Runnin' Songtext
von David Dallas

I got the new world in my view
On my journey, I pursue
I said I′m running, running for the city
I got the new world in my view
I got the new world in my view
Oh, my journey, I pursue
Lord, I'm running, running for the city
I got the new world in my view

They ain′t got no muscle, no hustle
No backbone, I stand alone
Not tripping, just saying, I'm different
Ain't hanging onto the coat tails of the next man
Passport in my left hand
Thinking that you got next, heck, hope you ain′t holding your breath, man
′Cause I'm out here, I′m hungry


I don't play around, trust me
Ain′t had this much drive since my Honda Civic got rusty
And my girl said she loved me
It's funny, just thinking back
Study hard for that nine to five
Like I thought I′d actually be good with that
I was dreaming, still dreaming, spoil it on me like Willie Beaman

Still performing like Al Pacino, Instagram in tuxedos
With my peoples, we growing up 'stead of seeing others slowing up
Tint squad, we throwing up, every time that we showing up

Get it while I'm living
All I ever hear′s the clock tick, tick, ticking
So I′m 'bout my business
And I′m running, I'm running
I′m running with them, yeah
They don't wanna give it up
We gon′ make it out

Get it while I'm living
All I ever hear's the clock tick, tick, ticking
So I′m ′bout my business
And I'm running, I′m running
I'm running with them, yeah
They don′t wanna give it up
We gon' make it out


It don′t get no greater, feel like I'm on fire
Feel like I'm Johnny Storm, feel like I′m volatile
Explosive, get close enough to notice
Your girl act outta character when she see me approaching
Ain′t poaching, I'm just saying it′s nothing
You punching above your weight
I'm something she ain′t seen, no substitute in that A-Team

That's BA Baracus, that BS, that whackness
Get no play in my axis, make ′em jump like AJ Hackett
Guarantee you, in these boots they couldn't walk one mile
I really need to go and hang it up like a drunk dial
So behind the times, they should probably rock a sun dial

Shattering their dreams, I could make Big Pun smile
Music from the soul, don't need them to help me
If they fiending for the flash, they should take another selfie
Said I′m running, I′m running like Mo Farah, so dapper
Swear the whole world could go against me, it don't matter, man

Get it while I′m living
All I ever hear's the clock tick, tick, ticking
So I′m 'bout my business
And I′m running, I'm running
I'm running with them, yeah
They don′t wanna give it up
We gon′ make it out

Get it while I'm living
All I ever hear′s the clock tick, tick, ticking
So I'm ′bout my business
And I'm running, I′m running
I'm running with them, yeah
They don't wanna give it up
We gon′ make it out

I′m on the chase
(Won't wait another day)
Plans falling into place
(We ain′t got much to lose)
I'm on the chase
(Won′t wait another day)
Plans falling into place
(We ain't got much to lose)

Get it while I′m living
All I ever hear's the clock tick, tick, ticking
So I'm ′bout my business
And I′m running, I'm running
I′m running with them, yeah
They don't wanna give it up
We gon′ make it out

Get it while I'm living
All I ever hear′s the clock tick, tick, ticking
So I'm 'bout my business
And I′m running, I′m running
I'm running with them, yeah
They don′t wanna give it up
We gon' make it out
