[Verse 1]
|
Shouldn't have to cry
|
For you to make me smile, hey
|
Talking down to me
|
Like I'm your child, oh boy
|
|
Shouldn't have to beg ya, oh
|
To hear me out, no
|
Shouldn't need another reason
|
For me to shut you out
|
Put my heart and my mind are in battle
|
|
[Bridge]
|
Lovin' you's like running, running on the line
|
It's like I'm chasing down the lovin' there's no finish line in sight
|
I just keep on running, running on the line
|
And you wonder why I'm so damn tired all the time
|
|
[Chorus]
|
I keep on running
|
(keep running, I keep running, keep running, I keep running)
|
Feels like I'm running, running on the line
|
(keep running, I keep running, keep running, I keep running)
|
I keep on running
|
(keep running, I keep running, keep running, I keep running)
|
And you wonder why I'm so damn tired all the time
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
What's a little laughter, oooh
|
When he comes with so much pain
|
I'll be here for-ever
|
If I wait for you to change, uh uh oh
|
|
I don't know if I can do it
|
Cuz I'm running low on fluid
|
Can't believe you brought me to this
|
Open my heart, you straight abuse it
|
What's it gonna take
|
For me to break away
|
I really don't know, hey
|
Cuz my heart and my mind are in battle
|
|
[Bridge]
|
Lovin' you's like running, running on the line
|
It's like I'm chasing down the lovin' there's no finish line in sight
|
I just keep on running, running on the line
|
And you wonder why I'm so damn tired all the time
|
|
[Chorus]
|
I keep on running
|
(keep running, I keep running, keep running, I keep running)
|
Feels like I'm running, running on the line
|
(keep running, I keep running, keep running, I keep running)
|
I keep on running
|
(keep running, I keep running, keep running, I keep running)
|
And you wonder why I'm so damn tired all the time
|
|
[Verse: Nas]
|
Yeah, Yeah
|
You got that chrome and purple love
|
Running and waving
|
Saying nothing can keeps us from it
|
That's my woman, but you might fall in love with the youngster
|
Hipster, someone taller, baller, richer, and locked down
|
Maybe someone of a different, infinite, background terrific
|
I wish ya the white gown
|
The God, a white veil, rings and roses
|
Tiara in your hair like a queen
|
I toast ya, told ya, lately I'm bingin' on Mercedes Benzes
|
Lot of my lady friends is getting older
|
Looking for somebody to cuff em
|
Rush into a husband, don't even truly love them
|
At they best friend's bridal ceremony, jealous and they're lonely, Cryin', but they're phony
|
Yo, Fiona, you know me
|
Yo we still got time to find real L.O.V.E
|
Like the lyrics in the real love songs, the oldies, so keep runnin' fo' me
|
If you're out there listening, so Nas don't need a trophy, I need a misses
|
Trying to get with that "wife and kids" business
|
No just arm candy, my dream is to have a family
|
|
[Bridge]
|
All I ever wanted was a love on top
|
All I ever needed was a love that's mine
|
Did you ever really love me or is love so blind
|
Uh, here I go I'm 'bout to cross the line
|
|
[Bridge]
|
Lovin' you's like running, running on the line
|
It's like I'm chasing down the lovin' there's no finish line in sight
|
I just keep on running, running on the line
|
And you wonder why I'm so damn tired all the time
|
|
[Chorus]
|
I keep on running
|
(keep running, I keep running, keep running, I keep running)
|
Feels like I'm running, running on the line
|
(keep running, I keep running, keep running, I keep running)
|
I can't keep running
|
(keep running, I keep running, keep running, I keep running)
|
And you wonder why I'm so damn tired all the time
|
