lyrics

I been running all my life
running since i was a little child
left to right day n night i been running, running
running running running running all my life

Im a man on the run
man I'm pretty wasted
but I'm running the motor city crush
running out of places
open up and let me in

there's a man with a gun
don't know why he's chasing, running me down
knowing that its good to show a little love
running out of places
you gotta open up and let me in

its an urban jungle
but man its hard to keep a cool head and be humble
poison particles of air this city's got me breathing
its like this house was once a home but lost that loving feeling
he aint heavy he's my brother staring at the ceiling
he aint ready day dreaming like he's found the meaning
the towers rise above my head and loom over me
and flowers raise their little heads like 'how u doing B?'
in these days, in this rat race, the paper chase
this crazy maze, folks and their crazy ways
the strong and the weak, the meek
episodes of life on repeat
a man bouncing on a next mans beat!
plus all this information we keep
the sun rises people just can't sleep
boy its deep . . . yo its deep

like soldiers all scaling over city walls
we embrace the night of big city life . . . ooooh
like soldiers all running down city halls
to sirens flashing lights
there just might be a fight . . .
but its gonna be alright

day n night i been running
running since i was a little child
running running running running all my life
open up and let me in

open up and let me in

let me in somebody open up, come on

open up and let me in

i'm a man on the run
you know just what i am
yeah just a man on the run
running out of places
you gotta open up and let me in

I been running all my life
running since i was a little child
day n night i been running, running
running running running running all my life
