Runnin

[Chorus]

Everybody talkin' in my head (Hurry up)

I don't wanna stop and they forget (Hurry up)

Only ever chasin' what's next (Hurry up)

Only ever runnin' from regret (Hurry up)

Runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'

Yeah, runnin' 'til the lights go out

Runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'

Yeah, runnin' 'til the lights go out

[Verse 1]

Unproductive in my early twenties

Swallow back anxiety, it hurt my stomach

I don't really like this version of me

Everybody sayin' that I'll learn to love me, we'll see

Stuck inside the comfort zone, where nothin' grows

Lookin' 'round like I been here before

Kept sayin' I'll do it next year, that was last year

And then the time before that was the year before

Next thing I know it, there's five years passin' me by

Nothin' but promises to myself, I guess that I lied

I stopped walkin' when I said that I'd taken a stride

How can I tell my kid to try when I ain't even tried?

Damn, guess I needed that reality check

Keep on repeatin' the mistakes I said won't happen again

Lookin' around at everybody else, they havin' success

Wastin' my time, waitin', thinkin' that I had to be next

Put that version of myself in a casket to rest

Eyes bloodshot, lookin' like I'm back from the dead

I ain't catchin' Zs, let alone catchin' my breath

Damn, guess this life has some adverse effects

I can't stop, 'cause

[Chorus]

Everybody talkin' in my head (Hurry up)

I don't wanna stop and they forget (Hurry up)

Only ever chasin' what's next (Hurry up)

Only ever runnin' from regret (Hurry up)

Runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'

Yeah, runnin' 'til the lights go out

Runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'

Yeah, runnin' 'til the lights go out

[Verse 2]

Overly productive in my late twenties

Everything I want from life I take from it

I set plans, had a goal, hit 'em all, took a toll

But everyone who doubted couldn't say nothin'

Work-life balance, I'm tryna juggle that

Tourin' with my family 'cause we hunt in packs

Son is on the phone cryin', askin' when we comin' back

Tryna get this money stacked, he just wants his mom and dad, damn

I was on the road, did thirty-two shows

Hoppin' off stages, switch the clothes, I open my phone

Edit all this content alone, I needed to post

Because if I don't, they'll forget me and may never show up again, right?

Look, my mind is in a hundred places

Autopilot on stage, yeah, I sung the phrases

But deep down, I'm distracted by some frustration

I try to push it down, but it's suffocatin'

Run in place or become complacent

Too much stress or no stress, that's the ultimatum

I'm tryna play both sides like a double agent

Got everything I wanted, do I love or hate it?

[Chorus]

Everybody talkin' in my head (Hurry up)

I don't wanna stop and they forget (Hurry up)

Only ever chasin' what's next (Hurry up)

Only ever runnin' from regret (Hurry up)

Runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'

Yeah, runnin' 'til the lights go out

Runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'

Yeah, runnin' 'til the lights go—
