Run No More
FM Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They said they want justice
It's an easy mistake
They said do unto others, an eye for an eye
The jury cried guilty
And I've been running all my life
I was born on muddy water
I'll take my chance behind the gun
I'll tell you one thing for sure
Hey, I ain't gonna run no more
Ain't gonna run no more
They got the devil on their conscience
They got blood on their hands
They tried and convicted an innocent man
I'm gonna die by the bullet, this I can tell
'Cos they said that they want justice
And I'll see them in hell
I was born on muddy water
On the wrong side of the law
I'll take my chance behind the gun
I'll tell you one thing for sure
I ain't gonna run no more
Ain't gonna run no more
Ain't gonna run no more
Oh, I was born on muddy water
On the wrong side of the law
I'll take my chance behind the gun
I'll tell you one thing for sure
I was born on muddy water
On the wrong side of the law
I'll take my chance behind the gun, yeah, yeah
I'll tell you one thing for sure
I ain't gonna run no more
Ain't gonna run no more
I've been running all my life
You ain't gonna take me alive
The lyrics to FM's song Run No More tell the story of a man who has been wrongfully accused and convicted of a crime he did not commit. Even though he was innocent, he was found guilty by the jury, causing him to become an outlaw. The man was born into a life of poverty and crime, growing up on the wrong side of the law. He has been running from the law for his entire life and appears to have accepted his fate that he will likely die by the bullet of the same people who wronged him.
The song's message speaks to the injustices of the legal system, where people can be wrongfully accused and convicted, and the impact it can have on their life. The lyrics also allude to the idea of an "eye for an eye," questioning whether justice is truly being served when innocent people are punished for crimes they didn't commit.
Ultimately, the singer of the song refuses to run anymore, accepting that he will likely die as an outlaw, but standing his ground and refusing to let the legal system take him alive. The lyrics are poignant and thought-provoking, and the melody of the song adds to the sense of urgency and desperation felt by the man in the story.
