STOP RUNNING AWAY lyrics

[Part I]

[Intro]
Am I trashy?
It’s attractive
She just wanna run

[Verse 1]
Running away seems to be a problem everybody faces these days
Try your best to escape, I try my best to evade
‘Cause I’ve been afraid, get out of the way
I'm in my way and I can't keep up the charade
Sometimes I wish you stayed, but I'd be in hell
I wish you could feel how I felt when “See you soons” turned to “Farewells”
Tell yourself “It’s all my fault” and “I f*cked up”
So you give up (Oh)
Started thinking you weren’t enough (Oh)
Ask yourself why do you love (Oh)
All’s going well until you run

[Part II]

[Chorus]
Stop running away
Whеn you die, can’t take this sh*t to your grave
Stop ignoring your problеms to face ‘em another day
Before it’s too late, stop running away
[Post-Chorus]
(Away, away, away, away, away, away)
Stop running away
(A-A-Away, away, away, away, away, away)
Stop running away

[Verse 2]
Haha, damn, you know that sh*t ain’t gon’ work
You call me up at 2 AM and say you wanna converse
You call me up at 3 AM, you tripping over a verse
You calling me a piece of sh*t, guess that comparison works
Tough to decide
I took your love and put that sh*t to the side
'Cause I can't even lie, our relationship died
But you still f*ck with my mind, it’s f*cking me up inside (Okay)
Past few years coulda went a couple of ways
I turned 18, I ain't wanna celebrate
Almost took my life, I told ‘em, “Open the gates”
But I'm too scared to die, f*ck it, I gotta stay

[Chorus]
Stop running away
When you die, can’t take this sh*t to your grave
Stop ignoring your problems to face ‘em another day
Before it’s too late, stop running away
[Post-Chorus]
(Away, away, away, away, away, away)
Stop running away
(A-A-Away, away, away, away, away, away)
Stop running away

[Part III]

[Intro]
Lately, I've been trying to find some peace of mind in the darkest times
But your shining light's in the way of mine
Maybe there’s a story to tell
Expose myself ‘cause I got records to sell
Could wear my heart on my sleeves or I can save myself
But I can’t save myself, so I'ma let ‘em know

[Verse 3]
f*cked up, I'm in awful condition
I went back home, probably the toughest decision
Felt so alone, heard all of my old friends was dissing
I just write songs, drop ‘em, promise they still won’t listen
How can I afford to love? Can barely pay my tuition
Currently, overall, I'm in a f*cked up position
I look back at the past and ask myself if I miss it
But I'ma keep going forward 'cause, f*ck it, I got a vision
Uh, damn, this here's as real as it gets
I spent a night in the hospital tripping over my ex
Almost dropped outta college, man, I was f*cking depressed
All this sh*t in a year like how I'm supposed to forget?
Try my best to ignore it, so I move on to the next
Turns out living in ignorance isn’t really so blessed
Stop running away ‘cause you might live in regret
Stop running away and live that sh*t with your chest
