running away
Entendre Lyrics

First off just take a breather
Start by taking a break and breathing

Never fall into the make believers
Don't believe in false promises or illusions

Tryna build empire like Jason Jeter
Trying to create a successful career like Jason Jeter

Go gorilla on the track, great ape Vegeta
Performing strongly like a gorilla or Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z

You get what I′m saiyan (saying)
You understand what I'm trying to express

No Bape Adidas
Not wearing Bape Adidas shoes

Tryna run up the numbers till I break the meter
Trying to be extremely successful

Til' you face the heater, and you fake a seizure
Until you face the consequences and pretend to be affected

Dog I gotta blow cause my patience leaving
I need to succeed soon because I'm losing patience

Two steps for the one time
Simple actions can have big consequences

Make them right hooks, and them punchlines
Creating clever and effective lyrics

This is sorta like my NFL combine
This is a crucial time to showcase my skills and determine my future success

When we wake up tomorrow pray for sunshine
Hoping for a better day tomorrow

It's a brighter day for tomorrow
Tomorrow is going to be a better day

In the trenches they living in sorrow
Some people are going through tough times

Fresh gear 'member days we would borrow
Remembering the days when we used to borrow clothes

Damn this shit changing they shooting out Largo
The environment is changing and becoming more dangerous

'Member days was dreaming of Bentleys
Remembering when we used to dream about luxury cars

Gucci, Prada shit I'll even wear Fendi
Willing to wear expensive designer brands

Fuck up a check when I cop my Balenci's
Spending a lot of money on Balenciaga shoes

Broke and proud now I'm down to my pennies
Used to be broke but now I have very little money

Nigga been through a lot through the past year
I have experienced a lot of things in the past year

On the road the riches on my last gear
At the end of my journey to success

Sick of dumb ass jobs was a cashier
Tired of working low-paying jobs such as a cashier

Mixtapes get thrown in the trash here
My music is often rejected or ignored

Ironically they recycling bars
Others are reusing my lyrics

Me and Toonsz spending nights in garage
Working hard on music in a garage

Hit up Parris he live right next to Nas
Contacting Parris who lives near Nas to work on music

Use to trap in towers now I'm Eiffel to y'all
Used to sell drugs in high-rises but now I'm a high achiever

Money growing, getting taller
Success and wealth are increasing

Jeans tight, pockets smaller
Although I'm successful, I have less personal space and freedom

Thank mama the way I was brought up
Grateful for how I was raised

Living life but I never got caught up
Enjoying life without getting too wrapped up in material wealth

Starry night, the sky's falling
Metaphor for the difficult times I've experienced

But everybody has a calling
Everyone has a purpose in life

I'm still searching for mine too
I'm also trying to figure out my purpose

Plain sight from the sky view
It may be obvious from a different perspective

Soul searching they'll find you
Looking within oneself can lead to finding purpose

But got nowhere to hide too
There's no avoiding the search for purpose

And so I'm running away, I'm running away
Escaping from the pressures and struggles of life

Always running away, I'm running away
Constantly trying to escape

Gotta stop running away, I'm running away
Need to confront challenges instead of avoiding them

Can't keep running away, running away
Avoiding problems won't make them go away

Been through it all but I'm too involved
Experienced many things but they have left a lasting impact

Copped my team goldlinks now my crew can floss
Bought expensive jewelry for my team to show off

And them niggas hating bad what I do to y'all
Others are becoming jealous of my success

And don't even worry bout what my shoes will costs
Not concerned with the expenses of my footwear

So u might afford it but my life distorted
Others may have money but my life has been difficult

I fight the horror with he mic recording
Using music to cope with life's struggles

Bro stay with 45s like he Michael Jordan
Carries guns like Michael Jordan's jersey number

You gotta have drive I'm the type to floor it
Need to have ambition and the drive to succeed

So I'm speeding down life's highway
Making fast progress in life

Tryna cop a benz in my driveway
Working hard to afford a luxury car

I ain't been alseep in bout 5 days
Not being able to sleep due to stress or work

And I'm gettin top from my side bae
Having a sexual relationship with someone outside of a committed relationship

Sometimes I hate the life that I'm living
Occasionally feeling unsatisfied with my life

Gramma whipping pies in that kitchen
Grandmother cooking or baking food in the kitchen

Uncle be pushing weight, think I'm kidding
Uncle is selling drugs, but others may not believe it

Rap niggas lie, I lie to my women. Aye!
Rappers often lie, and I also lie to my girlfriends

Walk in Barney's just to fuck up a check
Going to an expensive store to spend a lot of money

Dead broke now you stuck up in debt
Being broke and in debt

Take a flick, double cuff just to flex
Taking a photo while flexing with double-cuffed pants

Upgrade my life from the shuttle to jets
Improving my life significantly

Go from noodles to steak, I got food on my plate
Going from poverty to having enough to eat

Pave my own way you just do what they say
Making my own path instead of following others' advice

Y'all follow wave stay true my way
Be yourself instead of following trends

Ain't no waiting tomorrow I do it today
Not waiting for tomorrow to take action
