[Lecrae - Run lyrics]
"And if anyone competes as an athlete
He does not win the prize unless
He competes according to the rules"
We just starting to show out
Wanna see, youngster?
You've never seen it like this
We going to represent Jesus Christ in
How we live our life
We got to walk on the street
True Christian soldier
To all the Christian soldiers
This is how we run the race, right?
We not going to stop and sin done tried this
Jesus Christ isn't dead!
You know your boy, Crae
Running for the prize, i'm gunnin'
The one that don't rust or
Break all of a sudden
The Holy Spirit got your boy doin' a dozen
Push up, push up, come on, work it out cousin
I run from the flesh, it be tryin' to rise
And I'm done with living
Gettin' drunk and high
I'm a son of El Shaddai, the most High
Who most def want me to do more then get by
I look in the sky and I'm so inspired
To sprint for a God whose my soul's desire
My sole's desire to run for Jesus
And give Him all the credit
Like I run for visa
I'm done with pieces, I found my dime
I run to the wife that the Lord provided
And we decided that we would run together for
God's glory alone homie we ain't lying
I run to the Word cause my soul is thirsty
No runnin from affliction though
They may hurt me
I do preach wrath but I speak on mercy
And grace by faith, you can call me churchy
Run, this is your race, boy run, don't stop
Run till your blood vessels bust like a Glock
Run so hard cause you want your reward
Boy run, boy run, now run some more
Run like a os' right there on the track
Run like Nascar now look back
Run so hard cause you want your reward
Boy run, now run, boy run some more
Naw I ain't sweaty and
My breath's pretty steady
My feet don't hurt and my legs ain't heavy
I'm still in the marathon
I keep the pace steady temptation is quick
But the Spirit stay ready
My eyes on the prize yeah
They fixed on Christ
Hydrated in the Word but the joints are tight
That's why I get with a coach
Who can stretch your boy who can push, pull
Train me and test your boy
And look up, look up yeah you heard the gun
That means run off the blocks, run!
The Son is where I stay focused
Avoiding sin and I pass the
Baton to the faithful men
And we never run in vain or for finite prizes
So when the race is done
There will be no surprises
The world says quit
We ain't tryin' to hear it
Cause to quench our sin's thirst
Is to quench the Spirit
Run, this is your race, boy run, don't stop
Run till your blood vessels bust like a Glock
Run so hard cause you want your reward
Boy run, boy run, now run some more
Run like a os' right there on the track
Run like Nascar now look back
Run so hard cause you want your reward
Boy run, now run, boy run some more
We still in it, dawg
We can't quit it y'all
All my cousins who runnin'
Wanna stick with it, ya'll
Jezebel is jumpin', your path, you best run
They tempting you to puff, puff, pass
You best run
Keep ya kicks laced, get your grip
Straight, before you quit, you kick
This is the big race
Forget a medal man it's bigger than that
Forget a 42 40 man you're quicker than that
(Woah)
The Holy Spirit got the breath you breathe
So if the cramps kick in
It's the all the breath you need
Wait on the Lord to renew you man
Don't stop, keep going, you can do this man
Keep the Word in your grip, keep
The Word on your lips
Keep a tight-knit Christlike
Crew for fellowship
And before you see the end
And the race is done
You will find some people who are
Seekin' and teach em to run
Run, this is your race, boy run, don't stop
Run till your blood vessels bust like a Glock
Run so hard cause you want your reward
Boy run, boy run, now run some more
Run like a os' right there on the track
Run like Nascar now look back
Run so hard cause you want your reward
Boy run, now run, boy run some more
