better off running

years ago

i knew that i wasn't opened up

i heard 'em all

talk about how this world was tough

i met a man

who told me how he lived it up

he had a plan

to make the most and do what he loved

don't let it pass you by

live your life enjoy the ride

how long you been taught to take your time

but you know things'll always be the same. you'll be better off running

you'll be better off running

you'll be better off running

wasn't hard

to understand where he was comin' from

never disregard

all the time you have while you're young

he spoke about

the time he was broke and fallin' into love

but never doubt

that he would still joke and have his fun

don't let it pass you by

live your life enjoy the ride

how long you been taught to take your time

but you know things'll always be the same. you'll be better off running

you'll be better off running

you'll be better off running

don't let it pass you by

live your life enjoy the ride

how long you been taught to take your time

but you know things'll always be the same. you'll be better off running

you'll be better off running

you'll be better off running

you'll be better off running

you'll be better off running
