Run For The Sun by Taskforce Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2004

[Verse 1 - Chester P]
This life here raised me
Child of the concrete daydreams
Loose on the city in the realms of mayhem
Twelve years young in the sling o' the pavement
No education, lifestyle basic
Broke down trainers and snotty nosed faces
Play amongst crime in the dim-lit places
Where dimwitted agents handcuff our idols
And green eyed monsters schemed for a title
The vortеx of hunger in a hurricanes motion
Sucks in the finеst and spits out corruption
Angels are falling like rain on the junction
Junkies are rising for the next bit of substance
The states loose cannon, wild drunk stallion
Stroll through the shadows in the valley of sin
I'm deep like a galleon that's wrecked at sea
Some drown in the shallow as I shed my skin
I start from the beginning every time I rise
In the debris of forever, memory surrenders
And life keeps changing like day vs. night
I'm rendered a slave by the concepts of time
Trapped in the struggle of a poor mans thoughts
Caught in the warp of a mad mans mind
Held in the binds of a man made web
I'm talking to death on the edge of a cliff
Losing respect for the Gods and myself
Against all odds I will stand strong
And live for today like tomorrow won't come
'Cause yesterday's gone and all we got's now
So I hold my position for as long as it lasts
And I'll drink to the future and drink to the past
But I live for the moment and say my prayers
'Cause I've heard what they say about he who dares
[Hook]
(Run) Weak hearts run for the sun
(Run) Hide 'til the battles been won (Run)

(Run) Run like I'm aiming a gun
(Run) Hide 'til the battles been won (Run)

[Verse 2 - Farma G]
I lay awake at night time, staring at TV
Too much time spent thinking too deeply
Too much skunk weed and too much drinking
My mindstate's rotten and my head keeps sinking
Slapped back to no where, that's where I'm safe yea
Scrapes through mocking the truth like its not there
Fears for my feelings, turn me to concrete
I cement mixer of thoughts to make ends meet
See me in spotlights, watch how they envy
Thinking of living their life like Farma G
See, none of the above is understandable
When everything around you seems fake and unbelievable
Day one, up in the streets, stole my innocence
Man backstabbed me, girls were ridiculous
Mum, dad, what about love is when it hit home
My heart turned stone, and feelings were frozen
Long time chosen a path with no faith there
Lonely, chosen myself to live Hell here
Helped out the writing, when I am fighting
Head and my heart go oozing with ammo
Flow that smoothly, just for the music
But inside pleading for this is the truth
Bare witness to realness, I don't believe it
That is my problem, it's hard to deny then
That life ain't running away, from me slowly
Thinking 'bout grabbing myself and stop moaning
Slap myself out of a state we make mistakes
Learn from the moment or time has been stolen
Always suspicion and trust the ends broken
Breaking the chains that are breaking me open
Calls for the last stop, I'm going underground
I can't take no more, I'm going underground
[Hook]
(Run) Weak heart run for the sun
(Run) Hide 'til the battles been won (Run)

(Run) Run like I'm aiming a gun
(Run) Hide 'til the battles been won (Run)

(Run) Weak heart run for the sun
(Run) Hide 'til the battles been won (Run)

(Run) Run like I'm aiming a gun
(Run) Hide 'til the battles been won (Run)
