Mama called me speedy
Growing up she said sweetie
Don’t you ever quit, I never quit
Out running these demons
At night I heard her pleading
Well she would say praying
“Give a black child hope in this cruel dark world
Don’t ever let’em stop relaying in this marathon”
She was on what Nip was on, before Nip was on
RIP
But I’m older now and I’m pushing on
So you can bet I’m gone (B.I.G.)
That’s why I’m never smoking weed
And I’m tryna stop drinking G
It’s only gonna slow me down, hold me down
And you know man that can’t be
I gotta go (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I gotta go (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I gotta go (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Runaway. (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Windows let the air in but also the rain
Gotta get my sh#t fixed
Windows let the sun in but heat turns into pain
Gotta get the good tint
Protecting your mental is hard when you know you insane
To the rest of the world
And you wanna have trust in your heart thinking they’ll have the same
Till things unfurl, but I knew better
Call that my foreword gotta do better
Spill malbec and move forward
Won’t get stuck see that’s word
To the mother-land, and if the devil is on me I might dance
Throw hands kick it out the door like pam
I’ve grown I see the snakes now I overstand
And with all these dreams I’ve got, you’ve got in hand
Can’t stand for the negative man
I gotta go (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I gotta go (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I gotta go (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Runaway. (La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
Can’t look back (No)
I ain’t going that way (No)
Stay on track (yeah)
I keep moving that’s faith (yeah)
Can’t look back (No)
I ain’t going that way
Can’t look back (No)
I ain’t going that way (No)
Stay on track (yeah)
I keep moving that’s faith (yeah)
Can’t look back (No)
I ain’t going that way
I’m running I’m running I’m running
Gotta keep moving forward
Never stop moving forward
