Dave East – Runnin’ Lyrics

Hip Hop/Rap

Runnin'
Don't time out, eh?
Don't time out, eh?

Stretch before you run
Naysh, sneakers
And get your breath right
I've been through hit-and-runs where we gotta run at the red light
Run away from bitches, make you repeat what you said twice
Been running all my life from a system they call pale white

Runnin' like I'm Harriet
Various niggas playing off
I run up on, I take everything off 'em
Naysh can't floss, bitches, we was runnin' through
Never made it to summer school

Runnin' from police, different
Knowing you got that gun on you
Niggas that been running since Claude and Ra
Was running shootin'
Told 'em that was spankies boots
Don't blame me, I ain't make the rules

Running to the bathroom
I think I had some Jamaican food
Running out the classroom, I had A's in school
Running out of baggies
I made a run to the corner
If they hop out, OG told me to run
That's how they warned us

I was running out of cabs, nigga
I ran from Truancy and More
We was running up the rock a pack, how you can see the score
How to ran from security
Trying to sneak shit out the store
Got three daughters
I adore just cuz' I ran up in it raw

Stacey got my case dismissed, that's when I ran right out the court
Told the judge, thank you, your honor
Then lit up some haze to cough
I think Danny was my driver, cops behind us, run the light
Shots fire, niggas running left, some niggas runnin' right
When I run into the mic, feel like I'ma come on with Christ
Darken nights, if they snatch you
The CEO's gon' run your life

Castro over told 'em, don't run
Know that's my son
Run the game until you start to see bread
We come from crumb
It's hard to breathe out here without shooters
That was my lung
Pray hard like I'm Esco, who thought I'd come in with junk

That's my nigga, run it
Got me feelin' like I'm Seagle
Been a leader since my father
Was running base right by that regal
I see running in these streets
She needs some base up in that needle

Some niggas runnin' to the cops
Some niggas runnin' to the cathedral
Never running from no rep, I'm known for running up on sets
Niggas running all that mouth
Got 'em running up your steps
Tryna run up on some ops, tryna run up on some checks
You either run it or they take it
Out your hand like Mookie Betts, okay

That's just the switch
I get a kick when niggas running away
Nah, that's old crust, just breathe easy, don't fuck up the race
Clip 'em off, I caught a stride and I'm still running today
All the other niggas is lab rats and they're just running in place

Sometimes you trip, but just get back in pace
Watch your mouth cuz you can't get back your face
Gunshots from the nine, by the time they came
We was back up on eighth
Watch some calvers if you're ace
They be running in your safe
