8 Mile More Music movie - Runnin lyrics
rate me<br>
Can't keep runnin' away..... <br>
<br>
(Fat Lip)<br>
I must admit on some occasions I went out like a punk<br>
and a chump or a sucka or something to that effect<br>
Respect I used to never get it when all I got was upset<br>
when niggas used to be like "What's up fool!" and tried<br>
to sweat a nigga like the Lip for no reason at all I can<br>
recall crip niggas throwin' "c" in my face down the hall<br>
I'm kickin' it in the back of the school eatin' chicken at<br>
three wonderin' why is everybody always pickin' on me<br>
I tried to talk and tell them chill I did nothing to deserve<br>
this But when it didn't work I wasn't scared just real<br>
nervous and unprepared to deal with scrappin' no doubt<br>
cuz my pappy never told me how to knock a nigga out<br>
But now in 95 I must survive as a man on my own Fuck<br>
around with Fat Lip yes ya get blown I'm not tryin' to show<br>
no macho is shown but when it's on, if it's on, then it's on! <br>
<br>
Can't keep runnin' away..... <br>
<br>
(Slim Kid3)<br>
There comes a time in every man's life when he's gotta<br>
handle shit up on his own Can't depend on friends to<br>
help you in a squeeze, please they got problems of their<br>
own Down for the count on seven chicken shits don't<br>
get to heaven til they faced these fears in these fear<br>
zones Used to get jacked back in high school I played<br>
it cool just so some real shit won't get full blown Being<br>
where I'm from they let the smoke come quicker than an<br>
evil red-neck could lynch a helpless colored figure And<br>
as a victim I invented low-key til the keyhole itself got<br>
lower than me So I stood up and let my free form form<br>
free Said I'm gonna get some before their knockin' out<br>
me I don't sweat it I let the bullshit blow in the breeze<br>
In other words just freeze <br>
<br>
<br>
Can't keep runnin' away..... <br>
<br>
(Knumbskull #1)<br>
It's 1995 now that I'm older stress weighs on my shoulders<br>
heavy as boulders but I told y'all til the day that I die I<br>
still will be a soldier and that's all I told ya and that's all<br>
I showed ya and all this calamity is rippin my sanity Can<br>
it be I'm a celebrity whose on the brink of insanity Now<br>
don't be wishin' of switchin' any positions with me cuz<br>
when you in my position, it ain't never easy to do any<br>
type of maintaining cuz all this gaming and famin' from<br>
entertainin' is hella straining to the brain and.. But I can't<br>
keep runnin I just gotta keep keen and cunnin' <br>
<br>
Can't keep runnin' away.....<br>
Ya can't keep runnin' away..... <br>
<br>
