How could you run
When you got nowhere to hide
You keep chasin’ down trouble
But the problem is pride
These roads you’re travelin’
Got you torn up inside
You’re livin’ like an outlaw
Like you’re runnin’ from the crime
PRE-CHORUS
Oh, where are you runnin’ to?
Oh, what are you goin’ through?
It’s so heavy you can’t say it
You’re tryin’ to outrun the truth
CHORUS
Why am I runnin’
When I got nothin’ to lose?
I keep runnin’ from shadows
When the problem is me, not you
This road gets lonely
When you start livin’ what’s true
And this life cuts deeper
When I keep runnin’ from You
Gazin’ down this broken path
Realizin’ everyone’s gone
Wishin’ I had listened sooner
Can’t believe it took this long
My footsteps echo
In the dark of what I’ve done
And every mile behind me
Shows the man I’ve been runnin’ from
PRE-CHORUS
Oh, where was I runnin’ to?
Oh, Lord, You always knew
I was holdin’ onto secrets
That were never meant for you
CHORUS
Why am I runnin’
When I got nothin’ to lose?
I keep runnin’ from shadows
When the problem is me, not you
This road gets lonely
When you start livin’ what’s true
And this life cuts deeper
When I keep runnin’ from You
⸻
BRIDGE
I’m tired of the fightin’
I’m tired of the pain
I’ve been drownin’ in the darkness
Walkin’ circles in the rain
If You’re callin’ out my name
Then I can’t keep pushin’ through
‘Cause every step I’m takin’
Leads me closer back to You
⸻
FINAL CHORUS (Bigger / Lift
I’m done runnin’
Lord, I’m finally facing the truth
All the miles I wasted
Lead me straight back into You
This heart was breakin’
But You made daylight break through
Now the road ahead is open—
And I’m runnin’ toward You
