Running in Place by Noah Gillispie Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Natural disaster
Got me quick to think
I gotta go faster
Or in the quicksand I'll sink

I wanna be big chillin'
Be the realest
I don't want any ceilings
And I'm not alright
It feels like I'm just

[Chorus]
Running in Place
Running in Place
RIP, RIP, yeah
RIP, RIP
Running in Place

Running in Place
Running in Place
RIP, RIP, yeah
RIP, RIP
Running in Place
[Verse 2]
Chained up to my treadmill
No key to this lock
I Can't move I'm so still
Like a Hand on a broke clock

I can see the storm on the horizon
I can see my paradise the other way
I can hear the thunder like bison
But I can't escape, I'm Running in place

[Chorus]
Running in Place
Running in Place
RIP, RIP, yeah
RIP, RIP
Running in place

Running in Place
Running in Place
RIP, RIP, yeah
RIP, RIP
Running in Place

[Bridge]
I want another dollar, gotta finish this rat race
But when I hear the gun shot i trip and fall in disgrace
Frustrated to the max I got to get up and run
But I'm paralyzed by knowledge that I'm not number one
So I'll sharpen my swords, and sharpen my tongue
I'm too old to be the best, but too good to be young
So I'm back to the grind, back to the drawing board
Go hard until I die, don't care about the scoreboard

Unless me or my homies are on the tippy top
It might be hard but I gotta let my beats drop
And I've been working on my songs since 2008
So the payoff for this reward will be great

So I put on my happy face, strap it down so it won't move
Go for lift off into space, show Mr. Musk hope he approve
But this anchor holds me down, this ship will never get to space
I'm the Sideous of this town, but I'm running in place

[Chorus]
Running in Place
Running in Place
RIP, RIP, yeah
RIP, RIP
Running in Place

Running in Place
Running in Place
RIP, RIP, yeah
RIP, RIP
Running in Place
