This running never stopped
The enemy chased us down young
The barrio never bore an innocent child
And we were constant prey on the run.

This running never stopped
The adolescence of many was run by fear
The deaths of friends grew great in number
And the sex and drugs were my comforting cheer.

This running never stopped
The times in and out of jail for racketeering
The lessons learned are forever with me
And never will I forget the life I spent always running.
