Runnin', runnin'
Lookin' for that love I once knew
Runnin', I'm runnin'
Tryin' to find my way back to you
I been runnin' since understandin', confiscated my globe
Stutterin' since expression, stole the key to my soul
Strugglin' since victory presumed control
Battlin' since the truth infiltrated my mold
Seekin' to find a life in invisible hold
Travelin' down a path of a difficult road
Runnin' without a clue of bein' left astray
Swearin' I'm gettin' closer but really further away
Runnin', runnin'
Lookin' for that love I once knew
Runnin', I'm runnin'
Tryin' to find my way back to you
Don't you sometimes sit back and look at yourself
Examine things in life you hate but you've become get sick of yourself
The very images, you claim lack worth
Then with uncontrolled labor pains them very images, you gave birth
This topic got me ceilin' walkin'
I'm so beside myself, I'm lookin' at me like
I'm someone else and I don't feel I'm talkin'
I'm tryin' to spit it best I can atcha
Regain your focus and capture attention grabbers
That keep you from runnin'
Runnin'
Lookin' for you said, I'm runnin'
Runnin'
Lookin' for you said, I'm runnin'
In desilate times, I wrestle at times
Feelin' so neglected at times, rejected at times
Hard to try to get out my mind, hold to the soul
Believin' that it's gonna be fine, he's in control
Lettin' go the walk in the know, forgettin' the how
Strong enough to wait for the when to weaken the now
Put aside the question of why, this is allowed
Runnin' to the back of the line
Lookin' for mine, lookin' for mine, lookin' for mine
Lookin', lookin'
Lookin' for that love I once knew
Runnin', I'm runnin'
Tryin' to find my way back to you
If dead men tell no tales
Yo, how do you account for the platinum rappers
With millions of record sales?
Then tell me, I ain't good 'cuz my record fails
With a standard that's set to first-quarter sales
The truth shall prevail, if I let you dictate it life would be stale
But I follow my Lord, who's been proven with the scars and nails
Everybody busy funnin', number one stunnin'
What else you get from yo mama, nothin' but heartache from all the runnin'
Runnin'
My desires lead me right to you
The very thing that has me runnin'
Back to you, runnin' runnin'
Runnin'
My desires lead me right to you
The very thing that has me runnin'
Back to you, runnin' runnin'
Runnin'
Lookin' for you said, I'm runnin'
Runnin'
Lookin' for you said, I'm runnin'
Tryin' to find my way back to you
Lookin', lookin'
Lookin' for that love I once knew
Runnin', I'm runnin'
Tryin' to find my way back to you
