To my people doing time To my people rest in peace (y'all ready for the refugee camp?) Introducing Earth, Wind & Fire Yah yah yah Come on come on come on No money in my pocket Gotta get a no limit So I became America's most wanted All I ever wanted was a fancy car A crib for my mom and a mastercard Baby you know it's in Hollywood New cop flicks with Clint Eastwood Went from a teen to a young adult No excuses aint't my fault Runaway We living like runaways Wake up Stretching in the morning Trying to make it through the day Brush my teeth Hit the streets Where there's heat We afford to beef Hoping one day We don't have to run away (Gotta Escape) I didn't want to runaway But I had to get a way yo (gotta get away) We didn't want to runaway But we had to get away yo (gotta get away) I didn't want to leave astray But sometimes I gotta get away yo (gotta get away) I didn't want to go away But I had to go away yo Yo G&B where you at? Momma came home from a hard days work At day time a maid at night time a nurse Work so hard to make sure we survived Living a ghetto paradise Sometimes I wake up screaming in the middle of the night Hoping that darkness brings me light Praying for that better day where we won't have to runaway Runaway We living like runaways Wake up Stretching in the morning Trying to make it through the day Brush my teeth Hit the streets Where there's heat We afford to beef Hoping one day We don't have to run away I didn't want to runaway But I had to get a way yo (gotta get away) We didn't want to runaway But we had to get away yo (gotta get away) I didn't want to leave astray But sometimes I gotta get away yo (gotta get away) I didn't want to go away But I had to go away yo Ladies and gentleman Earth, Wind & Fire Ba dow bo ba dow bo ba dow bo ba dow bo ba dow bo ba dow bo (da da da da da da ) (Feeling melly y'all) Ba dow bo Ba dow bo (More peace y'all) Ba dow bo Baw dow bo Ba dow bo Baw dow bo Bow da da da da Runaway We living like runaways Wake up Stretching in the morning Trying to make it through the day Brush my teeth Hit the streets Where there's heat We afford to beef Hoping one day We don't have to run away I didn't want to runaway But I had to get a way yo (gotta get away) We didn't want to runaway But we had to get away yo (gotta get away) I didn't want to leave astray But sometimes I gotta get away yo (gotta get away) I didn't want to go away But I had to go away yo I didn't want to runaway But I had to get a way yo (gotta get away) We didn't want to runaway But we had to get away yo (gotta get away) I didn't want to leave astray But sometimes I gotta get away yo (gotta get away) I didn't want to go away But I had to go away yo Yo y'all gonna make me do it I don't want to do it but here we go ba y ya bay y ya bay y ay y ay y ay y ay y ya ba da ba ba ba (Ain't no samples this is original baby) ba y ya bay y ya bay y ay y ay y ay y ay y ya (Put em up y'all) ba da ba ba ba (Refugees) Ba da ba ba ba ba ba Ba da ba ba ba ba ba da Ba da ba ba ba ba ba (I want to see everybody's hand in the air right now) y ay y ay y ay y ay y ya y ya (recognize the legends up in here) Uh!
