Runnin' Lyrics - Pharrell Williams

Summertime in Virginia was a oven (oven) 

All the kids eating ice cream with their cousins (cousins) 

I was studying while you was playing the dozens (dozens) 

Don't act like you was there when you wasn't 

Runnin' from the man (man) 

Runnin' from the badge (badge) 

Don't act like you was there when you wasn't 

Runnin' toward our plans (plans) and the judges hands (hands) 

Don't act like you was there when you wasn't 

I know they say you crawl for your own 

But in my mind I already jog 

If I stand still I cannot get far 

They want the Moon, I'm on Mars

Sometime my mind dives deep 

When I'm runnin' 

I don't want no free ride 

I'm just sick and tired of runnin' 

Some nights I cry 

Cause I can see the day comin' 

Together we fight 

Oh, but no more runnin' 

You and I are not different from each other (other) 

Shut our eyes, when we slumber I see numbers (numbers) 

Black and white, we're computers, I am colored (colored) 

Don't act like you was there when you wasn't 

From runnin' to exams (exams) to jobs for a man (man) 

Don't act like you was there when you wasn't 

In the law of the land (land) the women were often banned (banned) 

Don't act like you was there when you wasn't

I know they say you crawl for your own 

But in my mind I already jog 

If I stand still I cannot get far 

They want the Moon, I'm on Mars 

Sometime my mind dives deep 

When I'm runnin' 

I don't want no free ride 

I'm just sick and tired of runnin' 

Some nights I cry 

Cause I can see the day comin' 

Together we fight 

Oh, but no more runnin' 

I know they say you crawl for your own 

But in my mind I already jog 

If I stand still I cannot get far 

They want the Moon, I'm on Mars 

Sometime my mind dives deep 

When I'm runnin' 

I don't want no free ride 

I'm just sick and tired of runnin' 

Some nights I cry 

Cause I can see the day comin' 

Together we fight 

Oh, but no more runnin' 

No
