Runner’s High

[Bridge]
A journey of a thousand miles begins one step at a time [RUN]
I refuse to sit back on the side and let life keep passing me by [RUN]
Pushing forward at a comfortable pace, the race is not for the swift I just take it in stride
Both feet on the ground, but it feel like I'm touching the sky
No drug in my veins I got a Runner's High

[Verse 1: Stic.Man]
I put my soul on the concrete, the rhythm of my breath controls my heart beat
Adrenaline pumping, leg muscles working
I take off on the runway, the asphalt is my airport
But I fly with my feet on the floor
Get away for an hour or more
When I run I can feel the breeze
I feel free and at ease
Like a bird flying over the sea
Like an African Gazelle running wild and free
I see the dirt roads in Kenya, the Masai's feet
And its the same blood that runs through me
When it feels like I'm running on empty
Or running out of time
Or stress keep running through my mind
I resolve to continue
Keep my chest up pushing forward
Overstanding everything has to run it's course
My legs are my wings they allow me to soar and endure

[Chorus]

This life is a journey
Some will go and some are coming
Like a river keeps on running
Find a way

This life is a journey
Some will go and some are coming
On the path forever learning
Stay in the race

[Verse 2: Stic.Man]
Put, one foot in front of the other
Hit the ground running the streets under the rubber
Running through the hood, sewage running through the gutter
Kids growing up hungry with barely running water
I see the little brother, little league pop warner
Wanna' be a running back, its just him and his mother
No father, and she knows if he run on the corner he gonner
So the football field is where he running for cover
We all running in some form or another
If not to score a touchdown just to go a step further
Watch the hurdles
Remember the rabbit moved fast but he came in last after the turtle
I won't waste my time running in circles
I know where I'm going and I'mma get there with focus
I go for the goal like Jackie Joyner
The race is not for the swift, its a test of endurance

[Chorus]

[Female voice talking on running]
It's a mind and body connection
[RUN]
Yes it is a painful journey, at times
And adrenaline is running and if your calves are killing you
What you wanna' think
Struggling
What you wanna' think instead of Wow this is really difficult I'm having a tough time
What you wanna' think is I'm giving it my all

If you're having a particularly hard race you try to picture, focus on somebody in front of you. Pretend like they're pulling you up, like giving you a rope like getting you there, getting you over that hill, up and over

[Bridge]
A journey of a thousand miles begins one step at a time
I refuse to sit back on the side and let life keep passing me by
Pushing forward at a comfortable pace, the race is not for the swift I just take it in stride
Both feet on the ground, but it feel like I'm touching the sky
No drug in my veins I got a Runner's High
