[Intro: Kembe X]
I'm scared (Nah, dawg)
Running man, running man, running man, running man (I can't even- I can't even do no drugs right now)
I can't get too high right now, I'll blow my brains right out (Just pass me a spoonful)
Uh
[Chorus: Kembe X]
I'm scared, uh
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man
I can't get too high right now, I'll blow my brains right out my head
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, I'm scared
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man
I can't get too high right now, I'll blow my brains right out my head
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man
[Verse 1: Kembe X]
I don't wanna be no fuckup (Run, bitch)
I don't wanna be no slugger (Run, bitch)
Chase no bitch, tryna lay no lumber (Run, bitch)
Chasing them hits like Louisville slugger (Run, bitch)
Next door neighbor back down at the bottom (Run, bitch)
Nigga tryna get back right for the summer (Run, bitch)
If you ain't halfway there by August (Run, bitch)
Nigga up the tech 9 on his momma (Run, bitch)
Niggas back home and they not at the slammer
Niggas hit the block, head straight for the hammer
Make Kool-Aid straight outta the faucеt
Keep it 100, think something in the water
Sky blood rеd, trees burn by the dozen
Niggas can't inhale without coughin'
Switch niggas tryna recreate the Big Bang
Why the fuck we still getting fuel out of fossil? (Nigga)
Yeah I want the 'Rarri, but I'm tryna buy the block back
Niggas scared of nature, but ain't scared of getting shot at
Hundred 'round drum street sweeper blow your top back
Blood all on the pavement and ain't no one finna mop that
[Chorus: Kembe X, Denzel Curry]
I'm scared, uh (Run, bitch)
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man
I can't get too high right now, I'll blow my brains right out my head
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, I'm scared
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man
I can't get too high right now, I'll blow my brains right out my head
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man (Uh, uh, uh)
[Verse 2: Denzel Curry]
Running man, running man, running man
City on fire, man, hard to get hired by the higher hand
Lover and a fighter man, eye of the tiger and
Don't call me Rocky, a hopeless romantic
Savin' the green, I could be Captain Planet
This epidemic had me in a panic
Why do we eat when the food not organic?
Mask on my face like a motherfuckin' bandit (It's Denz!)
Desperado, people robbin' they desperate (Brrt!)
Semi-auto, watchin' you get arrested (Brrt!)
Police figured that we all got a deathwish (Woo!)
BLM, in a world we neglected (Yeah!)
Streets on fire, the hood on fire, and the woods on fire
And my soul on ice (On ice!)
Been sick and tired and I've been sick of riots
And I've been sick of fighting wars all my life (Roof!)
Disease in the air, got metal on the seat (Roof!)
Now a nigga sick off the shit that we eat (Roof!)
Now a nigga sick off the shit that we breathe (Roof!)
In the U.S and we still can't leave, I'm scared
Can't smoke, nah, nigga, need meds (No meds)
And they got my city in the red (In red)
Tellin' us that we better off dead, nigga, I'm scared
[Chorus: Kembe X]
I'm scared, uh (Run, bitch)
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man
I can't get too high right now, I'll blow my brains right out my head
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, I'm scared
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man
I can't get too high right now, I'll blow my brains right out my head
Running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man, running man
[Outro: Kembe X]
