Yung Gritty - RUN Lyrics

Letter to the unborn children who've never seen the world
Paying for the sins of the father raising a baby girl
Inside the eyes of an infant you see the purity
Crawling around with a mother smiling and her insecurities

You wanted love but all you got in return
Was a circle full of hate, the devil watching you burn
Soul with a purpose in this body of life
A lack of wisdom so the old heads gave him advice

To be selective on the homies you choose ain't shit to prove
Won't ever win inside a circle that was destined to lose
To make it out the hood alive it's like a fantasy draft
It get political, especially if you brown or you black. Look

They murdering children where we from, Lord
They trafficking product through the slums, Lord
They making it harder to survive. Hard enough to feed the babies with inflation on the rise. Run
Away from all the violence, a lot of homies dying young

It's hard enough to live when all your problems weigh a ton. Still making minimum wage
Single mothers getting government aid. You see the cops you better run
Cause they gon' catch you with it plus they know you from the slums
Try to play the game but now they got you looking dumb. Cause they gon' lock you up in a cage

And you gon' probably feel like a slave. Tell me how we make America great
When there's wars outside everyday, they still digging our graves. The whole world under attack. And the masses still fall for the trap
The blind leading the blind. The media got everybody controlled. Like a video game, the gatekeepers locking the door
Killers thirsty for homicide or anything to get rich. Signed his name on that dotted line, he's now labeled a snitch. Damn

You don't get a pass to heaven cause you go to church. Only time they give you flowers when you in the dirt
Separate your soul from body underneath the earth. Posting burners on the gram and now he on a shirt. They say America the land of the free
Fill us up with vaccines, it's like the mark of the beast. It's a war in these streets. Only the strongest survive. Lot of people that starving and families living deprived. You better run
Away from all the violence. Lot of homies dying young. It's hard enough to live when all your problems weigh a ton. Still making minimum wage. Single mothers getting government aid

You see the cops, you better run. Cause they gon' catch you with it plus they know you from the slums. Try to play the game but now they got you looking dumb. Cause they gon' lock you up in a cage. And you gon' probably feel like a slave
