Where you headed 
When your on the run
Staring down the barrel 
Of a loaded gun
Blue lights in the rear view
Life’s looking dim
Push the pedal harder
Escape the unlawful grim
No money for food
Thieving at night
Jacking and selling 
Will all my might
Dealers and creatures
Of the night
Sidelying shadows 
Oh what a sight
Sun creeps up 
Moon goes down 
Running like crazy
A faceless clown
Nowhere is somewhere
Running around again
Escaping my dark fate
Can’t see the end 
Sun goes down 
Moon rises up
Blue lights in my rear view
Ain’t life tough
Where are you going
When your on the run
Looking down the barrel 
Of a loaded gun
Thoughts aren’t normal 
Drug fueled craze
Can’t see straight
Through all the haze
Finally caught and
Locked in a cell
Life’s looking bleak 
Scared as hell
