Stic.man - Runner's High lyrics

[Bridge] A journey of a thousand miles begins one step at a time [RUN] I refuse to sit back on the side and let life keep pa**ing me by [RUN] Pushing forward at a comfortable pace, the race is not for the swift I just take it in stride Both feet on the ground, but it feel like I'm touching the sky No drug in my veins I got a Runner's High [Verse 1: Stic.Man] I put my soul on the concrete, the rhythm of my breath controls my heart beat Adrenaline pumping, leg muscles working I take off on the runway, the asphalt is my airport But I fly with my feet on the floor Get away for an hour or more When I run I can feel the breeze I feel free and at ease Like a bird flying over the sea Like an African Gazelle running wild and free I see the dirt roads in Kenya, the Masai's feet And its the same blood that runs through me When it feels like I'm running on empty Or running out of time Or stress keep running through my mind I resolve to continue Keep my chest up pushing forward Overstanding everything has to run it's course My legs are my wings they allow me to soar and endure [Chorus] This life is a journey Some will go and some are coming Like a river keeps on running Find a way This life is a journey Some will go and some are coming On the path forever learning Stay in the race [Verse 2: Stic.Man] Put, one foot in front of the other Hit the ground running the streets under the rubber Running through the hood, sewage running through the gutter Kids growing up hungry with barely running water I see the little brother, little league pop warner Wanna' be a running back, its just him and his mother No father, and she knows if he run on the corner he gonner So the football field is where he running for cover We all running in some form or another If not to score a touchdown just to go a step further Watch the hurdles Remember the rabbit moved fast but he came in last after the turtle I won't waste my time running in circles I know where I'm going and I'mma get there with focus I go for the goal like Jackie Joyner The race is not for the swift, its a test of endurance [Chorus] [Female voice talking on running] It's a mind and body connection [RUN] Yes it is a painful journey, at times And adrenaline is running and if your calves are k**ing you What you wanna' think Struggling What you wanna' think instead of Wow this is really difficult I'm having a tough time What you wanna' think is I'm giving it my all If you're having a particularly hard race you try to picture, focus on somebody in front of you. Pretend like they're pulling you up, like giving you a rope like getting you there, getting you over that hill, up and over [Bridge] A journey of a thousand miles begins one step at a time I refuse to sit back on the side and let life keep pa**ing me by Pushing forward at a comfortable pace, the race is not for the swift I just take it in stride Both feet on the ground, but it feel like I'm touching the sky No drug in my veins I got a Runner's High [Chorus] ft Martin Luther adlibs
