About This Track

'Run' by Rudimental is a 2015 track from the album 'We the Generation'. Its lyrics frame a restless urge to escape, with the narrator trying to avoid a hard truth and feeling repeatedly pulled into flight to protect themselves from the emotional blow. The repeated vow, “run, run, run, run, run”, sits at the centre of a verse and pre-chorus structure that turns hurt into motion, panic into insistence.

"Run" is a track by Rudimental, from the album We the Generation, released 2nd October 2015. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 2 articles about Rudimental.

Lyrics

Run

[Verse 1: Will Heard]

Trying to avoid the truth cause it hurts

I'm feeling to run, run, run, run, run; to run, run, run, run, run

Trying to protect myself from the blow cause it takes me down so low

I'm feeling to run, run, run, run, run; to run, run, run, run, run

[Pre-Chorus: Will Heard]

Is it only a matter of time 'til I lose my mind?

Oh I'm feeling to run, run, run, run, run; to run, run, run, run, run

And if I can find my fears, shed those tears

Maybe I'll come back home

[Chorus: Will Heard]

I need to let it out

Gonna let go of my pride

I got to let it out

I, I got to let it out

[Verse 1: Will Heard]

Trying to avoid the truth cause it hurts

I'm feeling to run, run, run, run, run; to run, run, run, run, run

I don't wanna see your face, I'm feeling outta place

Oh I'm feeling to run, run, run, run, run; to run, run, run, run, run

[Pre-Chorus: Will Heard]

And is it only a matter of time before I lose my mind?

Oh I'm feeling to run, run, run, run, run; to run, run, run, run, run

If I can find my fears, shed those tears

Maybe I'll come back home

[Chorus: Will Heard]

I need to let it out

Gonna let go of my pride

I got to let it out

I, I got to let it out

[Bridge: Will Heard]

I'm trying to run, there's no use looking back

I'm trying to run, there's no use looking back, no, no, no, no

I'm trying to run, there's no use looking back

I'm trying to run, there's no use looking back, no

[Chorus: Will Heard]

I got to let it out

I, I got to let it out
