lyrics

I been looking for some inspiration
I want this bad, no exaggeration
These rap genes made me give up on the graduation
But my peers graduated (runnin')
So where the honour students and recruiters in the schools
I could point out everybody that told me I couldn't do it n***a (runnin')
So I'm runnin', runnin' runnin'
But I walk many stages
Thought the hate phased us
With the odds stacked
Still I walk through the mazes
I cried tears of joy, I can't describe that
Only way I could explain is to cry back
Imma settle for less
But I knew one day I'd be blessed
Put my trust in God in the process
Still through the progress seen a lotta losses
Many thought we couldn't ball so they crossed us
But I didn't run back like Lebron James
Pinned the ball to the board n***a
It's my court, it's game time

Sometimes I think why
Why God bless my life?
I promise that I am gonna try to make the wrong things right
In case I gotta die tonight
Imma give my all tonight
In case I gotta die tonight
Imma give my all tonight

Runnin', runnin' runnin' runnin'
Yes I'm runnin', runnin' runnin' runnin'

Why God bless my life?
Why God bless my life?

Here's a point of view of a child in immigration
Tryna reach heights took flights to elevation
When you gotta leave home and everybody that you know
That's a, that's a tough situation
If you feel alone that's the work of separation
But, you work too hard you been patient Mama
(Runnin', runnin' runnin' runnin')
You see your son coming up, next best thing out
And every single time I stand high above the crowd
I tell them all the things that you done to make me proud
(Runnin', runnin' runnin' runnin')
See I was only ten, a moment in my life
We took the bus number eight for a ride
And you ain't had the funds for the ride
And the bus driver said
If you ain't have no money ain't no fun in this life
Ever since that day that shit stuck on my mind
If I could only turn back the time and say a word
I'd tell you patience
Your son's on the brink of his greatness

Sometimes I think why
Why God bless my life?
I promise that I am gonna try to make the wrong things right
In case I gotta die tonight
Imma give my all tonight
In case I gotta die tonight
Imma give my all tonight

Sometimes I think why
Why God bless my life?
I promise that I am gonna try to make the wrong things right
In case I gotta die tonight
Imma give my all tonight
In case I gotta die tonight
Imma give my all tonight

Runnin', runnin' runnin' runnin'
Yes I'm runnin', runnin' runnin' runnin'
Runnin', runnin' runnin' runnin'
Yes I'm runnin', runnin' runnin' runnin'

Why God bless my life?
Why God bless my life?
