| I’m running with it
|
| Like an Olympic
|
| Torch and I’m gonna get it
|
| Until I finish
|
| Tell 'em go mind their fucking business
|
| Just another kid
|
| From an underprivileged upbringing
|
| Just bitching about the start I got in life
|
| 'Cause I want something different
|
| Put my best foot forward
|
| Don’t ever cut corners
|
| Or get exhausted
|
| Just trying to be at my best
|
| So he don’t wanna mess
|
| So it never gets awkward
|
| Every mistake is just a story to tell
|
| Or just another life lesson that you taught to yourself
|
| It’s just water off a duck’s back
|
| Ain’t shit but a drop in the ocean
|
| Watching them swapping their soul for that pot full of gold
|
| Until they find that it’s not what they hoped it was
|
| Running with it 'til my feet ache
|
| I ain’t worried about the he say, she say
|
| Let them pass it on like they’re running the relay
|
| 'Cause we split cash like we won in a sweepstake
|
| I’ve been grinding, this is not luck
|
| Those other guys should pull their socks up
|
| Not implying that they’re not good
|
| They’re alright but they’re just not us
|
| Go take a rest, I don’t have to
|
| What about your asthma?
|
| Got nitro cans in my Nikes, I go faster
|
| The white Mo Farah
|
| Run myself into the ground, I keep going
|
| Run until there’s holes in my socks and my feet are swollen
|
| Run myself into the ground, I keep going (Keep going, keep going, keep going)
|
| Never take a second to look back at what I’ve done
|
| I don’t wanna catch a glimpse of what I’m running from
|
| Always try to sneak up, glad I’m on my toes
|
| Running down my soul, I run until I find some way that I can go
|
| Running back and forwards, tryna stay on my toes
|
| Piggy in the middle, tripping up on my lace and I fall
|
| With my face on the floor,
|
| No money in it so it’s the same as before
|
| Fans don’t wanna pay anymore
|
| Chose the wrong decade to be born in
|
| But I’m running with it anyway, try keep up
|
| Never see me with my feet up, make them eat dust
|
| I’m doomed if I don’t make it out
|
| I’m looking down like «Feet, don’t fail me now»
|
| Feeling like Roadrunner with the Wild Coyote
|
| On my trail, legs moving, the light devotes me
|
| I ain’t lazy like the rest of them
|
| I’ll leave them out like they’re running on wet cement
|
| I stay one step ahead on the run like a headless chicken
|
| And they’re way behind
|
| Having them in a matter of seconds, they get left in the distance,
|
| I wave goodbye
|
| Go get in your own lane
|
| I’m Michael Johnson running in my gold chain
|
| Yeah these fools wanna be on top
|
| But tell them they’re not
|
| And never get knocked off your pedestal
|
| No prizes for second place, survival of the fittest
|
| If I didn’t have to do no piss test then I would’ve been in the Olympics
|
| Running rings around them, I don’t see no competition
|
| It’s like my opposition are only here to watch me winning
|
| Run myself into the ground, I keep going
|
| Run until there’s holes in my socks and my feet are swollen
|
| Run myself into the ground, I keep going (Keep going, keep going, keep going)
|
| Never take a second to look back at what I’ve done
|
| I don’t wanna catch a glimpse of what I’m running from
|
| Always try to sneak up, glad I’m on my toes
|
| Running down my soul, I run until I find some way that I can go |
