't keep running away
[01:30.67] Can't keep running away
[01:35.52] Can't keep running away
[01:40.11] Can't keep running away
[01:45.41] One, two so listen here
[01:51.04] There comes a time in every man's life
[01:54.96] When he's gotta handle shit up on his own
[01:57.22] Can't depend on friends to help you in a squeeze
[01:59.82] Please, they got problems of their own
[02:02.43] Down for the count on seven chicken sh- don't get to heaven
[02:05.11] 'Til they faced these fears in these fear zones
[02:07.97] Used to get jacked back up in high school, I played it cool
[02:10.32] Just so some real sh-won't get full blown bein' where I'm from
[02:13.63] They let the smoke come quicker than an evil redneck
[02:16.73] Could lynch a helpless colored figure and
[02:18.68] As a victim I invented low-key
[02:20.55] Till the keyhole itself got lower than me
[02:22.79] So I stood up and let my free form form free
[02:25.45] Said I'm gonna get some before they knockin' out me
[02:28.09] I don't sweat it, I let the bullsh- blow in the breeze
[02:30.77] In other words, just debris
[02:33.08] Can't keep running away
[02:36.98] Can't keep running away
[02:42.50] Can't keep running away
[02:47.23] Can't keep running away
[02:52.27] It's 1995
[03:04.46] And now that I'm older, stress weighs on my shoulders
[03:06.46] Heavy as boulders, but I told y'all
[03:08.21] Until the day that I die I still
[03:10.64] Will be a soldier and that's all I told ya
[03:13.52] And that's all I showed ya
[03:15.17] And that's all I sold ya
[03:16.51] And all this calamity is rippin' my sanity
[03:17.85] Can it be (that I'm a celebrity who's on the brink of insanity?)
[03:24.78] Now don't be wishin' of switchin' any positions with me
[03:26.53] 'Cause when you in my position, it ain't never easy
[03:29.19] To do any type of maintainin'
[03:31.15] 'Cause all this gamin' and famin' from entertainin'
[03:33.76] Is hella strainin' (to the brain and)
[03:36.11] But I can't keep runnin' I just gotta keep keen and cunnin'
[03:39.28] Can't keep running away
[03:44.67] Can't keep running away
[03:49.39] Can't keep running away
[03:54.41] Can't keep running away
[03:59.60] Can't keep running away
[04:03.22] Can't keep running away
[04:06.09] Can't keep running away
[04:08.56] Can't keep running away
[04:11.02] Can't keep running away
[04:13.63] Can't keep running away
[04:16.25] Can't keep running away
[04:18.60] Can't keep running away
[04:21.31] Can't keep running away, running away
[04:25.04] Can't keep running away, running away
[04:29.40]
