Run, Boy, Run Songtext
von Ihor Lavrenenko

They told me slow down but I chase the horizon
Setbacks became fuel for my rising
Feet hit the pavement heart wild as a lion
No excuses no tears ain′t no time for crying
I remember broke couldn't afford the basics
Now I′m running toward the throne watch me take it
Every scar on my soul homie I don't fake it
Life threw me in the fire but the fire couldn't break it
Mama said keep your head up when the road gets rough
Pops said stand like a man when the going gets tough
So I lace up my sneakers hit the ground with a rush
Running toward my destiny ain′t nobody hold me up

They want me to quit but I won′t stop
Started from the bottom now I'm heading to the top
Every doubt they planted watch me pull from the root
Run boy run yeah I′m living proof


Run boy run you will not hide
Face the storm head-on arms open wide
Run boy run through the darkest night
Chase the sun till you catch that morning light
Run boy run you will not hide
Every fear you're feeling leave it all behind
Run boy run this is your time
The finish line is waiting keep that dream in sight

Shackled by the shadows trapped inside my mind
Broke through the ceiling left the chains behind
Sprinting through the city where the stars align
Every step that I take is a victory sign
Used to think I was nothing just a face in the crowd
Now I′m screaming at the summit voice ringing loud
Grandma praying for me watching from the clouds
Running for my family gotta make them proud

They want me to quit but I won't stop
Started from the bottom now I′m heading to the top
Every doubt they planted watch me pull from the root
Run boy run yeah I'm living proof


Run boy run you will not hide
Face the storm head-on arms open wide
Run boy run through the darkest night
Chase the sun till you catch that morning light
Run boy run you will not hide
Every fear you're feeling leave it all behind
Run boy run this is your time
The finish line is waiting keep that dream in sight
