Since she was young she said she dreamed of fame
And she said she want her name in lights
She said she goin Hollywood but never said tonight
Now it's been some time
She done waited years before she even tried
But she telling everyone that it's gonna be fine
God can only know what's going on in her mind
And she know it's true
She got this little issue with following through
And she can't live up to her own truth
And everyday her attitude pulling more from her dreams as a youth
Back when she was wishing on a star
Praying she would make it but she didn't get far
See you could pray for whatever you want
But the resolution ain't gonna come from just god
Now she walking in the club lookin so fine
Hair tied tight and her body feelin right
She's sipping on free drinks from some guy
And blacking out tonight but when she rise
She stay in the same place
These things are strange
Don't go away, these things they chase
And now she say
She wanna stay
But yet she running away
Yeah she running away, away
And she say it's all okay
But yet she running away
Yeah she running away, away
And she chase away every opportunity
Between you and me she could be the new thing
But she don't wanna move, she don't got the drive
So it passes by, it passes as time flies
And it never slows
Blink of an eye and girl there it goes
She can't see it cause her eyes still closed
And she knows it still be she can't take it so
She gon go ahead and miss her quota
Gastropoda she moving way to slow
And behind she leave a trail of lies and broken dreams and all of her old hopes
She so in denial
You can even tell it by the way that she smile
She's dancing now
What's she gonna do when it all comes crashing down
But for now she in the club, bottle full of bub, glass up and shot down
And she ain't gotta pay for drinks some dude got it
But in the morning she still back where she started
Staying in the same place
These things are strange
Don't go away, these things they chase
And now she say she wanna stay
But yet she running away
Yeah she running away, away
And she say it's all okay
But yet she running away
Yeah she running away, away
Damn girl show em what it do
Ain't nobody tryna predict your next move
Damn girl show em what it do
You get down but what you tryna prove
Damn girl show em what it do
You tryna play but who played the fool
She say she don't play
She say she don't play
Now she say she wanna stay
But yet she running away
Yeah she running away, away
And she say it's all okay
But yet she running away
Yeah she running away, away
