Running
by Aurion
*Intro*
Young Jay cooked this one!
Yeah…
Mmm… yeah, yeah…
*Verse 1*
I came up from the bottom, they ain't believe in me
I was starvin', now I’m eatin', look who they came to see
I had nights with no lights, just prayin’ for some peace
Heart cold, but I smile, ain't showin’ what's underneath
Mama cryin', rent due, I felt like I was cursed
Had to carry all this pain, still put my people first
Lost bro to the streets, I still hear his words
He told me, "Make it out, don’t end up in that hearse"
*Chorus*
I been runnin’ from my demons in the nighttime
Hopin' God still hear me when I cry
Tryna turn all this pain into a lifeline
But I still feel the rain in my hindsight
Yeah, I carry all this weight, but I still climb
Tryna heal in a world that don't feel right
They don't know what it took just to still try
I’m just hopin’ I survive…
*Verse 2*
A couple scars, but I'm here, that's a blessing
Took some L's, made 'em lessons, no more stressin'
Fake love, I can feel when it's pressin'
Cut 'em off, no regrets, that's progression
Still ridin’ with my pain in the rearview
Talk to God every night like, "I hear you"
Told my dawgs, "When I shine, y’all gon’ shine too"
Now they postin’ from the 'jects like we made it through
*Chorus*
I been runnin’ from my demons in the nighttime
Hopin' God still hear me when I cry
Tryna turn all this pain into a lifeline
But I still feel the rain in my hindsight
Yeah, I carry all this weight, but I still climb
Tryna heal in a world that don't feel right
They don't know what it took just to still try
I’m just hopin’ I survive…
*Outro*
Yeah…
I’m just hopin’ I survive…
Mmm… Young Jay cooked this one…
