Runaway Lyrics - The Earth

"(Wyclef) 

To my people doing time 

To my people rest in peace (y'all ready for the refugee camp?) 

Introducing Earth, Wind & Fire 

Yah yah yah 

Come on come on come on 

No money in my pocket 

Gotta get a no limit 

So I became America's most wanted 

All I ever wanted was a fancy car 

A crib for my mom and a mastercard 

Baby you know it's in Hollywood 

New cop flicks with Clint Eastwood 

Went from a teen to a young adult 

No excuses aint't my fault

Runaway 

We living like runaways 

Wake up 

Stretching in the morning 

Trying to make it through the day 

Brush my teeth 

Hit the streets 

Where there's heat 

We afford to beef 

Hoping one day 

We don't have to run away 

(Gotta Escape) 

Photos 

(Chorus) 

I didn't want to runaway 

But I had to get a way yo (gotta get away) 

We didn't want to runaway 

But we had to get away yo (gotta get away) 

I didn't want to leave astray 

But sometimes I gotta get away yo (gotta get away) 

I didn't want to go away 

But I had to go away yo 

Yo G&B where you at? 

(Product G&B) 

Momma came home from a hard days work 

At day time a maid at night time a nurse 

Work so hard to make sure we survived 

Living a ghetto paradise 

Sometimes I wake up screaming in the middle of the night 

Hoping that darkness brings me light 

Praying for that better day where we won't have to runaway 

(Bridge) 

Runaway 

We living like runaways 

Wake up 

Stretching in the morning 

Trying to make it through the day 

Brush my teeth 

Hit the streets 

Where there's heat 

We afford to beef 

Hoping one day 

We don't have to run away 

(Chorus) 

I didn't want to runaway 

But I had to get a way yo (gotta get away) 

We didn't want to runaway 

But we had to get away yo (gotta get away) 

I didn't want to leave astray 

But sometimes I gotta get away yo (gotta get away) 

I didn't want to go away 

But I had to go away yo 

Ladies and gentleman Earth, Wind & Fire 

(Earth, Wind & Fire) 

Ba dow bo ba dow bo ba dow bo ba dow bo ba dow bo ba dow bo 

(da da da da da da ) (Feeling melly y'all) 

Ba dow bo Ba dow bo 

(More peace y'all) 

Ba dow bo Baw dow bo 

Ba dow bo Baw dow bo 

Bow da da da da 

(Bridge) 

Runaway 

We living like runaways 

Wake up 

Stretching in the morning 

Trying to make it through the day 

Brush my teeth 

Hit the streets 

Where there's heat 

We afford to beef 

Hoping one day 

We don't have to run away 

(ChorusX2) 

I didn't want to runaway 

But I had to get a way yo (gotta get away) 

We didn't want to runaway 

But we had to get away yo (gotta get away) 

I didn't want to leave astray 

But sometimes I gotta get away yo (gotta get away) 

I didn't want to go away 

But I had to go away yo 

Yo y'all gonna make me do it I don't want to do it but here we go
