Bad things happen to the people you love
And you find yourself praying up to heaven above
But honestly, I've never had much sympathy
'Cause those bad things I always saw them coming for me
I'm gonna run, run away, run, run away, run away
Runaway and never come back
Run, run away, run, run away, run away
Show 'em that your color is black
Bad things happen to the people you love
And you find yourself praying up to heaven above
But honestly, I've never had much sympathy
'Cause those bad things always saw them coming for me
It would take some time just to see me shine
For the whole world to see me here with all of my light
But honestly, I've given up on all the fight
So that one day I'll have you all wrapped up in my night
I'm gonna run, run away, run, run away, run away
Runaway and never come back
Run, run away, run, run away, run away
Show 'em that your color is black
I'm gonna run, run away, run, run away, run away
Runaway and never come back
Run, run away, run, run away, run away
Show 'em that your color is black
Bad things happen to the people you love
And you find yourself praying up to heaven above
But honestly, I've never had much sympathy
'Cause those bad things I always saw them coming for me
Bad things happen to the people you love
And you'll find yourself praying up to heaven above
But honestly, I've never had much sympathy
'Cause next time you're praying you'll be praying for me
