1000 Miles n' Runnin'

作曲：J. Fareed,R. Walker

作词：SJ

Runnin’ through the storm clouds tryna dodge the rain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin’

Even when the sun shines, I still feel the pain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin’

Boy ya know that things is still the same

But ya know we gotta find a better way

Runnin’ through the storm clouds tryna dodge the rain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin'

Start runnin’

Start runnin’

You ever go 1000 miles n’ runnin’

Put on a pair of tennis shoes and go?

Joggin’ on a dirt road, burnin’ coal

The passion in yo soul, goin’ for the rings of gold

You feelin’ like you run the town, no one can bring you down

Makin’ them faces go blank when you doin’ rounds

Ego’s up in the clouds and you stuck feelin’ proud

Ain’t givin’ a ** about anybody who’s around

But what happens when your path is masked with piles of crap and

You start t’ lose speed on the race you were sure t’ in fact win?

The crap is blockin’ traffic and there’s no way t’ go pass it

You start t’ stumble and fall, and the **’s about t’ pop off

Like a firecracker, ** just got drastic, the fuse is active

Imagine a massive crack about t’ take place in ya brain’s palace

A chemical storm in your life’s about t’ happen

And at this point, you’re only reactive, you feel you’re

Runnin’ through the storm clouds tryna dodge the rain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin’

Even when the sun shines, I still feel the pain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin’

Boy ya know that things is still the same

But ya know we gotta find a better way

Runnin’ through the storm clouds tryna dodge the rain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin'

Start runnin’

Start runnin’

Down and out on the life end, askin’ when will this blight end

In fight or flight, tryna find the right, scythe t’ slice your way back t’ the light and

Get out that grave you’ve been put in so you can get back t’ makin’ moves

And use your tools t’ set your blueprint and let loose ya screws in the pursuit of your movement

‘Cause right now you’re at rock bottom and don’t know how t’ turn stone

Prayin’ that ya mine yourself up outta this hole and use the fuel t’ burn coal, at the ground floor

These haters don’t know yo flow, don’t know yo pain, don’t know yo goals

Don’t know whether or not you got a heart of gold, or the strength of 1000 souls, go!

For the haters in your way, ‘bout time that ya get the glock

Lay waste t’ all them lames that said you were on the rocks

And didn’t try t’ provide a support system, they just broke rapport and let you rot in prison

Buried alive in the mind, mental patient waitin’ t’ die

But that mental patience that you’ve demonstrated’s got you motivated t’ go make a statement

Hopin’ dedication’ll get you elevated t’ the Zephyr where you once had levitated

Aided by renegades who hate the state of things who wanna bring alotta mo’

Ruckus t’ the game, Wu-Tang style, yet still you’re

Runnin’ through the storm clouds tryna dodge the rain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin’

Even when the sun shines, I still feel the pain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin’

Boy ya know that things is still the same

But ya know we gotta find a better way

Runnin’ through the storm clouds tryna dodge the rain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin'

Start runnin’

Start runnin’

You ever go 1000 miles n’ runnin’

Put on a pair of tennis shoes and go?

Back on the line, apt for the grind, at the speed of life on the track, runnin’ laps with the nine

Cappin’ back at kats, call it murder rap, Keanu with the gat, ** tag a price

‘Cause you bouta bring a massacre t’ them sideshow phonies

And they ain’t gonna handle what you stand for, like spiteful homies

Who wanna celebrate ya wins, but kick you when you down

They hate you when you rise above the mound

They mad you shinin’, crazy as it sounds, but it’s time t’ lock and load and take ‘em out!

‘Cause they was never gonna make amends, so why the ** you want ‘em in ya life again?

They’ll regret the day they dug this grave of ** when they was **-made

Grab life by the horns ‘cause this road’ll make a **in' ** sore

No chicken feet on this grind, take a stance like an iron horse

And show ‘em you’re a buzzard from the gutter with the flutter of a runner

**in’ up a flood of hunters like a gunner in the dead of summer

Funnelin’ bodies under the mound like The Punisher comin’ after the bastards who ravage the masses, go!

Life’s on the original run, ya back on that classic **

Renewed vigor in yo glass, kid, ay no longer

Runnin’ through the storm clouds tryna dodge the rain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin’

Even when the sun shines, I still feel the pain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin’

Boy ya know that things is still the same

But ya know we gotta find a better way

Runnin’ through the storm clouds tryna dodge the rain

If you can go a mile in my shoes, start runnin'

Start runnin’

Start runnin’
