Running

Life is a marathon
A maze, a magic, a mistery
When I quest to make a mark on history
Was sometimes trouble by the terrain
That's tough but the aim remains the same
The mountain top, the podium
Breaking into the tape
To the end of the race despite all the pain

I keep on running but my feet don't get tired
I keep on running but my feet don't get tired
I keep on running but my feet don't get tired
(Feet don't get tired)
My feet don't get tired
But my feet don't get tired

Givin' up, what's that?
Life how you're runnin' in circles
Man what trap
We on the go as soon as a feet on the ground
Make contact in fact
Each step taken might not be exact
But we grow through the pain, and every
Bruise, every scratch, don't ya?
Hit those knees up, don't skip
Run through the competition, the division
Your minds negative dimensions
Don't let your doubts weigh you down
Feelin' suffocate every time that it's found
Don't put matter over your mind
Breathe your dreams
Catch a wind closer to your finish lines
Where each wrap battle your time, your grind
Don't be alarmed you in the final scratch
Man pump those arms, kill that noise
Remember your joy, your passion
Look at the distance you're passin
I'm askin', it's exhaustin' but what ain't
Show them you can when they
Think that you can't
You ain't got no restraints
Your DNA is a gift
Kick, rock, row, hop on your hips
Grip your gain and lift your gain
It's a beautiful mission
Your song plays alone, nobody listens
The effects are stunnin'
One foot in front of the next
These steps keep drummin'
Your heart beat beats to the rythm
All you gotta do is, keep runnin'

Keep movin' your feet
Even when you feel weak
Don't look to the ground
That's a part of defeat
Stop lookin' around, focus hard on the beat
Your heart racing you now
But you in every week
Enough a day, enough a dollar
But they got you wondering if
If life is a gift, and you're on the list
And what did you miss
There's gotta be more, cannot always be this
See you get either quit or make excuses
How you used to be a part of the race
And you're runnin' in place
Feelin' disgraced your prodicy race
Now you're hiding your face
Put when I'm on the case
See, I don't know nobody strong livin'
That you could be as brave as you can
Stick to a plan don't worry who sees you
They might not understand
Not a word that you're sayin'
But observin' you play
Can be certain when say

In modern day bad karma
Is calling himself, God
And try to control, existance
Killin' mother nature's beaty and purpose
So when feel loose inside
Focus on accurate perception of reality
And let it strenghten mental capacity
And help nurture and mantain
Spiritual in a peace
No matter how the hards look, true first
Always to my walkin' dead
The playwright Shakespeare once said:
"Rage to the dying of a light
We must maintain a moral compass (Compass)

I keep on running but my feet don't get tired
