"Run" lyrics
"Run"
When I was a young boy living in the city
All I did was run run run run run
Staring at the lights they look so pretty
Momma said "son son son son son
You're gonna grow up, you're gonna get old
All that glitters don't turn to gold
But until then just have your fun
Boy, run run run run run"
Yeah, run run run
Run run run
When I was a young kid living in the city
All I did was pay pay pay pay pay
And every single dime that good Lord gave me
I could make it last 3, 4, 5 days
Living it up but living down low
Chasing that luck before I get old
And looking back, oh, we had some fun
Boy run run run run run
They tell you that the sky might fall
They'll say that you might lose it all
So I run until I hit that wall
Yeah I learned my lesson, count my blessings
Look to the rising sun and run run run
Yeah, one day well the sky might fall
Yeah, one day I could lose it all
So I run until I hit that wall
If I learned one lesson, count your blessings
Look to the rising sun and run run run
Run run run
Didn't get everything that I wanted
But I got what I need, yeah yeah
I see that light in the morning
Shining down on me
So take me up high, take me down low
Where it all ends nobody knows
But until then let's have some fun, yeah
Run run run run run
They tell you that the sky might fall
They'll say that you might lose it all
So I run until I hit that wall
Yeah, I learned my lesson, count my blessings
Look to the rising sun and run run run
Yeah, one day well the sky might fall
Yeah, one day I could lose it all
So I run until I hit that wall
If I learned one lesson, count your blessings
Look to the rising sun and run run run
Run run run
Yeah
Run run run
Yeah, I learned my lesson, count my blessings
Look to the rising sun
Yeah, I learned my lesson, count my blessings
Look to the rising sun
Yeah, if I learned one lesson, count your blessings
Look to the rising sun, yeah, run run run

"Run" is the fifth single from OneRepublic's fifth studio album, "Human". The song was premiered on the 5th of May, 2021, accompanied by a
music video.
Ryan Tedder explained, "This song is about all the negative press. Everything that is on the news sucks ass 99 percent of the time: 'The world is gonna end, the economy is gonna crash, the sky is falling, everything is so bad...' and my reaction to that is—horse-blinders. Run. Go straight through it, cut through all the noise and B.S. Go do what you want, where you want, when you, how you want."

Phillip Phillips - "Unpack Your Heart" Meet me where the sunlight ends
Meet me where the truth never bends
Bring all that you're scared to defend
And lay it down when you walk through my door
Throw all of it out on the floor
Your sorrow,...
James TW - "You & Me" I didn't mean to hurt you
So why'd I let you walk out the door
You said that you don't know me
You don't know who I am anymore
But if you knew the truth then
Then you wouldn't feel insecure
'Cause if...
James Arthur - "You" Fighting, living, dying
For what?
For freedom?
That for which men have fought since time began, to be free
They've been making blanket statements, scaring everyone
They've been making you feel like...
Kodaline - "Wherever You Are" You say you love me
You say you care
And when you're with me
My future's there
We get carried away in emotions
We get lost in each other's eyes
And we forget what we regret
As we cast our fears...
Mike Perry & Ten Times - "Down The Line" Yeah, yeah
Waiting here forever
Trapped inside a life
Wishing we could run away
And leave it all behind
And swim across the waters
And leave this shoreline
Never lookin' back
We're gonna make it out...
