100 years, 2000 miles
To you I'd run through day and night
We've got to finish what we started
We've got a lot to rescue, darling
My shirt is torn, the shoes are worn
My birth's been drawn but still I'm strong
I feel like I'm a force of nature
But guess who made you my creator
Trying stop a river when it wants to rise
Trying to stop a blaze off a burning fire
I'm a hurricane, it ain't stopping
No no no
Oh, and I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep coming back for more, no no
Keep running, I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep coming back for more, no
I've got to tell you
Know I've crossed the time, I've crossed through time
And giving up never crossed my mind
I feel like I'm a force of nature
But guess who made you my creator
Trying stop a river when it wants to rise
Trying to stop a blaze off a burning fire
I'm a hurricane, it ain't stopping
No no no
Oh, and I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep coming back for more, no no
Keep running, I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep coming back for more, no
Yeah, I keep
Trying stop a river when it wants to rise
Trying to stop a blaze off a burning fire
I'm a hurricane, it ain't stopping
No no no
Oh, and I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep coming
Keep running, I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep coming
And I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep coming back for more, no no
Keep running, I keep
Keep running, I keep
Keep coming back for more, no
