Can’t Keep Runnin’ Away

Lyrics

Oooh! Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh oh yeah Ooh! Ooh! Ooh-ooh-ooh! [Verse 1] When you wake up in the morning time (Time) If you look out the window see the children playing You got to get up and do your thing Feel it if you don't know how you think it's gonna swing [Chorus] Yeah, you can't keep runnin' away Tryna escape reality You can't keep runnin' away Because you know that it's got to be, yeah [Verse 2] Ooh, getting close to the day (Day) You got to get on out there and get yourself together Even more if things don't go your way You can't tuck and hide and wish to pray for another day [Chorus] So you can't keep runnin' away You got to face reality You can't keep runnin' away Because you know that it's got to be, yeah [Verse 3] The girl you love, she don't love you And your main baby doll is cheatin' on you too So whatcha gonna do? Are you gonna close your eyes? Remember this saying, "Only the strong can survive!" You can't keep runnin' away Because you got no place for you to go Unless you're on an island that you control But if it's not like that take this way deep down to soul, that You can't keep runnin' away When you wake up in the morning You got to face reality, yeah (Just take a look and you'll see me) (Girl) You can't keep runnin' away (Keep runnin', keep runnin', keep runnin') Because you know that it's got to be, yeah (Oh!) You can't keep runnin' away You try to escape reality, yeah You can't keep runnin' away Because you know that it's got to be, yeah [Spoken Interlude] So you'd like to get away, away from it all Thinking that your problems stop just 'cause you happen to be far Well if you find a place, a place where you can go Do us one big favor, come back and let the people know 'Cause I think we're stuck (Ooh!) in the middle 'Cause I think we're stuck (Ooh!) in the middle So if you go the smarts, give us some advice And if you don't, hey that's cool 'cause you're living your own life You see, people like us, will always be around Searchin' for the ins and outs gettin' this system off the ground! [Outro] Can't keep runnin' away (It's okay, it's fine) When you wake up in the morning and You can't keep runnin' away You can't keep runnin' Because you know that it's got to be, yeah I know that you know You can't keep runnin' away I know that you know Play this game reality
