Lyrics:

im runnin
not running away
promise i'll be back for you
but im grinding just to pave us a way,
a way to better days
when we can leave this place
dont make this all for nothing
i'll keep runnin

Verse 1:

Hey Mommy
you getting older everyday
so am i
and im trying to really get paid
so i can getchu a house
put turn tables inside
so you can make a mixtape
whenever you feel like
go and make a mixtape

do what you want
no more working with jerks
getting on ya nerves
dealing with working a 2nd or a 3rd
job

whats going on now
i cant be around
it makes me lose focus
whenever im around
all of the stress and drama you encounter
stresses me also
i cant deal witcha problems

i know i should
but i cant thats why i stay away
when you call
i ignore
cause im out getting paid

saving money for what i hope is a better day
followed by better days then i'll stay
until then im a keep runnin
im turning my back on you
until i succeed and make it
im a keep running

(Hook)

im runnin
not running away
promise i'll be back for you
but im grinding just to pave us a way,
a way to better days
when we can leave this place
dont make this all for nothing
i'll keep runnin

Verse 2:

Hey Daddy,
i just want to state this sentance
we live in the same house but still so distant
for instance
i walk in
you there chillin
you dont say nothing
just hurting my feelings
you call my phone asking where im at
nigga i aint home
im out selling crack
bagged weed and all
writing everyday
working on these songs
chilling with some niggas i aint even know that long
feeling we closer then me and you are

yea you got problems
i understand
im a do what i do and help
soon as i can
in the mean time
dont talk man
im a continue being the loser fuck up
that you and mommy think i am
and dont try to justify
why i feel what i feel
this is how it is nigga
im a keep it real
im turning my back on you
until i succeed and make it
im running from you and wont stop
till i make it

(Hook)

im runnin
not running away
promise i'll be back for you
but im grinding just to pave us a way,
a way to better days
when we can leave this place
dont make this all for nothing
i'll keep runnin

bridge:

Look yall the breath that i breathe
the words that i speak
the sight that i see
the thoughts that i think
the blood in my veins
lyrics in my rhymes
controller of my heart
the reason im a alive

sounds mest up
leaving you to deal
wit problems that you have alone
im a keep it real
im a son and a brother always but listen when i say
until i make im sorry
im runnin away / Verse 3:

What up big brother
its ya lil brother
im ya big brother
butchu bigger mahfucka

i dont call and when you hit me up i say im busy
i feel bad cause im gone and i know you miss me

please just listen
im a say it once
(Hey fat ass)
nah im playing but for real

the deal wit me is
im trying to be the one
thats gonna be the one
to come and save the family

the one that make people bite they tongue cause they see me
Justin
known as the fuck up
make it see
you learn from school
its important
believe it
i aint do it cause of music
i felt i aint need it
but look
im doing things the hard way "Runnin"
i dont wantchu to do what the song say
i love you
just know i aint running from you
tho im runnin
you the reason
yea im runnin for you

(Hook)

im runnin
not running away
promise i'll be back for you
but im grinding just to pave us a way,
a way to better days
when we can leave this place
dont make this all for nothing
i'll keep runnin
