Running - Ruben

He was a loser

Had a lot less than the others at school

His dad was a user

And mommy was scared of the things she could lose

So she worked the night shift

Talking to guys with

All that dirty money, but got caught up in the hype, then

She started shooting

But under poison she knew what to do

Mama said run run run run run

It isn’t safe, this is not your home

Boy you gotta run run run run run

Gonna be tough being on your own

But don’t stop running

You’re gonna feel the fire underneath your feet

But don’t stop running

You can take the fight, you can take the heat

When it’s harder just believe

I’m every breath you breathe

So don’t stop running

Don’t stop running

I hope you run further than me

He took the night train

And didn’t get off til the end of the track

He went the right way

But all of the voices were holding him back

Saying you don’t deserve this

You know you’re worthless

Find a couple ways you can numb all the hurting

But he knew the highway

Was only a road leading back to the past

Remember mama said run run run run run

It isn’t safe, This is not your home

Boy you gotta run run run run run

Gonna be tough being on your own

But don’t stop running

You’re gonna feel the fire underneath your feet

But don’t stop running

You can take the fight, you can take the heat

When it’s harder just believe

I’m every breath you breathe

So don’t stop running

Don’t stop running

I hope you run further than me

I hope you run further than me

I hope you run further than me

I hope you run further than me
