Runnin' Away - The Natural

now she dont wanna wake up for the day

so much on her mind but she dont got nothin to say

and she feelin like the whole world is comin of age

but she just sit back feelin like she rustin away

but i, i, i

I wanna get that feeling of flying

and I know each and every morning I rise

I gotta put that hurt to the side

when i look in ya eyes

and i dont know what the world is comin to

but im damn sure that we gon make it

we gon make it

and i dont know why u look to the ground

look in that mirror, shawty u so sacred

just reach high, put ur hands to the sky

gotta burst thru that ceiling, cuz u know we gon fly

and stop runnin away

stop runnin away

stop runnin away

cold heart, cold shoulder, live in a cold world

cant even feel the warmth in a hug from her lil girl

family is trippin, dont nobody listen

said ud be the same way if u was in my position

done wishin, hopes just a fallacy

you say it could be, but it aint boutta be

they say struggles supposed to bring the best outta me

but im just wishin that some1 was proud of me

wish I could fly away, where know one knows me

cares just blow right along with the cold breeze

and all the stars in the sky is equal

to the dreams and the goals that im prone to reach to

no more evil, oh so peaceful

but baby thats a fantasy, that cant be true

i said i know you used to runnin away

but the time to stop running’s today

Though times is hard

they can’t hold me now

and though mind is scarred

they wont slow me down

baby drop that bravado

and learn to live life, like there is no tomorrow

there is no gain when you wallow, so that pain and that sorrow’s

gotta be something you tame, thats the motto

we all victims of circumstance

so know you aint the first, and damn sure aint the last

so while u walk that road, know u a verse in a chapter

of a book written long ago

every once upon a time has a happily ever after

its just makes a better read when the path was a disaster

they say it aint your turn, another day another dollar?

i just say another page to turn

See no matter where you go, you’re problems always waiting for you back at home.

You know?

So you might as well come back and face them.

That’s the only way to

deal with it.

I promise you one thing.

We all gon' make it.
