"No Exit" lyrics
"No Exit"
Where you tryin' to run to?
Don't you even know
That you're still gonna be you
Every place you go
You can change your name and address
That's what a lot of people say
But the cards that they deal you
Are the ones you gotta play
No you can't get away
No you can't get away
No you can't get away
From you
You can change from bald to cornrows
Or the other way around
You can live up on a mountain
Or in a cave deep underground
You can make so many changes
That you fool the FBI
But you recognize a suspect
As someone you can't leave behind
No you can't get away
(No you can't get away)
No you can't get away
(No you can't get away)
No you can't get away
(No you can't get away)
From you
Why you got that mask on?
And who you tryin' to fool?
The only one who matters
Is stuck inside with you
As soon as you stop runnin'
And see that everyone's afraid
But the thing that really scares me
Is that I almost didn't say
No you can't run away
(No you can't run away)
No you can't run away
(No you can't run away)
No you can't run away
(No you can't run away)
From you
No you can't run away
(No you can't run away)
No matter how you try
(No matter how you try)
Remember what the brother say
(Remember what the brother say)
You can run, you can run, but you just can't hide
No you can't run away
(No you can't run away)
No can't run away
(No you can't run away)
No can't run away
(No you can't run away)
From you
No!

Sly & The Family Stone - "If You Want Me To Stay" If you want me to stay,
I'll be around today,
to be available for you to see.
But I am about to go,
And then you'll know,
For me to stay here I got to be me.
You'll never be in doubt,
That's what...

Stop Running round in circles off of what we fuel
Living a lie eventually believing it's true
A lot of people here for us one could be you
