Hit-Boy - Running In Place Lyrics
(Hook)Running in place and going nowhere fastRunning in vain how long will this lastRunning in place ,running in vainRunning in place ,how long will it take(Verse 1)Feeling like my back's against the wallBut lately this shit been feeling invisible'Cause when you born to riseAll these *****es weren't to visit youAll them niggers who hate itCongratulate pretending to be in your cornerBut the truth is they never be free to chooseAccepting all the timesWelcoming in the polesBut the ship feel like it sinkWhere your heroes become your foesThen your dreams become your lifeAnd you still got room to growRelate to my pain, I'm spilling my soulI just feel like I change schoolAnd niggers like hover flashingAnd I can't score niggers like they were fashionBut I can score niggers don't have is the passion'Cause I remember being 3 wondering where my dad wentThe letters he has sent,motivating me on my pathTaking in prison visits putting my hand on the glassWhen is daddy coming home is the question I never askI'm a titan and here's the part where I clashI just feel like I'mRunning in place(Verse 2)They thought I was done but they was so wrongAnd I was so young and stuck in that zoneThey thought I was goneBut when I got grown I stuck to my nameAnd I made it my ownMy pops was from quibbleTheir pops was from ABCBut I just made great musicSo I'm GOOD vainNever really expect for this shit to come out of meJust the real last nigga, that's something I'm proud to beHonestly I can see we all got room to growRelate to my pain, I'm spilling my soulI just feeling like I'm(Hook)Running in place and going nowhere fastRunning in vain how long will this lastRunning in place ,running in vainRunning in place ,how long will it takeHow long will it take'Cause I ain't going nowhere fast(Outro x2)If I gotta leave then I'ma leave you with thisIf you gonna dream,dream bigAnd if you gonna live,live right'Cause we never get the chance to do it twiceHITstory
