Running - Gil Scott-Heron/Jamie xx
Written by：Jamie Smith/Gil Scott/Heron
Because I always feel like money
Not away
Because there is no such place
Because if there was I would have found it by now
Because it's easier to run
Easier than staying and finding out you're the only onewho didn't run
Because running will be the way
Your life and mine will be described
As in the long run
Or as in having given someone a run for his money
Or as in running out of time
Because running makes me look like everyone else
Though I hope there will ever be 'cause for that
Because I will be running in the other direction
Not running for cover
Because if I knew where cover was
I would stay there and never have to run for it
Not running for my life
Because I have to be running for something of
More value to be running and not in fear
Because the thing I fear cannot be escaped
Eluded avoided hidden from protected from
Gotten away from
Not without showing the fear as I see it now
Because closer clearer no sir nearer
Because of you and because of that nice
That you quietly quickly be causing
And because you're going to see me runing soon
Because you're going to know why I'm running then
You'll know then
Because I'm not going to tell you now
