Running by Speech Debelle for the breathe. EP

lyrics

So calm, if this weather persist,
I’ll adjust my thrifts; need a new wardrobe.
Yo! My style Isis, my muse, my change views are through you.
Your eyes smile, windows to your upper room,
Third eye flutters whenever we share cues.
What? That’s how you feel too.
This is mental and we are meant to.
I seem to have a thing for you,
Purposeful in your plans I’m inspired by you.
Without having a clue you inspire the youths
And I can see a future in you ‘cause you nourish you roots.
I can see your lineage has put the power in you,
Mental physical, spiritual too,
I can’t seem to find the space to get the message to you
But if it was reciprocated then I wouldn’t have to run to you.

‘cause I’m running, I keep running
I keep running, running, oh, running to your heart
I know I can’t keep running to your heart
I know I can’t keep running to your heart
I know I can’t keep running to your heart
I know I can’t keep running to your heart

I’m just giving you the facts, every whastapp I get a heart attack
I overreact, your words are vague,
Your intent is straight; I’ve created a maze
I over analyse when I’m relaying the play and you centre stage,
The curtains drop and I stand there with nothing to say.
The crowd looks in wait uncomfortable in their gaze,
Unrequited love is shame.
Pages turn, chapter’s change, what are these dreams I paint,
The want and the need, battle for the space,
That’ll make the love bring the pain.
I guess the ego comes alive when the fears are never tamed,
I’ve fallen for you it won’t magically go away.
The beauties when the beast gets some recognition,
gotta stop running to you, running to a vision.

‘cause I’m running, I keep running
I keep running, running, oh, running to your heart
I know I can’t keep running to your heart
I know I can’t keep running to your heart
I know I can’t keep running to your heart
I know I can’t keep running to your heart

If I’m running to you what do I loose
I need this space for love to come through
It’s better for me to get over this need,
I’m running from you and running from me


I can’t be happy with a piece, the little that I get back.
Your smile as you turn to me but it never really meant that,
‘Cause your heart don’t yearn for me,
Your body don’t burn for me,
This lust don’t work for me,
It’s taking a toll on me.
I can’t be happy with a piece, the little that I get back.
Your smile as you turn to me but it never really meant that,
‘Cause your heart don’t yearn for me,
Your body don’t burn for me,
This lust don’t work for me,
It’s taking a toll on me.


I know I can’t keep running to your heart
I know I can’t keep running to your heart
I know I can’t keep running to your heart
I know I can’t keep running to your heart
