Summertime in Virginia was the oven.Oven.All the kids eating ice cream with their cousins.Cousins.I was studying while you was playing in the dozens.Dozens.Don't act like you was there when you wasn't.Running from the man.Running from the badge.Don't act like you was there when you wasn't.Running short of plans.In the judge's hands.Don't act like you was there when you wasn'tI know they say,crawl for you allBut in my mind, I already drawIf I stand still,how can I get far?They want the moon,I'm on Mars Sometimes my mind diesDeepWhen I'm runningI don't want no fear, right?I'm just sick and tired of runningSomenights I cry,cause I can see the day coming.Together we'll fly,over no more running.You and I are no different from each other.Shut our eyes when we slumber, I see numbers.Black and white world,future is I am colored.Don't act like you was there when you wasn't.From running to exams,jobs for a man.Don't act like you was there when you wasn't.And the law on the land,where women were often banned.Don't act like you was there when you wasn't.I know they've sent the call for you all,But in my mind I already told.If I stand still,I cannot get far.they want the moon I'm on Mars sometimes my mindI don't want no fearI'm just sick and tired of runningSome nights I cryCause I can see the day comingTogether we flyOh, but no more running.I know they say,go for you all.But in my mind, I already chose.If I stand still,how can I get far?They want the moon, I'm on Mars.Sometimes my mind dives deep when I'm running.I don't want no fear, right?I'm just sick and tired of running.Some nights are cold,because I can see the day coming.Together we flyBut no more runningOh
