Runaway Love

Kvällens låt: Ludacris feat.Mary J Blige - Runaway Love

Now little lisa is only 9 years old

She´s tryin´ to figure out why the world is so cold

Why she´s all alone and they never met her family

Mama´s always gone and she never met her daddy

Part of her is missin´ and nobody will listen

Mama's on drugs gettin´ high up in the kitchen

Bringin´ home men at different hours of the night

Startin´ with some laughs--usually end up in a fight

Sneak into her room while her mamas knocked out

Tryin´ to have his way and little lisa says ouch

She tries to resist, but then all he does is beat her

Tries to tell her mom but her mama don't believe her

Lisa is stuck up in the world on her own

Forced to think that hell is a place called home

Nothin´ else to do but get some clothes and pack

She says she´s about to run away and never come back.

Runaway love

Little nicole is only 10 years old

She´s steady tryin´ to figure why the world is so cold

Why she´s not pretty and nobody seems to like her

Alcoholic step dad always wanna´ strike her

Yells and abuses, leaves her with some bruises

Teachers ask questions she makin´ up excuses

Bleedin´ on the inside, cryin´ on the out

Its only one girl really knows what she´s about

Her name is little Stacy and they become friends

Promise that they always be tight til´ the end

Until one day little Stacy gets shot

A driveby bullet went straight up on her block

Now Nicole´s stuck up in the world on her own

Forced to think that hell is a place called home

Nothin´ else to do but some get her clothes and pack

She says she´s about to run away and never come back.

Runaway love

Little Erica is eleven years old

She´s steady tryin´ to figure why the world is so cold

So she pops pills to get rid of all the pain

Cause she´s havin sex with a boy who´s sixteen

Emotions run deep and she thinks she´s in love

So theres no protection he´s usin´ no glove

Never thinkin bout´ the consequences of her actions

Livin´ for today and not tomorrows satisfaction

The days go by and her belly gets big

The father bails out, he ain´t ready for a kid

Knowin´ her mama will blow it all outta proportion

Plus she lives poor so no money for abortion

Erica is stuck up in the world on her own

Forced to think that hell is a place called home

Nothin´ else to do but get her clothes and pack

She say shes about to run away and never come back.

Runaway Love. Runaway Love

Yeah, I can only imagine what you're going through, ladies

Sometimes I feel like running away myself

So do me a favor right now and close your eyes

Picture us running away together and when we come back everything is gonna be OK

Open your eyes...
