“Run Girl” came together in May of 2019. It was me, Colt Taylor, and Jamie Poland. We had written a whole other song that day and I think we felt good about that song.

Run Girl Lyrics
Run girl
Til the come back sign in your rearview mirror starts fading
Run girl
Til the blacktop turns into catching those dreams that your chasing
If it’s meant to be girl we gotta let it go
What happens after this baby who knows
I can’t hold you back and I can’t fence you in even though I know you that you’re the one girl If this is goodbye then we found that good fight and in the end neither one of us won girl
And Doing what’s best for you is best for me so if you’re gonna leave
Go on a run girl
Run girl
If my memory catches up to ya down the road I’ll see ya then
Run girl
See what ya gotta see come back and we can be what we could’vе been
I can’t hold you back and I can’t fence you in evеn though I know you that you’re the one girl If this is goodbye then we found that good fight in the end neither one of us won girl
And Doing what’s best for you is best for me so if you’re gonna leave
Go on a run girl
Wide open on a broken heart
Yeah I guess this the part
Where you run girl
I can’t hold you back and I can’t fence you in even though I know you that you’re the one girl
If this is goodbye then we found that good fight in the end neither one of us won girl
And Doing what’s best for you is best for me so if you’re gonna leave
Go on a run girl

What inspired it?
I think the inspiration for “Run Girl” came from other songs that I love that talked about the guy letting the girl go chase her dreams. As hard as that can be, pushing her on and encouraging her to go see the world and chase her dreams but I’ll be right here if you decide to come back. I’ve always...
What was the process of making the song like?
The process of Run Girl in the studio was over a couple of years, we wrote the song in May of 2019. We had an acoustic guitar work take and even then, we knew it was special. Then Colt took it over to get demoed, so we had a demo of it and that was the demo that we lived with for about a year and a...
