childish gambino - a runaway lyrics

[verse 1]
i don’t wanna get you down, but there’s some secrets i keep
in the deepest darkest parts of me that i don’t spread around
the truth of the matter is, i’m not well put+together
my brain is like a hurricane, i’m here with the weather
or better yet, a story, and you’re good at storytelling
my mama’s always yellin’, i’m a modern+day magellan
when it came to the directions, i would never really get it
i would hear what they were sayin’, but somehow i’d just forget it
this got me into trouble, especially in school
the seasons change like the colors when you pee inside the pool
and eventually, you’re meant to meet your destiny, right?
when we lived on [brana?] road i would pay every night
i wouldn’t get in a fight, they said i acted too white
one day i snuck inside the class when everyone was outside
got all of the lunch boxes, put them into a bag
p+ssed inside of it, walked outside and put it into the trash
when it was lunchtime, the kids walked in in a straight line
to their cubbies for their yummies but some of them started cryin’
the teachers found the bag of class class of ms. mckearan
they wanted to give it back, but some of them smelled like urine
so they ended up throwin’ ’em out
and said if they ever found out who did it, they would kick that kid out
so i never opened my mouth, i never confessed
it feels good to get this sh+t off my chest
[chorus]
i wanna run away
run away
run away, run away
run away
run away, run away
run away, run away
run away
run away
run away, run away
run away
run away, run away
run away
run away, run away
run away
run away, run away
run away

[verse 2]
third grade, this is where it starts
when uncle willie died due to complications of his heart
and i ain’t really know how to handle that sh+t at all
i spent most of the day with my cousins, playing basketball
my cousins seemed happy, as happy as you hope to get
i remember making comments that were very inapropriate
i wasn’t that i didn’t love him, i miss him a lot
i don’t think my body was ready for the initial shock
of losing someone who was close to you, cherish so intensely
i’d like to take a moment to apologize immensely
the problem is, that with dealing with this kind of fear
i tend to laugh it off, and people think i’m insincere
especially with women, i tend to get bored
then i stop callin’ and writin’ and then they feel so ignored
then they call up their friends and say that he don’t want me no more
now everyone on campus hears the rumor that i’m a wh0re
i used to know this girl named tanika
i used to make arrangements on the weekend so i would get to see her
we’d to go the museum, have a picnic for lunch
i’m sendin’ a text message and sayin’ i miss you much
but one day she call me up and kinda broke my heart
and now it’s hard for me to ever see a relationship start
i have random hookups, but i don’t call ’em again
i maybe wanna chill, but don’t have time for them as a friend
they’re not that interesting, so i end up blowin’ ’em off
not necessarily intentionally, but enough to p+ss ’em off
to the point where i’m not invited to parties, and man
i just wanna say that i’m sorry and
[chorus]
i really wanna run away
run away
run away, run away
run away
run away, run away
run away
run away, run away
run away
run away, run away
run away
run away, run away
run away
run away, run away
run away
run away, run away
run away, run away

[outro]
(yeah)
