  • Ah, ah, ah-ah
    (She's a runner, runner, runner, runner, runner)
    This the remix, yeah-yeah
    (Oh, oh, oh)

    Shawty gon' run when she in a bind (run)
    A track star, who ain't never seen the finish line
    Can't confide or commit, she scared to trust somebody
    On your mark, get set, go, she 'bout to dust somebody
    Do what it take, do what's gon' make it last
    She can't take the pain that come with that
    Hit the brakes 'fore it's too late, she fast
    Once she set her pace, she don't look back
    Now I know I looked over the signs
    Girl, do you ever get tired (you know) of runnin', runnin'?
    Oh, why?

    She's a runner, she's a track star
    She gon' run away when it gets hard
    She can't take the pain, she can't get scarred
    She hurt anyone that gets involved
    Don't wanna commit, why take it this far? (Oh, why?)
    She gon' do the race, just not this one (no) (oh, why?)
    Love is a game, you used to cheer for
    When I was down to talk, you weren't here for it (ooh, woah, oh)

    She's a liar, she a capper
    She'd do anything for the black card
    She give you your pain with a black heart (no)
    Should of never let that shit get that far (woah, woah)
    It's always been games with you (oh)
    Keepin' score and changin' moods (oh)
    I was all for it, but lately you (oh)
    Showed me that side, that crazy you (oh, crazy you)
    And you can get to packin' all of your bags
    You can leave the racks with all of them tags
    Gon' do your thing and don't look back
    Damn, girl, you fast (woah, woah)

    She's a runner, she's a track star (oh, she, she)
    She gon' run away when it gets hard (yeah)
    She can't take the pain, she can't get scarred (no, oh-oh, woah)
    She hurt anyone that gets involved (ah, yeah, babe)
    Don't wanna commit, why take it this far? (Oh, why?) (Oh, why?)
    She gon' do the race, just not this one (oh, why?) (Oh, why?)
    Love is a game, you used to cheer for (woah)
    When I was down to talk, you weren't here for it

    I said don't you run from me (don't you run)
    Don't take my love for granted 'cause you know it can get ugly
    She's a runner, she's a track star (oh-oh)
    Don't run away when it get hard, love
    I can tell that, you ain't ever had a gangster
    I'm aware of that, he ain't never tell you, "Thank ya"
    How you wear that, you should get a new Wraith, oh-oh (skrrt)
    I'm slidin' when you tell me it's convenient ('venient)
    You know I got the Glock up in 'Ghini
    Grant a couple wishes like a genie
    She gon' keep on runnin' back if she got access
    Got my dick hard like it's hard to be a black man
    I cut her off and put my feelings in the trash can (ooh-ooh-ooh)
    I guess all this love was just too much love for you

    She's a runner, she's a track star
    She gon' run away when it gets hard
    She can't take the pain, she can't get scarred
    She hurt anyone that gets involved
    Don't wanna commit, why take it this far (oh, why?)
    She gon' do the race, just not this one (oh, why?)
    Love is a game, you used to cheer for (na-na)
    When I was down to talk, you weren't here for it (na-na, na-na)
    You-ou-ou-ou

    Baby, stop frontin' (stop)
    Grab on your waist, that's gon' make you stop runnin' (stop runnin')
    Diamonds on my chain and watch bustin'
    You look at me like you want somethin'
    Don't keep it low, keep it one hunnid
    Speakin' of numbers, I
    Here, I gave you the wrong one on purpose, but this one is workin' fine
    Hit my line, call me whenever you want some me
    646-992-7453
    I'm from the jungle, but I'm not a cheater
    Bitch, I'm in my bag now, it's hoodie szn
    I'ma set it off if a nigga creep up
    And she gon' take the charge like it's a misdemeanor
    I was mad high, you was off a Xan', I know
    I was tryna fuck you and your friends like (oh)
    Even though that wasn't in the plans right (no)
    Drum with a stick, like a band, I know (woo)
    AP on my wrist, that's a bustdown, oh-woah
    King of this fly shit, yeah, I know
    You can hold me down and be more than my ho
    Stop actin' like you love me when you really don't know
    She's a runner, she's a track star Writer/s: Chris Brown, Darien Hinton, Durrell "Tank" Babbs, Jeremy Biddle, Julius Dubose, Levi de Jong, Travis Emmett Bruce

  • Juco from Dothan, Alabama Keep Grinding DH!!! Good Things Coming!
  • Bikodabarber’s Mama from Atl Son played this song at least 10x- first the beat then the lyrics hit hard. This is timeless piece with an old skool spin on it. I’m a Luther Teddy P, Isley EWF generation music lover- this one has me on repeat in the shower reminiscing
