[Hook]
What are you running from?
Don’t wait for tomorrow
In this world, there’s only one of you
The sun doesn’t follow

What are you running from?
Don’t wait for tomorrow
In this world, there’s only one of you
The sun doesn’t follow

[Verse 1]
Moving, moving, moving monolithic often has its perks for what it’s worth
A martyr’s vision has ‘em enlisted from birth if we listen to the chirps of the birds singing when morning comes
It’s inevitable to hold hands with dreams even if it seems the plan isn’t working
We keep working, stay in the light, no one’s perfect, stay in the fight and find purpose
Knowing your call is enveloped is relevant to your journey and development
Any can tell if a smile is fake, if shoulders can hold the weight, but do what you do
It’s all up to you, you, I seem to enjoy the view
Resting on a ledge of blessings, my hedge of protection askew
Dove into a sea of sound where I finally found a clue
Gotta hold my own, my home needs me, I’m grown
Here to nurture and water my own seedlings and keep breathing
Watching my harvest bloom inside of the darkest room
Like I got points to prove and I’m not running

[Hook]
What are you running from?
Don’t wait for tomorrow
In this world, there’s only one of you
The sun doesn’t follow

What are you running from?
Don’t wait for tomorrow
In this world, there’s only one of you
The sun doesn’t follow

[Verse 2]
You can’t hide, run all you like
And wonder why parts of yourself are on the sideline
And you don’t feel whole
Any more than a single particle of stardust in the bargain knoll of Milky Way space, silky gray faces walk this place displaced and aimless
They were looking for an easy way out
Easy way out, easy way out
They were looking for an easy way out of malarky
But fell deeper into the patriarchy, starting to call their own for shark feed
The bark bleeds starkly, the green earth is darkening
We kill billions, still eight hundred mil starving
Rearrange what’s important, all one orchid in the orbiting orchard

[Hook]
What are you running from?
Don’t wait for tomorrow
In this world, there’s only one of you
The sun doesn’t follow

What are you running from?
Don’t wait for tomorrow
In this world, there’s only one of you
The sun doesn’t follow
