Immanuel Kairimuti
RUN from your ability not to let go
RUN like a fugitive
RUN like this dissonance is cognitive
RUN even when your legs are giving in
RUN from sentiments that are mentally diminishing
RUN cause only you can tell the difference
RUN until you start crawling
RUN with your body to the floor and keep going
RUN from the pretty women
RUN cause the love is money-driven
RUN from panhandling for coins
RUN cause you don’t see the point
RUN so you don’t sit in a cell
RUN like a turtle without its shell
RUN even if it means slowly but surely
RUN from the court and the jury
RUN from poverty
RUN cause this life is a monopoly
RUN away from the dice roll
RUN only towards the payroll
RUN from power misuse
RUN from emotional abuse
RUN more than the legs can take
RUN to the realisation of what’s real and what’s fake
RUN from reverse psychology
RUN from the one who can’t forgive or take an apology
RUN from her
RUN towards her
RUN cause looks are deceiving
RUN from giving and not receiving
RUN cause she’s uncertain
RUN so you don’t carry her burdens
RUN with scarred feet
RUN cause you can’t accept defeat
RUN cause dominance is what you obtain
RUN cause there’s no point to prove or anything to gain
RUN from friendships that aren’t loyal
RUN because behind your back, they talk dirt about you
RUN cause you know where you’re running to
It’s either they run with you or run from you.
