Erick Rush

Runnin' (feat. Nolan Ryan) Lyrics

[Hook: Erick Rush]

I don't know what I'm running for

All I know is I been running long

I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running away

I don't know what I'm running for

All I know is I been running Lord

I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running away



[Verse 1: Erick Rush]

I don't know what I'm running for

I never been the type to run before

But something got me feeling groggy

My mind been stressing and I can't let them see me walking

Cause he's running all day, he's holding all the way

He said I thought you wanted greatness, are you prepared to take it?

Shit, good question

I mean I don't have all the answers all I know is I ain't going through another depression

It'll be a couple years before another confession

There's nothing much to say I'm just making assessments

Seen Pops slave away in the land of the free for pennies and thought there had to be another direction

Money's precious and debt collectors will pressure you for it

Imagine what they'd do if they could measure you for it

Just look at what they've done tryna mess with your happiness

And you niggas are sitting there having it

But I'ma be running



[Hook: Erick Rush]

I don't know what I'm running for

All I know is I been running long

I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running away

I don't know what I'm running for

All I know is I been running Lord

I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running away



[Bridge: Erick Rush]

I'm running away

Oh, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running away



[Verse 2: Erick Rush]

I'm still running

I don't know who to trust

Are they all tryna steal from me

They tryna pressure me for a hit while I'm still buzzing

But me I feel nothing

A king without a crown but my crown is still coming don't worry

I say that to myself when I'm worried

I put mantras in my verses then repeat the recordings

I'm missing meditations and my spirit is hurting

I'm still in here searching, tryna get a feel if it's worth it I guess

I guess I'll really never know for certain

I just believe it, I'm grinding I'm put work in

If nothing else it'll make me a better person

This poetry kept me from feeling worthless

I'm ten toes down this is more than a feat

I still sneak away to write rhymes in discreet

It's always a perfect picture when the canvas is me

But it don't amount to nothing unless my family can eat

[Hook: Erick Rush]

I don't know what I'm running for

All I know is I been running long

I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running away

I don't know what I'm running for

All I know is I been running Lord

I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running away



[Verse 3: Nolan Ryan]

See, Pinocchio told lies and that's what kept him from it

I tell the truth, I'm still running

Looking for something that's out there

All along it was right here

I'm stubborn I'm running I'm in hot pursuit

Did it all for you

Momma I got ‘spect for you



[Hook: Erick Rush]

I don't know what I'm running for

All I know is I been running long

I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running away

I don't know what I'm running for

All I know is I been running Lord

I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, I'm running away
