Runaway Lyrics

Run away or stay? Run away or stay?

You gotta choose one. Choose one

Run away or stay? Run away or stay?

You gotta choose one. Choose one

Strong one, never leave people hanging much

Want to uplift them, not step on them on your way up

Refuse to drop the ball like Jordan jumping while you clutch

Throw yourself back in the game if you feel out of touch

(Touch) control lose it you kind of lose your mind

Why mama threatened to leave us about a hundred times

When we would stress, and we would fight, and get way out of line

Couldn't get a break. Six kids so hard to take, yet still she ain't resign

Though days, I know she cried

Accept what she's assigned

Burdened by hidden blessings like family is God's design

I know, cause though the process seemed slow

We grew up and blew up

To give her a nice return on her invested time

Though times we wanted to quit on her too

Curse her out and then cry; it wasn't something that we wanted to do

Frustration drove us there, but the love ain't disappear

Carried us for years, so now we gon' carry you

Run away or stay? Run away or stay?

You gotta choose one. Choose one

Run away or stay? Run away or stay?

You gotta choose one. Choose one

Forget your convenience and your comfortability

If you ain't tryna change, don't show me your vulnerability

Clout chasing, it seems to be quite pathetic

Cause there's no way I could be sympathetic

I'm empathetic, so please don't

Tell me how it is that I don't really get you

The struggle that you claim you in, I'm in that struggle with you

I thought we were in it together

It's whatever. Go do what you feel is better to do

But ask yourself, "it's better for who?"

It's only you, then it ain't better at all

A real blessing's meant to be a blessing benefit all

We're one. Garden of Eden like one fall we all fall back

What if Harriet got her freedom and she never looked back?

Thank God for the fighters and prayer warriors

I change the standard of times like it is courier I'm writing with

The type of writer read an issue and rewrite it with

A pen and God, it's just this question now that I be fighting with

Run away or stay? Run away or stay?

You gotta choose one. Choose one

Run away or stay? Run away or stay?

You gotta choose one. Choose one
