◊ Got to run

I don't care a lot about the things that you know
You got what you got but that's the way that it goes
But I've been looking for all of my life
Looking for something that I can't find

I've got to run
I've got to run
I've got to run
I've got to run
I've got to run

You always tell me how you feel so strong
But I saw you in a world where you don't belong
You tried to make me be what you see
I used to be a prisoner but now I am free

I've got to run
I've got to run
I've got to run
I've got to run
I've got to run

You got to get yourself out of this place
You've got to get out while you've still got your faith
'cause everybody here they seem so dead
they keep putting poison into your head

you got to run
you got to run
you got to run
you got to run
you got to run,got to run,where do you come from
you got to run,got to run,where do you come from
you got to run,got to run,where do you come from
you got to run,got to run,where do you come from
you got to run
 

◊ Do it all the time

I'M BLOWING OUT,AND I'M TAKING OFF
AND I'M GETTING IN, TO EVERYTHING

I'VE GOT A REASON TO LOVE MYSELF AGAIN
I'VE GOT A REASON TO LOSE MYSELF AGAIN
NOW I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN
NOW I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO DECIEVE ME

I'M GETTING OFF ON TAKING IN
AND I'M THINKING OF TRYING AGAIN

I'VE GOT A REASON TO LOVE MYSELF AGAIN
I'VE GOT A REASON TO LOSE MYSELF AGAIN
NOW I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN
NOW I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO DECIEVE ME-YEAH

I'VE GOT MADNESS IN MY MIND AND THE DEVIL IN MY EYES
HE SPEAKS TO ME FROM TIME TO TIME AND HE TELLS ME I'M ALRIGHT-I'M ALRIGHT-I'M ALRIGHT
I'VE BEEN TOLD TO DO WHAT I DO,I'VE BEEN TOLD TO DO WHAT I DO,I'VE BEEN TOLD TO DO WHAT I do AND TO DO IT ALL THE TIME-ALL THE TIME-TIME

I'M BREAKING THROUGH AND I'LL SEE IT THROUGH
AND I'LL FIND IT OUT AND I'LL BLOW IT OUT

I'VE GOT A REASON TO LOVE MYSELF AGAIN
I'VE GOT A REASON TO LOSE MYSELF AGAIN
YOU GOT TO FIND SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN
'CAUSE IT'S UP TO YOU HOW YOUR TREATED-YEAH
