Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Now little Lisa is only nine years old She's tryin' to figure out why the world is so cold Why she's all all alone and they never met her family Mamas always gone and she never met her daddy Part of her is missin' and nobody will listenin' Mama is on drugs gettin' high up in the kitchen Bringin' home men at different hours of the night Startin' with some laughs, usually endin' in a fight Sneak into her room while her mamas knocked out Tryin' to have his way and little Lisa says 'ouch' She tries to resist but then all he does is beat her Tries to tell her mom but her mama don't believe her Lisa is stuck up in the world on her own Forced to think that hell is a place called home Nothin' else to do but some get some clothes and pack She says she's bout to run away and never come back. Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Little Nicole is only ten years old She's steady tryin' to figure why the world is so cold Why she's not pretty and nobody seems to like her Alcoholic step dad always wanna strike her Yells and abuses, leaves her with some bruises Teachers ask questions she makin' up excuses Bleedin' on the inside, cryin' on the out It's only one girl really knows what she about Her name is lil' Stacey and they become friends Promise that they always be tight til the end Until one day lil' Stacey gets shot A drive by bullet went stray up on her block Now Nicole stuck up in the world on her own Forced to think that hell is a place called home Nothin' else to do but some get some clothes and pack She says she's bout to run away and never come back. Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Little Erica is eleven years old She's steady tryin' to figure why the world is so cold So she pops x to get rid of all the pain Plus she's havin' sex with a boy who's sixteen Emotions run deep and she thinks she's in love So there's no protection he's using no glove Never thinkin' bout the consequences of her actions Livin' for today and not tomorrows satisfaction The days go by and her belly gets big The father bails out he ain't ready for a kid Knowin' her mama will blow it all outta proportion Plus she lives poor so no money for abortion Erica is stuck up in the world on her own Forced to think that hell is a place called home Nothin' else to do but get her clothes and pack She say she's about to run away and never come back. Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love Runaway love
