18RUN

[Intro] Ryan Oakes [Verse 1] There never is an easy way out when your sixteen You spiral down until you're finally up shits creek Waking up every morning to a blitzkrieg Of all these people trying break all of your esteem God forbid you're just a little different And it sparks their interest you'll become the biggest new joke And the're gonna be so persistent hating so Consistent till your hopes diminished alone and you're bruised up bad (And boost up) [Pre-Chorus] Now your everybody's punch line, You wonder where you sit While your standing in the lunch line, Desperate to get Just a little bit of sun shine, I thought to end it all About a hundred more than one time, I didn't fit the mold So I end up cast out, But when I started to choke I didn't ever tap out, They all hated themselves So they had to act out, Wasn't an eye for an eye So I never lashed out I knew I would laugh now [Chorus] When you turn eighteen run At a speed that they won't catch I think it's obvious that I can't promise you you're gonna leave without one scratch Cause the Adventures just begun and the world is in your grasp A hundred miles an hour is your super power and I promise you won't crash When you turn 18 run [Verse 2] Welcome to my world and to my mind let's take a flashback Writing all my raps distracted in the back of math class Notebooks full of lyrics had them spilling out my backpack Steve-o's didn't get it so they acted like a jackass I just kept on working with no capping like a snap-back Tried to turn the cards that I was dealt into a blackjack Never would retaliate on days where I was laughed at Sometimes you just gotta take a hike like a halfback Anxiety was eating at me like a fuckin parasite Felt like my heart was stopping I would sit in classes paralyzed Panic every hour I would sit in silence terrified Mapping how the fuck I'm finna make it out this paradigm Said that when I'm finished I'll be leaving without looking back Booked it to the west coast and I left it all inside the past Didn't do it by the book and now I'm booked up look at that I'm winning and I know they're all shook at that [Chorus] When you turn eighteen run At a speed that they won't catch I think it's obvious that I can't promise you you're gonna leave without one scratch Cause the Adventures just begun and the world is in your grasp A hundred miles an hour is your super power and I promise you won't crash When you turn 18 run [Bridge] Went from night all alone and panic attacks To having me a hand I can hold and managing that Reflecting on the nights I was cold from damages that Hurt me and the ones who wen't ghost in a vanishing act Went from night all alone and panic attacks To having me a hand I can hold and managing that Reflecting on the nights I was cold from damages that Hurt me and the ones who wen't ghost in a vanishing act [Chorus] When you turn eighteen run At a speed that they won't catch I think it's obvious that I can't promise you you're gonna leave without one scratch Cause the Adventures just begun and the world is in your grasp A hundred miles an hour is your super power and I promise you won't crash When you turn eighteen run At a speed that they won't catch I think it's obvious that I can't promise you you're gonna leave without one scratch Cause the Adventures just begun and the world is in your grasp A hundred miles an hour is your super power and I promise you won't crash When you turn eighteen run
