Nikes by Travis Thompson Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2021

[Intro]
Running circles in my Nikes, ooh-ooh-ooh
Gotta spend quietly forever, ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 1]
Doin' it to myself again
Chasin' thrills, damagin' to my health again
Throw the hood up, go stealth again
I'm the cap' of the ship and ship sinkin'
Still seen shit I ain't let sink in
Seen it all change in one blink, man
I got fam who can't read treated like kingpins
Why it's fuck the law?
You, ya ho too, I'ma cuff the broad
Who done held me down
When a boy was down bad on the ledge and I felt like jumpin' off?
And it's true, I'm just a youngin', dawg, but it's proof
I get it jumpin' off when I do
Just what the fuck I was put here for, I'm tellin' you
I've been runnin' in circles (I've been runnin' in circles)
Convincin' myself I'm dеservin'
Of happiness, paper and honеstly
Whatever make me feel worth it
With the same Nike's on
That I should prolly should not have bought
But if I'm runnin', I'm runnin' in style
It's things you just can't stop, yeah
 
[Chorus]
I've been runnin' circles in my Nikes for a long time
Back and forth, been runnin' suicides for a long time
Livin' do or die for a long time
I been out my mind for a long time
I've been runnin' circles in my Nikes for a long time
Back and forth, been runnin' suicides for a long time
Livin' do or die for a long time
I been out my mind for a long time
[Verse 2]
I been out the way tryna get it and maintain
Puttin' two to the pavement to try to paper my name's sake
Prophecy came a day late
Devil said, "What's yo day rate?"
Got you two for the poolside
Your problems be gone by daybreak
But it's mayday. mayday, this is not what it was
Heyday, heyday, make 'em coughin' it up
Wait, wait, they say I'm a problem or some'?
They say where you get your confidence from?
It's the fact I did it and baby, back then, I told ya
You say it's written, it isn't a
Nd if it is, the book closin'
I threw my troops in the ocean
Told 'em swim with me northbound
Double dosin' and floatin'
Ain't worried 'bout how that shore sound
Everythin' so off course now and I love it
And when they ask what I been up to
I don't tell 'em nothin', I been runnin'

[Chorus]
Said I've been runnin' circles in my Nikes for a long time
Back and forth, been runnin' suicides for a long time
Livin' do or die for a long time
I been out my mind for a long time
I've been runnin' circles in my Nikes for a long time
Back and forth, been runnin' suicides for a long time
Livin' do or die for a long time
I been out my mind for a long time
[Intro]
Running circles in my Nikes, ooh-ooh-ooh
Gotta spend quietly forever, ooh-ooh-ooh
Sippin' cocaine tea with angels, ooh-ooh-ooh
