Lyrics.
running from the guns,
point and shoot,
we used to played up on the playground,
running from the guns,
who thought,
hardest part would be for me to stay down,
running from the gun,
breaks my heart,
if you decide to fly away now,
running from the guns,
i am,
running from the guns
i make the devil mad,
dancing with you,
all the angels lookin jealous,
cause ya halo is hoops,
hoverin over your shoulders,
wings usually is folded,
im not used to extending them,
to tell you the truth,
pull me off the wall, growing my roots,
sheesh,
what i’m running from,
following suit,
we needed more distance, so they wouldn’t pursue,
cuz up here, im making icarus envious too,
of my soles,
and wings,
and freedoms,
and the songs,
they’ll sing,
when i see em,
moving on my own,
put the dreaming aside,
everybody on the porch,
looked up to the sky,
friends getting mad,
but before they knew,
suddenly,
my niggas start lifting up too,
through the clouds,
brown shoulders, broke right on through,
with eyes watching god,
my heart stays on,
you,
running from the guns,
point and shoot,
we used to played up on the playground,
running from the guns,
who thought,
hardest part would be for me to stay down,
running from the gun,
breaks my heart,
if you decide to fly away now,
running from the guns,
i am,
running from the guns
i saw that boy,
then i saw his soles,
wondering what songs this canary holds,
glad he off the wall,
and his wings unfold,
whole block gone cheer when he makes it home,
holding heavy heart really makes it worse,
til we found the only way for us to lift that curse,
if we run to a place where they know our worth,
sun talked,
said its not my last day on earth,
hurry up,
its across the ridge!
my gramps wants to fly,
so i scratch that itch,
and if,
niggas crying,
wit they arms raised,
that should imply that I’m in this bitch,
nights on the car hood,
layed out,
crucified,
grew much more,
from the love you provide,
standing on staged,
hold back,
all teary eyed,
looking at my niggas,
like glad all of you survived
we can make that work,
know you was tripping in,
being locked to the earth,
worry later,
no time for us to focus on whats past tense,
and besides,
worries now,
getting over that fence,
so lock both your hands,
act like you been known,
setting off fireworks,
you know my kinfolks,
12 round the corner,
they judging our sins hoe,
once your feet hit that gravel,
nigga just run!
running from the guns,
point and shoot,
we used to played up on the playground,
running from the guns,
who thought,
hardest part would be for me to stay down,
running from the gun,
breaks my heart,
if you decide to fly away now,
running from the guns,
i am,
running from the guns

#McKinleyDixon #CitySlang - Hudba
The intention behind 'Run, Run, Run' was to make a song that is joyous in sound but sombering in lyric. This song chronicles a boy as he moves through several time periods of his life from learning how to run how to dance and finally how to fly.
‘Run, Run, Run’ is taken from McKinley Dixon’s album ‘Beloved! Paradise! Jazz!?’ out on City Slang. Listen now/order the album: mckinleydixon.lnk.to/BelovedParadiseJazzYD
You are such an incredible artist and you deserve so much recognition for what you have been able to accomplish. I really like these lyrics and the song itself is just so great! I really wanna know what software you use to produce, because this is amazing
Well if that was your intention you did a great job with it. Listening to this without paying attention to the lyrics is completely different than listening to it with the lyrics. Truly amazing record.
Probably the most underrated rapper these days
This man needs so much recognition, calling that he’s gonna be the next big thing
not yet but he will be, I can feel it coming
Easily one of the best records of 2023 already: Beloved! Paradise! Jazz!? It’s a masterpiece.
who else heard this in a chase bank ad?
one of the best songs of the year. the vibes are immaculate
Oh it's absolutely on my top 50 for the year.
Whoever produced this deserves a cookie
Heard this track on Huey Show on BBC! This sounds so good on my new speakers! Much love from Congo, Africa
In short? Iconic and essential.
Most underrated artist to ever live, I feel lucky to have found your music.
ahh yes, my underrated banger. love it
Shout out Anthony Fantano for putting me on to this!
just heard this on a chase commerical and was so happy
I listen to this constantly ever since I heard it a week ago.
Instant classic.
I got this music video as an ad and this shit goes hard
Congrats on getting this song on commercials!
the lyrics and flow are great as usual but god the beat and energy take this song to a whole new level. listened to this at least 20 times and that last verse at least 40. can't wait for the album to drop
Dude Beloved!Paradise!Jazz!? Is one of my new favs. This is revolutionary
Love love love !!!
We so lucky with these new releases 🙏 🎉
This is one of the most colourful and cheerful, yet heartbreaking and devastating HipHop Songs ever. The Juxtaposition of them playing on the playground with the fantastical 'subway-surfers'-esc beat to the reality of them having grown up and running from the guns is ingenious. One of the best hiphop songs of the year without a doubt - masterpiece.
I’m glad it seems we all agree that this is one of this year’s best songs. Those nostalgic, almost Sesame Street-esque brass samples made me get emotional
That was 3:11 well spent. Thank You
Heard the addy, instant banger
This is one of my favourite songs and it pains me that it's not popular enough
The constant references to the sky and rising above everything and everyone trying to hold you back? Makes Icarus envious.
Just getting locked into this with the headphones. Such a good vibe! Real exciting to see stuff like this being made! Killing it!
this song is up there with the best jazz hip hop tracks ever made
starting 2024 off right 🔥
crazyyyy
Best rap song in 2023
amazing music and this is visually stunning. good stuff my friend!
kikiki
this is dope! i appreciate you King!
YOOO THEY USED THE BEAT FOR A COMMERCIAL
*[criminally underrated]*
Maybe it's the piano, with a jazz/funk vibe and a syncopation that feels like the artist is playfully messin with you. There's something masterful when a musician makes you feel like you're participating in something you're only receiving. The playful word play and wisdom in storytelling, coupled with the imagery has me hooked. How'd I find this diamond in the rough?
Que temazo!!!🔥🔥🔥
I missed art like this: awesome beat, poetic lyrics, and a well directed music video
This was my song of the year :)
💕
Better than anything most chart-topping rappers are releasing right now 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love it
素晴らしい！日本でも多くの人に触れて欲しい。
whoever put this under their 90s and 2000s playlist, thanks lol
I just some time ago found this song and I'm glad I did, it's great!
One of the one ad’s that caught my eye, this was fucking awesome

Heard on WNRN this week. So much talent and style here. Wish you the best!
Fucking so good bro 🔥🔥
Anyone else here, cause they found this song off of an ad
Das a great ad, but I found it from a recommendation
@@roryfahy4568 ain't that right
Sounds like it’s made in 1986-1987
can i use your song and made a choreography? :)
Song of the year?
才发现是同款发型 hhhhhhhhh 好听就算了 还可爱！
boas novas meus amorews
Finally something with talent and no vo co ! Nice
Is this chorus an interpolation of something? It sounds so familiar
I think so top, and i am looking for it for the last 5 hrs
The piano part is a recut or reassemblage of "Can You Feel It?" by Ray Barretto.
Aoty
This song is weirdly cool. Very playful and fun vibe to the song and the beat is so good. The actual lyrics feel so weirdly disconnected from the beat, like you mentioned and that just makes this song feel so funny and cool to me. You definitely have good jazz taste since this beat is very nice! I can say that I've become a fan!
Fucking GOAT
∆King
👉💥💥👟👟
Kinda sounds like an MM...FOOD beat but more modern 🔥🔥
I’m hearing it for the first time.Rap gotten stale in 2023 excluding a few rappers.
