On The Run

(album: How Bizarre - 1996)

A why did I do it, a why did I do it
I asked myself a hundred times and then I start to cry
It's up to my neck now I'm running like a dog
I can't remember how it started
But it's too late to turn back the clock
I gotta keep on, and on, and on, and on

Oh my heart's praying for a heart attack
I'm gonna collapse but I better not
I'll get a few years for the things I've done
I'll never see the sunrise no more what the hell
I'm gotta keep on

Fighting for my sanity and for family
And for my baby, oh for my baby
Bullshit aside yea I knew how to play the game right
But this time I made a mistake and I'm gonna pay the price
I'd rather be paying to the grim reaper, than the law keeper

I'm running, I'm running, I'm running, out of time
Too late to waste time in haste
I fell to my knees to pray to your God
But your God wasn't there for me

And so I prayed to myself for long life and stamina
I do believe I was starting to lose my nerve and my mind
I heard a little voice screaming
If you do the crime you will send to the time
If you do the crime you will send to the time
If you do the crime you will send to the time

Shit I won't bow down to that
A belly of a priest doesn't have his name on his slip no
I gotta keep on moving and grooving, I gotta keep on moving and grooving
I gotta keep my mind clear for the devils and the demons I will not fear
The devils and demons I will not fear

I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone

I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
I'm on the run, 10 more minutes and I'm gone
