I was taught that as a boy you fear no man
Feel like I've been running my whole life and I know that
Worried bout the labels on my feet but it don't
Matter ironically we all gonna end up with toe tags
So I'm a kick it with my tribe word to Phife Dawg
Treat every moment like the one I'm alive for
And know that we're alive for the moments we'd die for
After all the benders made me feel like a cyborg
I spread my wings then I turned to the bar fly
Starting reading Luke then I turned from the dark side
Dodging fat lips while I was chasing the far side
Made me wanna Bolt like Usain on the start line
I can feel my body rioting
It's like it knows that I have been
Running my whole life
No more practise runs like Iverson
Cause boi I know that I have been
Running my whole life
I AIN'T RUNNIN' NO MORE
I'm saying tho
I ain't RUNNIN' I ain't RUNNIN' no more
It took an ER to turn a sob story to a sob(ER) story
Was chasing highs and not surprised that the lows adored me
At 25 I passed out on a treadmill
Doctor told me my heart was going mental
Literally but figuratively too
I was like "you literally sound like Biggie my dude
But tell me it isn't true,
Tell me it's just a bad dream fuelled
By the alcohol, the codeine, the caffeine"
Probably has a lot to do with what I have adopted
Top drawer of pain pills, closet alcoholic
I've been long distance jogging like I'm running from my
Problems Said enough of being the
Hunted I'm the hunter like S Thompson
When I lay my head tonight man, Freddie's got it coming
No more medication stunting every prayer I said bout crushing
All the fear and anxiety, clearly so quietly is gripping society
I'm ending, I'ma fight this beast
