"Keep Running" lyrics
I have done what's required, never got what was promised
I made something out of nothing
And somehow I ended up with nothing out of something
I'm chasing what I feel but it keeps running
It comes and goes so fast, I can't even see it coming
I'm not lost, I just don't like where I've landed
I've worked for it, but it's not working
So I'm empty-handed
I've been chasing my purpose
In the faces that curse it
I work for the feeling while feeling like
Nothing is working
Chasing a dream through a field that keeps feeding me nothing
But sometimes the hunger hits different and I don't stop searching
When the doubt goes missing, I just keep running
I keep pressing ahead but I still falling backward
I planted the seed but I left it a bastard
If I'm not moving forward then I'm falling behind it
A forward in motion while I'm losing alignment
I've been building a way but the way never holds
Like I'm digging for change in a place that won't fold
Feel like I'm running in circles at times
Every door that I open just froze when I tried it
Still I'm set on the path undetermined regardless
Even stuck in the dark I keep sparking a spark
I will sit in this hole 'til a vine starts to grow
And I'll climb when the good Lord tells me to go
I've been chasing my purpose
In the faces that curse it
I work for the feeling while feeling like
Nothing is working
Chasing a dream through a field that keeps feeding me nothing
But sometimes the hunger hits different and I don't stop searching
When the doubt goes missing, I just keep running
I keep chasing the feeling, not the thing I was naming
'Cause the thing never lasts but the feeling's remaining
I was feeding the chase while the chase was consuming
And I'm stuck in the run like the eye in the ruin
Every time that I get it, it slips when I hold it
Like it's only alive when I don't even own it
I was chasing a purpose I thought I could finish
Now I'm seeing the purpose was just in the distance
The hunger's the reason I'm still even moving
If I feel to be still, I'll be stuck, I'll be losing
So I run with that light, let it lead where it takes me
The whole world I got, though sometimes it breaks me
I don't know if it's mine or mine to follow
But I chase it next week 'cause it fades by tomorrow
I've been chasing my purpose
In the faces that curse it
I work for the feeling while feeling like
Nothing is working
Chasing a dream through a field that keeps feeding me nothing
But sometimes the hunger hits different and I don't stop searching
When the doubt goes missing, I just keep running
I made something out of nothing
And somehow I ended up with nothing out of something
I'm chasing what I feel but it keeps running
It comes and goes so fast, I can't even see it coming
I'm not lost, I just don't like where I've landed
I've worked for it, but it's not working
So I'm empty-handed
I've been chasing my purpose
In the faces that curse it
I work for the feeling while feeling like
Nothing is working
Chasing a dream through a field that keeps feeding me nothing
But sometimes the hunger hits different and I don't stop searching
When the doubt goes missing, I just keep running
I keep pressing ahead but I still falling backward
I planted the seed but I left it a bastard
If I'm not moving forward then I'm falling behind it
A forward in motion while I'm losing alignment
I've been building a way but the way never holds
Like I'm digging for change in a place that won't fold
Feel like I'm running in circles at times
Every door that I open just froze when I tried it
Still I'm set on the path undetermined regardless
Even stuck in the dark I keep sparking a spark
I will sit in this hole 'til a vine starts to grow
And I'll climb when the good Lord tells me to go
I've been chasing my purpose
In the faces that curse it
I work for the feeling while feeling like
Nothing is working
Chasing a dream through a field that keeps feeding me nothing
But sometimes the hunger hits different and I don't stop searching
When the doubt goes missing, I just keep running
I keep chasing the feeling, not the thing I was naming
'Cause the thing never lasts but the feeling's remaining
I was feeding the chase while the chase was consuming
And I'm stuck in the run like the eye in the ruin

If I feel to be still, I'll be stuck, I'll be losing

Nothing is working
Chasing a dream through a field that keeps feeding me nothing
But sometimes the hunger hits different and I don't stop searching
When the doubt goes missing, I just keep running
