Running

I’ve been running on empty I’ve been running on hope I’ve been running towards goals I’ve been running just to cope I’ve been running on empty I’ve been running on hope I’ve been running towards goals I’ve been running just to cope Looking at the rap game I wonder if its pay to play if you get on quick then you're liable to fade away Mr reliable I’m focused on the day-to-day And you know what? I think I’ll always stay this way And you know what? I’ve been this way since a youth Always ten steps ahead even when I’m in the booth You out picking apples and you thinking about the fruit Me I’m out about picking apples and I’m thinking about the juice Chasing down these goals like a labrador In the lab at 4, I’m chasing what you hoping for Cause a lotta rappers should swap partying for rapping more But you keep doing you cause you’re leaving me an open door Been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running on empty I’ve been running on hope I’ve been running towards goals I’ve been running just to cope I’ve been running on empty I’ve been running on hope I’ve been running towards goals I’ve been running just to cope Lined up for the steeplechase I wanna reach the masses In a home studio call me Homer with classics Work ethic matches my ambition so I practice Fliping sampling daily like I’m doing gymnastics Some biles backflip This the flow that it’s light a fire that’s lits Nobody can match this Me against me until the end of time Like a high school dance I’m just trying to grind Holding onto that feeling that I had when I was young Every day I chased the passion didn’t matter if I won Ever notice little kids they always on a run So wrapped up in the present that they always having fun Been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running I’ve been running on empty I’ve been running on hope I’ve been running towards goals I’ve been running just to cope I’ve been running on empty I’ve been running on hope I’ve been running towards goals I’ve been running just to cope
