MONDO GROSSO - Running Man

Copied!

{Refrain}
Running man, running man
What are you running from?
Running man, running man
Where are you running?

{Verse 1}
Where are you going, do you really know?
Memories of innocent years so long ago
Carrying the weight of the world
Falling on such young shoulders
Surviving life, my urban soldier

{Bridge}
Forgotten how to shed a tear
There's nothing left to fear
When you're living life on the streets
People say "Let's keep it real"
They don't know what's real
Hustling for the next bite to eat

{Refrain}
Running man, running man
What are you running from?
Running man, running man
Where are you running?

{Verse 2}
Mother and father doesn't care for you, mm
Prayers and promises are not answered to
Basic instinct to survive
Gotta try to just get by
Though there are times you ask yourself why

{Bridge}
Running away from problems
Leads to more problems
Cornered into life on the streets
Dreams and hopes die hard when you
Lose your brother at two
Living are the odds that you bear

{Refrain}
Running man, running man
What are you running from?
Running man, running man
Where are you running?

{Chorus}
You're just running from answers
Running on anger
Don't run away from love
Running from problems
Don't try to solve them
Don't run yourself to the ground

Let me catch you from running
Catch you from falling
Catch you before you drown
Catch you from tripping
Catch you from hurting
Catch you from running away

{Saxophone Solo}

{Bridge}
People try to justify a system that defies
Those whose life depends on the streets
No-one's there to care for you
I can't afford to be blue
Turn to ice when faced in the heat

{Piano Solo}

{Refrain}
Running man, running man
What are you running from?
Running man, running man
Where are you running?

{Chorus}
You're just running from answers
Running on anger
Don't run away from love
Running from problems
Don't try to solve them
Don't run yourself to the ground

Let me catch you from running
Catch you from falling
Catch you before you drown
Catch you from tripping
Catch you from hurting
Catch you from running away

You're just running from answers
Running on anger
Don't run away from love
Running from problems
Don't try to solve them
Don't run yourself to the ground

Let me catch you from running
Catch you from falling
Catch you before you drown
Catch you from tripping
Catch you from hurting
Catch you from running away

{Outro}
You run away
You run away
