Runnin' Lyrics - Jay Dee

Can't keep runnin' away 

I must admit on some occasions I went out like a punk 

And a chump or a sucker or something to that effect 

Respect I used to never get when all I got was upset 

When niggas use to be like 'What's up fool!' and tried 

To seat a nigga like the Lip for no reason at all I can 

Recall crip niggas throwin' c in my face down the hall 

I'm kickin' it in the back of the school eatin' chicken at 

Three, wonderin' why is everybody always pickin' on me 

I tried to talk and tell tham chill I did nothing to deserve 

This But when it didn't work I wasn't scared just real 

Nervous and unprepared to deal with scrappin' no doubt 

Cause my pappy never told me how to knock a nigga out 

But now in 95 I must survive as a man on my own Fuck 

Around with Fatlip yes ya get blown I'm not trying to show 

No macho is shown but when it's on, if it's on, then it's on!

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

There comes a time in every mans life when he's gotta 

Handle up on his own Can't depend on friends to 

Help you in a squeeze, please they got problems of their 

Own Down for the count on seven chickens shits don't 

Get to heaven til they faced these fears in these fear 

Zones Used to get jacked back in high school I played 

It cool just so some real shit won't get full blown Being 

Where I'm from they let the smoke come quicker than an 

Evil red-neck could lynch a helpless colored figure And 

As a victim I invented low-key til the keyhole itself got 

Lower than me So I stood up and let my free form form 

Free. Said I'm gonna get some before they knockin' out me. 

I don't sweat it I let the bullshit blow in the breeze 

In other words just freeze

It's 1995 now that I'm older stress weighs on my shoulders 

Heavy as boulders but I told ya 

Till the day that I die I still will be a soldier and that's all I told 

Ya and that's all I showed ya 

And all this calamity is rippin' my sanity 

Can it be I'm a celebrity 

Whose on the brink of insanity 

Now don't be wishin's of switchin' any positions with me 

Cause when you in my position, it ain't never easy 

To do any type of maintaining cause all this gaming and famin' from 

Entertainin' is hella straining to the brain and 

But I can't keep running I just gotta keep keen and cunnin' 

Cant keep runnin' away
