"Don't Run Away" lyrics
(feat. IM5)
(from "Let It Shine" soundtrack)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Her beauty's crazy
I watch her from the crowd
Her voice is so amazin'
She make her momma proud
I tried to send her flowers (Yeah)
But she has no address (Yeah)
Her home is in my heart (Yeah)
It's like she never left
This is more than a crush
More than a like, like, more than a love
Baby, I'ma make you mine
And I ain't givin' up
This is more than a crush
More than a like, like, more than a love
Baby, I'ma make you mine
And I ain't givin' up
Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth
'Cause I'm not givin' up on you
Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth
'Cause I'm not givin' up on you
Shawty, you got fire, but I'm preachin' to the choir
I know you know the whole world is watchin' you, so
Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth
'Cause I'm not givin' up on you
Uh
They say true love is blind (Yeah)
That real romance is timeless
You're like my favorite movie
Play it and rewind it (Uh, uh-uh)
'Cause, baby, you're the finest (Yeah)
Your love, I'm gonna find it (Yeah)
And when I do, I'll run away with you (Yeah)
Somewhere where they can't find us
This is more than a crush
More than a like, like, more than a love
Baby, I'ma make you mine
And I ain't givin' up
This is more than a crush
More than a like, like, more than a love
Baby, I'ma make you mine
And I ain't givin' up
Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth
'Cause I'm not givin' up on you
Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth
'Cause I'm not givin' up on you
Shawty, you got fire, but I'm preachin' to the choir
I know you know the whole world is watchin' you, so
Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth
'Cause I'm not givin' up on you
Normally I couldn't turn your head (Eh)
That's why I had to write this instead (Yeah)
Let's be friends, start out slow
Get to know you beyond your glow
You're more than meets the eye
Girl, you pterodactyl fly
Way back when you knew my name
(Now the truth is what I claim)
Don't run away (Don't run away)
Don't run away from the truth
'Cause I'm not givin' up on you
Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth
'Cause I'm not givin' up on you (I ain't givin' up on you)
Shawty, you got fire, but I'm preachin' to the choir
I know you know the whole world is watchin' you, so
Don't run away (Don't run away)
Don't run away from the truth (From the truth)
'Cause I'm not givin' up on you
Her beauty's crazy
I watch her from the crowd
Her voice is so amazin'
She make her momma proud
I tried to send her flowers (Yeah)
But she has no address (Yeah)
Her home is in my heart (Yeah)
It's like she never left
This is more than a crush
More than a like, like, more than a love
Baby, I'ma make you mine
And I ain't givin' up
This is more than a crush
More than a like, like, more than a love
Baby, I'ma make you mine
And I ain't givin' up
Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth
'Cause I'm not givin' up on you
Don't run away
Don't run away from the truth
