Lynell - Running (feat. Tone Jonez)

I don't know where I'm going, but I'm running
I go far and far and far and keep on running
I don't know where I'm going, but I'm running
I go far and far and far and keep on running

Gotta get me outta me just so I can see the King
Cuz what I'm doing got me headed down the opposite His dream
Feeling tangled in these bushes burning kush I wanna cling but I really wanna go
Hate this fight inside of me
Wish I didn't have to swing
I wish I didn't even have to deal with all this stuff I'm facing right in front of me
People giving their two pennies while they comment call it common sense
I know they're telling lies but I'm starting to believe
See the me I wanna be and the me I gotta die to
Never even felt this inner conflict in myself
Ever Since I met my Jesus I've been feeling someone trying to
Pull me out this gutter turning me to someone else
Who am i supposed to be
What's my aim if it ain't pushing for a better me or for the image I intend to be...
Cuz I'm searching for a purpose, for a better me that's worth it
I ain't certain I'm a find it if I look inside of me
Tell me where to go

I don't know where I'm going, but I'm running
I go far and far and far and keep on running
I don't know where I'm going, but I'm running
I go far and far and far and keep on running

Making money's meaning more to me than being a provider for my family
My worth is in the numbers of my salary
I've gotta be the one that makes the money, counting bills like they're calories
Man I love it how they count on me
The prides before the fall and I forget that I'm a vessel
Make my own agenda like my Gods plans for me are lesser
I ain't that much of a stresser but that overtime is taking all of mine
My wife, she hates it like another woman in our marriage
But I say it's for the family
AKA it's for my sanity cuz being needed's what I need to be
I pursue what makes me feel good,
But really what's it worth if I am gaining all this world and losin my identity
I used to be about my Jesus He was all that really mattered
Man my life was all for worship I don't really know what happened
Gave Him more than just my rapping
I gave Him all of me
Then I took me back
And it's a fact that's why I'm running

Im running
I'm running
I'm running
I'm running
I'm running - I'm running
I'm running - I'm running
I'm running
I'm running - I'm running

Ran away and far away from that
Traded truth for prodigalities
But if I come back home now will He take me back
Or will he always be just mad at me
Cuz on my list I know I put Him last
But I pray to God He won't just hold me strictly to my past like everybody else
So father please take all of me and put me on the better path
Make me a better man

I don't know where I'm going, but I'm running
I go far and far and far and keep on running
I don't know where I'm going, but I'm running
I go far and far and far and keep on running
