On the Run Lyrics by Jack Rootes

Prelude to Bedroom Rap

0

[Intro]

Oooh yeah...

[Hook]

Got some alcohol in my blood
Our rivals dead in the trunk
Only need my girl and my gun

The barrel's leakin' smoke
Trouble follows where we go
So we're out here, all alone, on the run

[Verse 1 - sung]

Got some bottles in the backseat
Still runnin' like an athlete
By my side's only you
Runnin' from the folks in blue
Could've had a normal life instead
We're livin' life on the edge
Ridin' 'round from place to place
Your smeered lipstick on my face

Yeah, our ridе's only just begun
Still taste your lips on my tongue
If thеy start to catch up, then we dash
Movin' forward, never lookin' back
In each other, only we trust
Leavin' everyone else in the dust
Runnin' from those that wanna break us
Goin' wherever the road may take us

[Hook]

[Verse 2 - rapped]

I've got a car and you're down to ride
A pair of outlaws, tryin' to survive
Armed with a pair of Smith and Wessons
If they won't learn, then we'll teach 'em a lesson!
And we don't need any guidance
Makin' runs for it whenever we hear sirens
But no matter what, we never break away
Makin' love in the back of our Chevrolet

Both smokin' and drinkin' on our breathers
Young, Wild & Free like Snoop and Wiz Khalifa!
And we'll just keep on runnin', 'till the world ends
2020 Bonnie and Clyde, me and my girlfriend
We both mean it whenever we say 'I love you'
We play the bad guys, because it's fun to
When the heroes come, that's when we're headin' out
'Till death do us part, like some wedding vows

[Hook]
