NOTHING LIKE THE MOVIES

[Intro]
Run, run, run, run
Check, yeah-yeah
Just watching this shit go by

[Verse 1]
Watching the moon turning older as it's passing by, hounded by the satellites
Paired with lighter flicks and burning holes in your alibis
I heard it's nothing like the movies, all the flashing lights
I'm looking out the window pane, sitting by the candle lights
I see behind your eyes the shine of what you can't imagine
Tryna see the world through broken frames and shattered glasses
I think it's getting late, no time for all my records blasting
So I just close my eyes and dream 'bout shit that never happened
I never thought all these memories be so bittersweet
Told me there's no looking back, but fuck it man I'm in too deep
Say I'm living proof, but I'm missing the life I really need
When objects in the mirror show, I know that shit's a mystery
Getting older, know I want to move away from home
No longer poltergeists, or haunted mansions, breaking bones
Stars in the brightest sky, I did it on my own
When it's said and over with, I hope I fill a vacant soul

[Chorus]
So I run
Run, run, run, run
So I, so I, so I, so I, so I
I'm leaving you in the past
I'm leaving you in the past
Believe me when I say that I'm not meant to be old
And now I'm looking to the light, that shit is good for my soul
I'm leaving you in the past
I'm leaving you in the past

[Bridge]
Oh, ohh, oh, ohh
Ha, fuck that

[Verse 2]
All the planets realigning, we just fucking around
And all this retrograde effect has still been getting me down
I got the future to prosper, I put myself on the top of it
Feeling lunar nostalgia, becoming one with the sound
I think I like my own company, never less than me
I'm laxing with myself, there ain't nobody standing next to me
I don't need to tell you my stories, I let my records speak
So we don't end up strangers when it's time I gotta rest in peace
Never thought I'd pass the years I'm in, that's mystic talking
Fable fairy tales and empty thoughts, I miss it often
Stuck between a rift, I ain't grow out of being awkward
Before I ran my independency, I had to walk first
Skipping stones to overdose, we swimming in the deep end
Spending all this time, it gave me something to believe in
Solstice always telling me to chase it or to sleep in
So I'm chilling in serenity, I shed a tear and breathe in

[Chorus]
So I run, it all depends
Run, run, run, run
I'm leaving you in the past
I'm leaving you in the past
Believe me when I say that I'm not meant to be old
And now I'm looking to the light, that shit is good for my soul
I'm leaving you in the past
I'm leaving you in the past

[Outro]
I'm leaving you in the past
