Running Away Jill Scott

I put my heart on the back burner
Didn't wanna face my own misery
Smiled as hard as I could
That felt much better to me

But sometimes I couldn't sleep at night
And food and shoes couldn't curb my appetite
I couldn't think and I couldn't pray
That's what really done it to me
I was running

Running away, I was running
Running away, I was running
Running away, I was running
Running away, I was running

I, I, I tried to hide inside a beautiful place
I held on to my joy, but it felt so second place
More than anything, I felt afraid
Afraid to feel the pain that I myself had made
Didn't like what I had done
But I realized I was on the run

Running away, I was just running
Running away, I was just running
Running away, I was just running
Running away, I was just running
