"Run Baby Run" lyrics

Knock on my door
Badge and a gun
Can we come in?
Am I in trouble?
No you're not son
But you're the victim
Somebody stole your identity
He's been leading a chase
Up through the Highlands
Scared that he'll make it
Past state lines and
We'll lose him for good
You'll be a ghost
He'll become you
No one will know

The cops are talking I can't hear em
I'm jumping up and down at the TV screaming

Run baby run
Don't you let em light you up
Foot on the gas
You could be the best of us
Take my name take my age
Take the dreams I had saved
Be a man talk your shit
Don't live life so afraid
Run Baby Run
You might be the best of us
You could be the best of us

My time on earth
Mostly a wash
What I would give to be in that car
Feeling the weight of every second
Driving away from my reflection

The cops are shooting out the tires
He's driving on the rims
They're catching fire

Run baby run
Don't you let em light you up
Foot on the gas
You could be the best of us
Take my name take my age
Take the dreams I had saved
Be a man talk your shit
Don't live life so afraid
Run Baby Run
You might be the best of us
You could be the best of us

Now he's out on the case
They're sending the dogs
Scaling a fence and cutting through lawns
Drawing their guns, the choppers above
They're about to light em up
Oh don't you let em
Don't you let em you better

Run Baby Run
Running for the both of us
Shots ringing out
Watching as they light em up
There it goes every hope
To escape got so close
Now I'll drive 95 towards the hell I call home
Run Baby Run
You could be the best of us
Woulda been the best of us
