Lyrics

Yeah, still runnin
Mmm, yeah, still runnin
Yeah, still runnin
Got me lost in my thoughts again

City full of ghosts, I'm just tryna find a friend
Woke up to the same pain, same rain on the windowpane
Heart heavy like the chains that I chose to maintain
Demons doin' laps inside my head every night

I tell them not to date, but they still wanna fight
Scars on my soul, but I wear them like designer
Turn all my losses into something that's finer
Late nights, no sleep, just a glow from the streetlights

Wonderin' if the tunnel ever shows a little light
I keep movin' though, feet on the concrete
Runnin' from the old me, can't afford to be weak
Runaway shadows, I can't shake them off me

Piano in my ears, tellin' stories about me
Live or die tryin', that's the only option
Heart cold, but the fire still burnin' in my chest
Mmm, runaway shadows

Dancin' in the dark with me, breathing my blood
It's the life they carved for me
One life, one fight, no escapin' what it is
So I live anyway, yeah

I seen kings lose they crowns in a single bad decision
Turn my back on fate, love, now I'm in a different position
Smoke clouds in the air, blurrin' all my visions
But the mirror don't lie, I still see the missions

They want me broke, afforded, givin' up the fight
I just laugh in the silence of another lonely night
Carry my own weight, no complainin' bout the load
Every scar trapped in a story that I wrote

From the bottom lookin' up, the view kinda clear
Even when the sky gray, I still hold it down here
No handouts, just hands out for the ones that I trust
The rest get the silence, that's the only language I trust

Runaway shadows, I can't shake them off me
Piano in my ears, tellin' stories about me
Live or die tryin', that's the only option
Heart cold, but the fire still burnin' in my chest

Runaway shadows, dancin' in the dark with me
Grittin' my blood, it's the life they carved for me
One life, one fight, no escapin' what it is
So I live anyway, yeah

I live anyway
I'm still here
But I'm still here
Cold world

Final chapter unfoldin', I can feel the pages turnin
Lessons and the losses, that's the part I'm learnin
No fairy-tellin' and just the dirt and the grind
But every time I fall, I get back up on my time

The piano keeps playin' like it knows my whole life
Minor keys and minor setbacks
Still I write through the pain, through the rain
Through the nights with no end, I just breathe

Reload and do it all again
It's the real, no cap, no filter on the lens
Dark days, but I'm built for whatever they send
Runaway shadows, I can't shake them off me

Piano in my ears, tellin' stories about me
Live or die tryin', that's the only option
Heart cold, but the fire still burnin' in my chest
Ooh

Runaway shadows, dancin' in the dark with me
Grit in my blood, it's the life they carved for me
One life, one fight, no escapin' what it is
So I live anyway, yeah

Live anyway
Live anyway, yeah
Runaway
