Seven Laps

I was taught that as a boy you fear no man Feel like I've been running my whole life and I know that Worried bout the labels on my feet but it don't Matter ironically we all gonna end up with toe tags So I'm a kick it with my tribe word to Phife Dawg Treat every moment like the one I'm alive for And know that we're alive for the moments we'd die for After all the benders made me feel like a cyborg I spread my wings then I turned to the bar fly Starting reading Luke then I turned from the dark side Dodging fat lips while I was chasing the far side Made me wanna Bolt like Usain on the start line I can feel my body rioting It's like it knows that I have been Running my whole life No more practise runs like Iverson Cause boi I know that I have been Running my whole life I AIN'T RUNNIN' NO MORE I'm saying tho I ain't RUNNIN' I ain't RUNNIN' no more It took an ER to turn a sob story to a sob(ER) story Was chasing highs and not surprised that the lows adored me At 25 I passed out on a treadmill Doctor told me my heart was going mental Literally but figuratively too I was like "you literally sound like Biggie my dude But tell me it isn't true, Tell me it's just a bad dream fuelled By the alcohol, the codeine, the caffeine" Probably has a lot to do with what I have adopted Top drawer of pain pills, closet alcoholic I've been long distance jogging like I'm running from my Problems Said enough of being the Hunted I'm the hunter like S Thompson When I lay my head tonight man, Freddie's got it coming No more medication stunting every prayer I said bout crushing All the fear and anxiety, clearly so quietly is gripping society I'm ending, I'ma fight this beast
