Big Boi - Shoes For Running

.

Shoes for running, and I'll race ya

Sun is coming, it'll chase ya

Through this dead beat town

Through this dead beat town

The end is coming, and will race ya

But there's no running, it'll chase ya

Death will hunt you down

Death will hunt you down

.

What about the people that's barefoot

With no shoes for running when the sun come up?

Hey one percenters, the 99 say what you gonna do for us?

We'll run up in your house like the first runner up

Be the first one to buck and the last one to get laid down, stay down

And now we're looking at the top of the pile

Or the king of the mountain gonna knock him off

Revolt, but y'all n*ggas here too soft

Bubblegum, just popping off

At the mouth like the n*gga got all the hoes

Got all the dough and all the women

Boy, what you gon' do in the penitentiary

Got a lot of money, can't take it with me

I can't take it with me, I wish they could send me

To the moon and back with a cure for cancer

And save the lives of my great grandmama and my great grandaddy

Now that's the answer to the question

But they make money of the medicine

Leaving us all stuck in elections

With no progressions, just recessions

.

Shoes for running, and I'll race ya

Sun is coming, it'll chase ya

Through this dead beat town

Through this dead beat town

The end is coming, and will race ya

But there's no running, it'll chase ya

Death will hunt you down

Death will hunt you down

.

Just as I expected, life gets deadly

It's funny how the beloved become the beheaded

The truth can be independent the direction that you stretch it

So my n*ggas will draw when sh*t gets sketchy

That's a masterpiece, a work of art

A gallery, no Photoshop

Pictures say a million words, so I just let my photos talk

Even in your local talk, n*ggas say you know he boss

Every time my name is brought up better know it's mogul talk

That's why she give me geek 'till her shins weak

I'm blazing everyday, you can call that demp week

You're running from a life that you didn't see

That's like playing hide and seek with the Grim Reap

.

Shoes for running, and I'll race ya

Sun is coming, it'll chase ya

Through this dead beat town

Through this dead beat town

The end is coming, and will race ya

But there's no running, it'll chase ya

Death will hunt you down

Death will hunt you down

.

You can run, but you can't hide

Spent your whole life trying to escape

When everybody stayed

Getting tired of living in a lie

Different nights, same town

Say goodbyes, but we tried

Cause we know there's no getting out

And when the pawns are playing themselves

I just lay and wait and straighten myself

Let em move around till the rhythm sells out

Bring them back to life, give them mouth to mouth

.

Shoes for running, and I'll race ya

Sun is coming, it'll chase ya

Through this dead beat town

Through this dead beat town

The end is coming, and will race ya

But there's no running, it'll chase ya

Death will hunt you down

Death will hunt you down

.

You can fight and try to get away

But there's no way to run and hide to

You better know that there will come a day

Eventually it's gonna find you

You can fight and try to get away

But there's no way to run and hide to

You better know that there will come a day

Eventually it's gonna find you

.

Eventually it's gonna find you...
