Runnin'
RIM Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I been runnin'
I been runnin' to the top
I been runnin' for my spot
Time to get that guap
I been runnin' for the fam
I been runnin' for the gang
Run it
Gotta maintain
Waking up
Thinking โ€˜bout money
Waking up
Thinking by bands
I been thinking โ€˜bout the future
I donโ€™t wanna eat cans
Give me that steak
Cut it
Cut it on my dinner plate
Sniffing that shit makes you feel great
But I donโ€™t fuck with it 'cause I medicate
Smoking that good help me concentrate
Blowing that loud help me meditate
Blowing negativity away
King James
I gotta make plays
I pull up shoot
Nothing you can do
Hit you with that clean swish
Hit you with that straight
Facer
Iโ€™m a racer
Switching lanes
Iโ€™m taking planes
To other states
And different places
And Iโ€™m fucking different races
Uh
Man I started in the basement
Ainโ€™t nobody gonna tell me what I gotta do to make it
Uh
They see me runnin'
I see them frontinโ€™
I see them
They see me
I see them
They see me
They see me
They see me
Runnin'
I been runnin' to the top
I been runnin' for my spot
Time to get that guap
I been runnin' for the fam
I been runnin' for the gang
Run it
Gotta maintain
Runnin'
I been runnin' to the top
I been runnin' for my spot
Time to get that guap
I been runnin' for the fam
I been runnin' for the gang
Run it
Gotta maintain
I been runninโ€™
I been sellin
I been dealing
I been spending every single penny that I earn
Collect it and invest it
In my music
In myself
In my upcoming career
I got choices
Make decisions
Friends they come and disappear
But the real ones stay by my side
Day ones until I die
Pull up on 'em in a new ride
When I make it they wonโ€™t be surprised
โ€˜Cause they know that I been working every day and night
To get my money up and fucking writing rhymes
Feeling myself when I walk in the spot
Studio my kitchen and Iโ€™m like a pot
Cookinโ€™ up fire
They call me the Rock
Hitting you hard like a gunshot
Sneakers on the feet
Just do it
Coming from the streets
Then prove it
Killing my enemies
I shoot โ€˜em
But I donโ€™t feel the need
To lose it
Iโ€™ll beat em up like Bruce Lee
Iโ€™m solo
No tag team
Iโ€™m runnin' tracks like UB
Runnin'
Runnin'
I ainโ€™t never stopping
Imma keep on going
Runnin'
I been runnin' to the top
I been runnin' for my spot
Time to get that guap
I been runnin' for the fam
I been runnin' for the gang
Runnin'
Gotta maintain
Runnin'
I been runnin' to the top
I been runnin' for my spot
Time to get that guap
I been runnin' for the fam
I been runnin' for the gang
