[Chorus]
I can't keep running in place
I can't keep running in place, gotta stay on the move
Running in place
Running in place, running in place
I can't keep running in place
I can't keep running in place, gotta stay on the move
Running in place, running in place
[Verse 1]
For every twenty noes you get a maybe
And every day people is acting shady, like oak trees it's crazy
Maybe I might- lose my sight just for a second
But my drive is relentless, and my heart's like an engine
If I-
Burn out, before I reach the exit, tell the people I reject it, and I'm sorry I was selfish
Only times I felt alive was the times when I connected
Blood me in, I'll pay for the sins that I collected
Uh
Lesson learned, and mission accepted
I sectored my dreams, I'm spending every waking second trying to put together the seams
Another bullet in the chamber, waitin' for the trigger to squeeze
I can't put my mind at ease, it's hard to breathe
Put the [?] on your chest, and your heart on your sleeve
Ain't a thing I couldn't achieve, man I'm goin' with the breeze
Can't look back when you need to build speed
Move
[Chorus]
I can't keep running in place
I can't keep running in place, gotta stay on the move
Running in place
Running in place, running in place
I can't keep running in place
I can't keep running in place, gotta stay on the move
Running in place, running in place
[Verse 2]
Yeah, my mind's eye helps me hear things clearly
I see what you're saying, but you still can't hear me
I keeps it moving on the road to where I'm going
I don't when Imma get there but I'm sure that I'll get better
When I check-one-two, it really makes me wonder what the rest gonna do
I catch my breath, run through
What's left of the competition standing I can do it better
Flow is metric, but won't stop in any measure
However, sometimes life is like a treadmill
Heard somebody say that, all's well that ends well
Honestly I can't tell if I'm in control or not
It's more than odd these sort of thoughts get me mortified
I think about the future, I cringe at my computer
It doesn't really matter, whatever seems to suit you
Intact when loosin' up tracks
Adapt when you're listenin' back, react
[Chorus]
I can't keep running in place
I can't keep running in place, gotta stay on the move
Running in place
Running in place, running in place
I can't keep running in place
I can't keep running in place, gotta stay on the move
Running in place, running in place
[Bridge]
Get pass the sentiments, work hard, relentless
No time to waste, embraced all the elements
Suits the up, rock, now I chop the measurements down into phrases, translate for stages
We turnin' pages, cats stuck for ages, in the same paragraph of rules they created
We memorize the rules and then we break them
Outta the norm, travelin' storm
[?]
[Chorus]
I can't keep running in place
I can't keep running in place, gotta stay on the move
Running in place
Running in place, running in place
I can't keep running in place
I can't keep running in place, gotta stay on the move
Running in place, running in place
(Can't keep running in place)
