8 Mile movie - 8 Mile Runnin lyrics
rate me<br>
Yeah Renegades is back and the beat is sick,<br>
Jay Z, Freeway, 8 Miles,<br>
let's go...<br>
<br>
Verse 1<br>
8 miles and running, got my 7 album droppin,<br>
And my 8 album coming,<br>
Feedin a thousand growling stomachs,<br>
But I could rewind the counter ta back, back,<br>
When it was now or nothing,<br>
People said I would amount to nothing,<br>
That I had time for nothing,<br>
Said I wasn't from the valers<br>
or the sellers by your gunman,<br>
I can see the folks now he got what he had coming,<br>
Now that my 8th album's coming,<br>
Everybody smiling wanting something,<br>
claiming that they done something for em,<br>
got Jay Z and pom poms in they whole uniforms,<br>
claiming they be running and telling everybody like Martin Lawrence,<br>
about how hot my rap performace was before I was who I was,<br>
claimin that they threw it up before I threw it up, you what..<br>
Where was you before I blew this up,<br>
I didn't see you in the courtroom when everyone was suein us,<br>
I didn't see you in all black when everybody was suitin up,<br>
back on the block, kickin it in and it was no you with us,<br>
<br>
<br>
CHORUS<br>
8 miles and running, got my 7 album droppin,<br>
and my 8 album coming,<br>
feedin a thousand growling stomachs, freaks...<br>
6 miles and running got my fist straight poppin,<br>
and my first album coming feedin 20 promises I made<br>
<br>
(Repeat)<br>
<br>
Verse 2<br>
<br>
6 miles and running in the pontiak,<br>
6 thousand 86 trans mic shift,<br>
while the engine run,<br>
anyone turn around<br>
and give me one more chance,<br>
let em smoke and scream em one more grams,<br>
so i'm a bring them, homie, son and my pop,<br>

and cops watch every step, 6 miles and running<br>
dodge in every trap, the rap ginger bread man,<br>
cherish every precious breath, stat pick a second gat<br>

<br>
CHORUS<br>
<br>
Verse 3<br>
<br>
Back when nobody would find me a talent,<br>
Nobody would sign me, nobody believed in me,<br>
Nobody but mommy blindly, but how could she deny me,<br>
Me being the youngest friend to come up out of her,<br>
tell me, she got every love for me,<br>
when niggas would worn me the industry shun me,<br>
that's why I'm taking all the industries money,<br>
revenge is sweet honey, we run this,<br>
young is the illest, free is the future,<br>
beans and bleekers right now,<br>
we can see our 8 miles nigga...<br>
<br>
CHORUS<br>
