to run

If there was a place to run Don't you think we'd all go? It's hard to escape When life seems furlough If it was easy Everyone would do it So I suggest, you say screw it If I found a place to run Would you drop everything and come? If I took a left turn When I should've turned right Would you call me a rebel? I'm just a young boy Tryna skip a pebble Tryna solve a puzzle With no notes With no hope Used to hang us by the rope Then caught us smoking dope Pushing hard like an envelope How they expect us to cope? When I was asked I politely said no I said no I said no How can I run when I haven't even started I hate when people say the word retarded When I heard the news, I darted I rarely watch the news Cuz it mess with my brain Always using young man or young woman Without giving names What about ties? What about pride? Dancing to stay in stride There's really nowhere to hide The rules you must abide The tools will make you feel alive That's for certain I tell you that much I run and I run I find myself and who I have become How come, when I run The finish line gets further even further I run and I run I find myself and who I have become How come, when I run The finish line gets further even further Alright, I'm running with my head down Man down, stand down Floating on the track like imma camp out Stand out Beat around the bush But my footsteps too loud Ain't got no time for no hand outs I'm my own man now Yeah, I'm my own man now Okay, I'm steady, bracing To win, this year I'm always facing, a challenge, or two Each year Standing by my car maybe thinking I should take off and steer Maybe I should take off and steer
