On the run

I aint doing nothing nomore,

For anyone who does not know the score,

Except write and fight for life,

Deserved by all, I call,

And no one answers,

I'm aching, I'm breaking,

I'm calling, no one hears,

Light of the world cries,

While the police try,

Greats always try,

To get people high,

 

I aint afraid of any magic,

God always, pulls me through,

Ireland, I aint afraid of you,

Follow me, You wont have a clue,

How, After I leave, 

To survive, only grieve,

Another lost son,

Put to the test, on the run

 

(I know its shit, I may make an effort to improve it in the future.)
