about
The song title describes perfectly what the song is about. A straightforward, catchy, metaphoric, analogy of how it feels to be in PERiiSU's mind.
lyrics
Running through the slums
I don’t know
Where to go
I am lost for real (2x)
Give me a sign
I see no light
It’s dark outside
Please hold me tight
Just wanna be free
But I can’t cos they’re chasing after me
Running through the slums (4x)
Lost my sense of direction
Man I’m falling of the path
I just want some protection
To put me right on track
It feels like a lifetime
I’m going out my mind
Somebody please save me
Man I’m running out of time
As the darkness creeps in
I see fear ravaging my face from within
Don’t know what it is
But I feel it in my soul
Following my steps, everywhere I go
I hate it makes me feel soo cold
I’m only young but I feel soo old
I try to love, but to hate is my goal
I just want to have a sound mind, body & soul
But that’s what I get for staying in the slums
That’s what I get for being straight dumb
Not listening to a word what no one says
Liking the sound of me beating my own drums
Times nearly up
I need to get out of this rut
Hear me cry and listen to what I’m saying...
Running through the slums
I don’t know
Where to go
I am lost for real (2x)
Give me a sign
I see no light
It’s dark outside
Please hold me tight
Just wanna be free
But I can’t cos they’re chasing after me
