RUN Lyrics by KWAYE

Learning To Swim

2020

[Intro]
Ooh Ooh Ooh

[Verse 1]
Livin' by the gun
You gotta put your best foot forward
She told her son
If you wanna see your daughter

[Pre-Chorus]
You better stay alive
Don't get caught in the crossfire
But it's do or die and the boy can't stay on the sidelines
He lives for the city
Might try but he won't leave
White lines in the concrete jungle

[Chorus]
You better run, run, run
You better run, run, run

[Verse 2]
Livin' by the gun
A bullet could take away your mornin'
She told her son
I better not hear your angel calling

[Pre-Chorus]
Long days, cold nights
Right place, wrong time
Downtown like frontlines
Loyalty sparking love crimes
Still got love for the city
That's my community
White lines in the concrete jungle

[Chorus]
You better run, run, run
You better run, run, run

[Bridge]
It's amazing how we don't go where
The grass is greener
The roots lay there
The roots lay there
The roots lay there

[Chorus]
You better run, run, run
You better run, run, run
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
