Lyrical Analysis of...
Run, Run
- Okay, sweetie.
- Time for nighty night.
- C'mon, go to bed, I'm tryna do this right.
- It's almost midnight, I guess I could tell you a story,
- about dada and his life.
- but first, a lullaby,
- Run, run, through the forest, run,
- can't get away from them, my scary thoughts
- Dada's life was real real bad, worse than you have ever had,
- Worse than you could ever seen, worse than there has ever been
- I wish that I could give you, the life that dada never had,
- Not as bad, the life that drove your dada mad.
- When I was born, I was subject to scourn,
- Grandmama was just eighteen, grandmama was a bad teen,
- she did things that were obscene, crack and blow and syringe and lean,
- orange, coke and green and bean, a pill inducing drug machine.
- Dada, well, I was forgotten, I was treated like a nothing,
- roadkill; maybe was a possom, put pass on my whole life,
- neglect does that baby girl, it makes you feel like you're your world,
- And everyone is just curved, maybe I got what I deserved.
- Had to make, my own food, before I had teeth to chew,
- Had a bad, attitude, before I could even spew,
- Baby girl, I was screwed, before I was old as you,
- Because my parents raised me doomed.
- Run, run, through the forest, run,
- can't get away from them, my scary thoughts,
- Run, run, through the forest, run,
- not escaping me, my scary thoughts.
- Okay, baby, when your eighty, maybe then is when you'll thank me,
- because of the way I made you and cos of the way you made me.
- I will never be like grandma, nor will I be like grandpa,
- not that that is a high bar, but they're not near my damn radar,
- Daddy raced away like Nascar, the same day that he could go far,
- and then your daddy, he had you, and you gave him will, to continue.
- and now I promise you, I will never be like them, never.
- Run, run, through the forest, run,
- I promise you, I am not my mum
- Run, run, through the forest, run,
- I will never be, as bad as them.
