[Verse 1]
Run like hell
Yeah, movin' fast
Don't fail me now
Know you gotta last
Move it on up
To the quick step, go
And I get more speed
When I get real low, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, runnin'
Can't kill a dead man
Let your secrets fly
Yeah, runnin'
Can't kill a dead man
Move it on up
As the fire fills the sky

[Chorus]
Can't kill a dead man
Can't kill a dead man
Can't kill a dead man

[Verse 2]
Gotta, gotta get
Just a little more
Got the wake-up call
Head hit the floor
See, there ain't nothin' more
That I can lose
So, I get real slow
When I got to choose, yeah
