Running Away

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I wanna smoke till I can't wake up

Self-medicate when I light that paper (Paper)

I'm less scared with a cloud of vapor

Get so high I tell demons: See you later

You lose yourself, you lose your way

They lie to you, you take the bait

Just another way to take the pain

Life's tough, I'm hopin' it'll fade

Guess I'll never learn to take the blame

I'm always runnin' away

I'm always runnin' away, away, away from me

I'm always runnin' away, ah

I'm always runnin' away, away, away from me

I'm always runnin' away

I made one too many bad decisions

Head was full of other wrong opinions

And you don't believe in the song you've been singin'

It's time to get back to you in the beginnin'

I was just chillin', I was just livin'

Buildin' a zoo in my bedroom with Dylan

I was just rappin' as human

I'm killin' even when they told me to stick to the singin'

You lose yourself, you lose your way

They lie to you, you take the bait

Just another way to take the pain

Life's tough, I'm hopin' it'll fade

Guess I'll never learn to take the blame

I'm always runnin' away

I'm always runnin' away, away, away from me

I'm always runnin' away, ah

I'm always runnin' away, away, away from me

I'm always runnin' away

I'm runnin'

I'm runnin'

Yeah

I'm runnin'

I'm always runnin' away

I'm always runnin' away, away, away from me

I'm always runnin' away, ah

I'm always runnin' away, away, away from me

I'm always runnin' away

I'm always runnin'

I'm always runnin'

Yeah

I'm always runnin'

I'm runnin'

I'm always runnin', yeah
