Letra Run the races Santigold

Run the races

Hello, what is going on, something strange?
Where do I go?
It's coming round to meet me
Gone around the world two times
To find something to save me here
But these days, it seems I'm of a different kind

It may not be safe but can't hide from what will come
And it may not be sane but I'm going out there
It may not be made for me
Lord knows what I will dare to find
But these days, you can't run from the races

I said, "Who told you could get a piece of my heart?
Cause you see, I'm no runaway
So go ahead, I'm gonna give you a head start."
I said, "Who told you could get a piece of my heart?
Cause you see, I'm no runaway
So go ahead, I'm gonna give you a head start."

Hello, I've come a long way to find this place
And what it's come to
Build it all on body, not faith
Say it'll be that tie you break
And a hallowed spark will find you
So if I wanna steep up the dream
Gotta take my place out on the line

It may not be safe but can't hide from what will come
And it may not be sane but I'm going out there
It may not be made for me
Lord knows what I will dare to find
But these days, you can't run from the races

I said, "Who told you could get a piece of my heart?
Cause you see, I'm no runaway
So go ahead, I'm gonna give you a head start."
I said, "Who told you could get a piece of my heart?
Cause you see, I'm no runaway
So go ahead, I'm gonna give you a head start."

Steady, don't ease up, get in my game
Can you see me now lookin' both ways?
All night dreaming I'd taken the race
Headin' out, do you not see in my face
I'm not playin' I'm 'a push it all day
Head down, feet forward edge of my faith
