Текст песни 18Run - Ryan Oakes

Run off

There never is an easy way out when you're 16
You spiral down until you're finally up shits creek
Waking up every morning to a Blitzkrieg
Of all these people trying to break all of your esteem

God forbid you're just a little different
And it sparks their interest you'll become the biggest new joke
And they're gonna be so persistent hating so consistent
'Til your hopes diminished alone and you're bruised up bad

Now you're everybody's punchline (you wonder where to sit)
When you're standing in the lunchline (desperate to get)
Just a little bit of sunshine (I thought to end it all)
About a hundred more than one time (didn't fit the mold)
So I end up cast out (but when I started to choke)
I didn't ever tap out (they all hated themselves)
So they had to act out, wasn't an eye for an eye
So I never lashed out I knew I would laugh now

When you turn 18, run
At a speed that they won't catch
I think it's obvious that
I can't promise you you're gonna leave without one scratch
'Cause the adventure's just begun
And the world is in your grasp
A hundred miles an hour is your super power
And I promise you won't crash
When you turn 18, run

Welcome to my world and to my mind let's take a flashback
Writing all my raps distracted in the back of math class
Notebooks full of lyrics had them spilling out my backpack
Steve-O's didn't get it so they acted like a jackass

I just kept on working with no capping like a snap-back
Tried to turn the cards that I was dealt into a blackjack
Never would retaliate on days where I was laughed at
Sometimes you just gotta take a hike like you're a halfback

Anxiety was eating at me like a fuckin' parasite
Felt like my heart was stopping I would sit in classes paralyzed
Panic every hour I would sit in silence terrified
Mapping how the fuck I'm finna make it out this paradigm

Said that when I'm finished I'll be leaving without looking back
Booked it to the west coast and I left it all inside the past
Didn't do it by the book, and now I'm booked up look at that
I'm winning, and I know that they're all shook at that

When you turn 18, run
At a speed that they won't catch
I think it's obvious that
I can't promise you you're gonna leave without one scratch
'Cause the adventure's just begun
And the world is in your grasp
A hundred miles an hour is your super power
And I promise you won't crash
When you turn 18, run

Went from nights all alone and panic attacks
To having me a hand I can hold and managing that
Reflecting on the nights I was cold from the damages that
Hurt me and the ones who went ghost in a vanishing act

Because I went from nights all alone and panic attacks
To having me a hand I can hold and managing that
Reflecting on the nights I was cold from the damages that
Hurt me and the ones who went ghost in a vanishing act

When you turn 18, run
At a speed that they won't catch
I think it's obvious that
I can't promise you you're gonna leave without one scratch
'Cause the adventures just begun
And the world is in your grasp
A hundred miles an hour is your super power
And I promise you won't crash

When you turn 18, run
At a speed that they won't catch
I think it's obvious that
I can't promise you you're gonna leave without one scratch
'Cause the adventure's just begun
And the world is in your grasp
A hundred miles an hour is your super power
And I promise you won't crash
When you turn 18, run
