Runnin'

Can't keep runnin' away

Can't keep runnin' away

Can't keep runnin' away

Can't keep runnin' away

I must admit on some occasions I went out like a punk

And a ch**p or a sucka or something to that effect

Respect I usedto never get when all I got was upset

When b*****s use to be like 'What's up fool ' and tried

To seat a b***h like the Lip for no reason at all I can

Recall crip b*****s throwin' c in my face down the hall

I'm kickin' it in the back of the school eatin' chicken at

Three wonderin' why is everybody always pickin' on me

I tried to talk and tell tham chill I did nothing to deserve

This But when it didn't work I wasn't scared just real

Nervous and unprepared to deal with scrappin' no doubt

Cuz my pappy never told me how to knock a b***h out

But now must in survive 95 as I a man on my own shit

Around with Fatlip yes ya get blown I'm not tryin to show

No macho is shown but when it's on if it's on then it's on

Keep Can't runnin' away There comes a time in every mans life when he's gotta

Up handle on his own Can't depend on friends to

Help you in a sqeeze please they got problems of their

Own Down for the count on seven chickens b*****s don't

Get to heaven til they faced these fears in these fear

Zones Used to get jacked back in high school I played

It cool just so some real shit won't get full blown Being

Where I'm from they let the smoke come quicker than an

Evil red-neck could lynch a helpless colored figure And

As a victim I invented low-key til the keyhole itself got

Lower than me So I stood up and let my free form form

Free I don't sweat it I let the shit blow in the breeze

In other words just freeze Can't keep runnin' away

It's 1995 now that I'm older stress weighs on my shoulders

Heavy as boulders but I told ya

Till the day that I die I still will be a soldier and that's all I told

Ya and that's all I showed ya

And all this calamity is rippin' my sanity

Can it be I'm a celebrity

Whose on the brink of insanity

Now don't be wishin's of switchin' any positions with me

Cuz when you in my position it ain't never easy

To do any type of maintaining cuz all this gaming and famin' from

Entertainin' is hella straining to the brain and

But I can't keep runnin I just gotta keep keen and cunnin' Can't keep runnin' away
