Runnin' Lyrics

I got the new world in my view
On my journey I pursue
I said I'm runnin', runnin' for the city
I got the new world in my view
I got the new world in my view
On my journey I pursue
Lord, I'm runnin', runnin' for the city
I got the new world in my view

They ain't got no muscle, no hustle
No backbone, I stand alone
Not trippin', just sayin', I'm different
Ain't hangin' on to the coattails of the next man
Passport in my left hand, thinkin' that you are next
Heck, hope you ain't holdin' your breath, man
'Cause I'm out here, I'm hungry
I don't play around, trust me
Ain't had this my drive since my Honda Civic got rusty
And my girl said that she love me, it's funny
Just thinkin' back, study hard for that nine-to-five
Like I thought that I should be good with that
I was dreamin', still dreamin'
Spotlight on me like Willie Beaman
Still performin' like Al Pachino
Instagram in tuxedos with my peoples
We growin' up, 'stead of seein' others slowin' up
Tint squad, we throwin' up
Every time that we showin' up

Get it while I'm livin'
All I ever hear is the clock tick, tick, tickin'
So I'm 'bout my business
And I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
I'm runnin' with you now
They don't wanna give it up
We gon' make it out

Gotta get it while I'm livin'
All I ever hear is the clock tick, tick, tickin'
So I'm 'bout my business
And I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
I'm runnin' with them now (yeah)
They don't wanna give it up (yeah, yeah, yeah)
We gon' make it out

It don't get no greater, feel like I'm on fire
Feel like I'm Johnny Storm, feel like I'm volatile
Explosive, get close enough to notice
Your girl act out of character when she see me approachin'
Ain't pouchin' I'm just sayin' it's nothin'
You punchin' above your weight, I'm somethin'
She ain't seen no substitute in the A team
That's B.A., Baracus, that BS, that whackness
Get no play in my axis, make 'em jump like AJ Hackett
Guarantee you in these boots they couldn't walk one mile
Really need to go and hang it up like a drunk dial
So behind the times they should probably rock a sundial
Shatterin' their dreams, I could make Big Pun smile
Music from the soul, don't need them to help me
If they fiendin' for the flash, they should take another selfie
Said I'm runnin', I'm runnin' like Mo Farah, so dapper
Swear the whole world could go against me, it don't matter, man

Get it while I'm livin'
All I ever hear is the clock tick, tick, tickin'
So I'm 'bout my business
And I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
I'm runnin' with you now
They don't wanna give it up
We gon' make it out

Gotta get it while I'm livin'
All I ever hear is the clock tick, tick, tickin'
So I'm 'bout my business
And I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
I'm runnin' with them now
They don't wanna give it up
We gon' make it out

I'm on the chase
Won't wait another day
My plan's fallin' into place
We ain't got much to lose
I wanna taste
Won't wait another day
My plan's fallin' into place
We ain't got much to lose

Get it while I'm livin'
All I ever hear is the clock tick, tick, tickin'
So I'm 'bout my business
And I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
I'm runnin' with you now
They don't wanna give it up
We gon' make it out

Gotta get it while I'm livin'
All I ever hear is the clock tick, tick, tickin'
So I'm 'bout my business
And I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
I'm runnin' with them now
They don't wanna give it up
We gon' make it out
