Runaway

I can feel in it in the air
I can see it the skies
It's a feeling that I been getting
Lately I can't hide
I hear em callen to my heart
I can feel em a mile away
I think he telling me to leave this old place and just runaway

I gotta runaway I gotta runaway yea I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway

Aye let me tell you bout a truth
Once upon a time I ain't know
There was a reason I was brought in situations I ain't want
My life was nothing like the glamorous liven family was po
Remember wearing Shaq shoes and sketchers cause I was broke

Hand me downs, was all around me shopped at the thrift store
Wish I had a least a pair white ones from next door
Yea my intentions was wantin to be the freshest but I ain't know
The reason I wanted attention cause my self esteem was low

I wanted everyone to like me
Cause I was so insecure rockin two or three chains and watch just to be assured
My assurance wasn't in something greater wasn't mature, had no identity masculinity was in my gear

To others it would appear that was trying to be the boss but what them others couldn't see was that I couldn't see the cross
My significance was only in other peoples applause, wantin to be excepted by em instead of by god
But now I

I can feel in it in the air
I can see it the skies
It's a feeling that I been getting
Lately I can't hide
I hear em callen to my heart
I can feel em a mile away
I think he telling me to leave this old place and just runaway to him

I gotta runaway I gotta runaway yea I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway

Even in college up in Memphis I was trippen cause I saw the other brothers around me and how they live it
Everybody knew bout life I was the one that ain't experienced it
They knew about manhood (how you know) cause they was getting in it
While I was chasen peoples approval I couldn't stand it
Was looking at everybody looking for what a man is
I ain't look at the partner who created the men I just glanced all around me to figure out what the plan is

Wasn't later till I found out that god was the plan,it was on purpose he made me to be the way that I am
Like Eminem in Stan I became a fan to the man and told Jesus that I am what ever you say I am
I can wake up with love he supplies, instead of being put down I can look up at the skies
To the heavens and in heaven I can look up at the guy and say that I appreciate em for freeing me I'm a live

I can feel in it in the air
I can see it the skies
It's a feeling that I been getting
Lately I can't hide
I hear em callen to my heart
I can feel em a mile away
I think he telling me to leave this old place and just runaway to him

I gotta runaway I gotta runaway yea I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway

I'm excepted I been justified I'm justified in him
I ain't got people please cause I'm significant in him
I'm excepted I been justified I'm justified in him
I ain't got people please cause I'm significant in him
I'm excepted I been justified I'm justified in him
I ain't got people please cause I'm significant in him
I'm excepted I been justified I'm justified in him
I ain't got people please cause I'm significant in him

I can feel in it in the air
I can see it the skies
It's a feeling that I been getting
Lately I can't hide
I hear em callen to my heart
I can feel em a mile away
I think he telling me to leave this old place and just runaway to him

I gotta runaway I gotta runaway yea I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway I gotta runaway
