Shoes For Running (feat. B.o.B & Wavves) Lyrics


Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Shoes for running
That will race ya
Sun is coming
Itll chase ya
Through this deadbeat town
Through this deadbeat townThe end is coming
I would race ya
But theres no running
Itll chase ya
Death will hunt you down

Death will hunt you downWhat about the people thats barefoot with no shoes for running when the sun come up?
Hey 1 procenters, the 99 say what you gonna do for us?
Well run up in your house like the first runner up
Be the first one to rock and the last one to get laid down
Stay down and now we lookin at the top of the pound
Oh the nigga, the mountain, no our cap on
We vote patrone, nigga did 2 songs
Bubble gum, jet poppin off
Let em out like the nigga got all the hoes
Got all the dope and all the women
Why what you gonna do in the penitentiary?
Got a lot of money, cant take it with me
I cant take it with me
I wouldve stayed, consent me
To the moon and back with beautiful casa
And saved the lives of my great grandmamma
My great granddad and Ill pass the answer
To the question, but they make money off the medicine
Leave it less on stock in elections
With no progression, just recessionsShoes for running
That will race ya
Sun is coming
Itll chase ya
Through this deadbeat town
Through this deadbeat townThe end is coming
I would race ya
But theres no running
Itll chase ya
Death will hunt you down
Death will hunt you downJust as I expected, life gets deadly
Its funny how the beloved become the beheaded
The truth can be independent of direction that you stretchin
So my niggas well drop when shit gets sketchy
Its a masterpiece, a work of art,
A gallery, no photoshop
Pictures say a million words
So why does it let my photo funk
Even in your local top
Niggas that you know he boss
Every time our name is brought up better know its mobile top
Thats why she gives me geek til her shins weak
Im blazing every day, you can call it dealt week
Youre running from a life that you didnt see
Thats like playing hide and seek with the grim reaperShoes for running
That will race ya
Sun is coming
Itll chase ya
Through this deadbeat town
Through this deadbeat townThe end is coming
I would race ya
But theres no running
Itll chase ya
Death will hunt you down
Death will hunt you downYou can run but you cant hide
Spent your whole life tryin to escape
And everybodys safe
Bits are tired living in that life
Different lights, same towns
Sacrifice but we try cuz we know theres no getting out
And when the pawns are playin themselves I just lay and wait and its greater myself
Let em war wet out til the rhythm sails out
Breathe it back to life, give it mouth to mouthShoes for running
That will race ya
Sun is coming
Itll chase ya
Through this deadbeat town
Through this deadbeat townThe end is coming
I would race ya
But theres no running
Itll chase ya
Death will hunt you down
Death will hunt you downYou can fight and try to get away
But theres nowhere to run and hide to
Youd better know that there might come a day
Eventually its gon find youYou can fight and try to get away
But theres nowhere to run and hide to
Youd better know that there might come a day
Eventually its gon find youEventually its gon find you find you
Eventually its gon find you
Yea, Eventually its gon find you
And its gon find your ass, its gon find you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Antwan André Patton (born February 1, 1975 in Savannah, Georgia), better known by his stage name Big Boi, is an American Grammy Award winning rapper, producer, actor and half of the critically and commercially successful hip hop duo OutKast. Big Boi met André 3000 while attending high school in the 1980s and the two eventually joined forces as OutKast and signed with LaFace Records. After six successful albums as a duo they both decided to work on solo projects, and Big Boi's debut solo album Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty was released July 6, 2010 and his second solo album, Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors, will be released on November 13, 2012. The Mama Told Me Songfacts reports that his sophomore set's title is a dedication of sorts to his recently deceased grandmother.

He can be identified by his rapid delivery and intricate rhymes, a style which has become more distinct since the album ATLiens.

In addition to his OutKast and Dungeon Family work, Big Boi has featured in other artists' songs. His most notable guest appearances were on the 1999 Missy Elliott hit, "All N My Grill," the Youngbloodz' "85 South," and Trick Daddy's 2001 single "In Da Wind."

After four increasingly successful albums as a duo since 1991, André 3000 decided to make a solo album as a side project. Big Boi also produced a solo effort, and the two albums were packaged together as Speakerboxxx/The Love Below in 2003. Big Boi's single from the album, The Way You Move featuring Sleepy Brown, was originally supported by urban radio then crossed over to pop charts. When "The Way You Move" supplanted Hey Ya! as the #1 song on the US pop charts, OutKast achieved the rare honor of a group replacing itself at the top of the charts. The second single from Big Boi's side of the album was Ghetto Musick, which featured André 3000 and a sample from Patti LaBelle's Love, need & want you.

Def Jam Records has announced "Sir Lucious Left Foot: the Son of Chico Dusty," a Big Boi solo effort will be released in the summer of 2010.

He released a mixtape/compilation album, "Got Purp? Vol 2," in conjunction with the Purple Ribbon All-Stars in November 2005 on Purple Ribbon Records. The first single from the album was "Kryptonite", which cracked the Billboard Hot 100 and was a hit on hip hop radio.

Big Boi is married to Sherlita Patton, with whom he has two children: a daughter, Jordan, and a son , Bamboo. His oldest son, Antwan Jr., is from a prior relationship. Numerous references to the Patton family are present in Big Boi's rhymes.

His younger brother James raps under the name Lil' Brotha, and is a member of hip hop group Konkrete.

Big Boi and André 3000 star in "Idlewild," a film about music in the Depression-era South. It was released in August 2006.

Big Boi also appeared in season 3 of Nick Cannon's "Wildin' Out," as well as guest starring and appearing as a musical guest on "Chappelle's Show." Besides "Idlewild" he has appeared in T.I.'s movie, "ATL," and starred in "Who's Your Caddy?"
