The Run Lyrics by VANguard

2014

[Top Gun Sample: Val Kilmer]
I don't like you because you're dangerous
[Tom Cruise]
That's right! Ice...man. I am dangerous

[Hook: VANguard]
Run for your life
Run for your life
Got nowhere to go
Nowhere to hide
The darkness is cold
We wild at night
Feeling a soul
Losing my sight 2x

[Verse 1]
5 shots burn
But these bullets are my bliss
Pleasure to pull the trigger
Every time I even think of it
Chips on both shoulders
I could stack them up, idiom
So I could roll the dice
This gamble's my penicillin
Money paper planes
They all wanna stay fly
I'm pretty down to earth
But I never flew a kite
Fuck I'm still young
I wanna live a long life
But these days
I'm prone to make my own green light
I'm with my friends, or enemies
Look at these old girls, use to be
Look at these parents, never me
Working at a desk job
Living off a 9 to 3
Look at their girlfriends like jealousy
The more that I progress
I see that life isn't meant for me
These nights, they get ot be lonely
But I wake up, good morning (mourning)

[Chorus]
Run for your life
Run for your life
Got nowhere to go
Nowhere to hide
The darkness is cold
We wild at night
Feeling a soul
Losing my sight 2x

[Verse 2]
My height is XXL
But I don't want the freshman list
I want Forbes' 30 under 30 bitch
Crazy stupid love all I feel
As I write to this
No matter what they say
That is what this is
I know who I was
And now I am passionate
I hate to say cheers
With these dudes that are passionless
Cease to be a drone
Only lead the pack like Optimus
Oversee these obstacles
And try to be an optimist

[Bridge: Optimus Prime from Tranformers: Dark of the Moon]
We will kill them all!

VANguard, I protect me
On guard catch them off guard
I impede
I gotta flip the script
IMDB
Sometimes I really miss her
And I hope it's all a dream
Will I live a good life
Will I die Bruce Lee
Things that come across
During thoughts of you and me
I can't do the math
No time to count sheep
I'm fencing with these demons
When these others fall asleep

[Chorus]
Run for your life
Run for your life
Got nowhere to go
Nowhere to hide
The darkness is cold
We wild at night
Feeling a soul
Losing my sight 3x
