skyblew - running in place lyrics
(go) x8
verse 1:
i know a girl who lost it all
the system took her son, labeled her an unfit mom
finding marks on her arm, she cutting herself
plus she feelin’ like she got n-body but herself
so she calls a different man and gives him treasure—
her booty, all for a few minutes of pleasure
hoping that the pain she feels decay
‘cause s-x got her thinking it can take it away
the last boyfriend she had was her son baby-dad
and he dashed ‘cause he don’t want no part of that
so she makes a phone call just to feel that erection
and on top of that, she s-xin’ with no protection
cold tears fillin’ her eyes while she realize
they don’t care about her, it was all lies
and now she runnin’ in place, she don’t know where to go
tryna find hope
chorus (skyblew & sarah kaboom):
they try to run from they problems
hopin’ they can solve ‘em
with no direction
they don’t know where to go
so they just runnin’ in place
tryna fill up that sp-ce
they try to run from they problems
hopin’ they can solve ‘em
with no direction
they don’t know where to go
so they just runnin’ in place
tryna fill up that sp-ce
verse 2:
now let me tell you ‘bout her baby-dad, a addict
not a bit of shame from the drugs he shot in his vein
he thinks, all the trouble he has, see he don’t need those
tryna drown them away puffin’ weed smoke
‘cause he need hope so he sniffs c-ke
’til his nostrils bleed and his lungs choke
you see the son he has he wasn’t ready for
he never met him before, he’s already four
and the girl that he once loved
can’t compare to the substance they call drugs
they called drugs for a reason, they drug him in a hole
that he can’t get out of, his soul’s turning cold
people tryna tell him that he needs help
but he wasn’t hearing it, walking towards death
and now he running in place, he don’t know where to go
tryna find hope
chorus:
they try to run from they problems
hopin’ they can solve ‘em
with no direction
they don’t know where to go
so they just runnin’ in place
tryna fill up that sp-ce
they try to run from they problems
hopin’ they can solve ‘em
with no direction
they don’t know where to go
so they just runnin’ in place
tryna fill up that sp-ce
verse 3 (dasan ahanu):
to the former high school track star still facing hurdles
full of the souls of black people who fought ’til the pressure turned them purple
no do-boys only dope-boys, false-hope-boys
she didn’t fall for one who slang, she fell for eddie kane
a heart is a house condemned when you paying the mortgage in pain
he got a photographic memory ‘cause only snapshots can make him snapback to a time when he fitted
relationship capped, baggage lined up
she figured him like he did it
can’t stand to be bitter so when he do talk sweet, she wit’ it
he let that white girl take her place
her smile neon-signing out some vacancies in her place
he know it won’t work out
she tryin’ to erase her hurt with a workout
treadmill mentality, she just runnin’ in place
she lost custody then lost the composure
he lost his grip on reality when he lost the ability to be sober
she callin’ out ‘baby’ whenever she sees her son’s features in the eyes of the man between her legs
he callin’ the [?] to get rid of the demons in his head
he runnin’ in place trippin’
she lost in a empty embrace slippin’
their son’s cries or the tears in their eyes aren’t any different
