According to the Genius annotation, it "is a bittersweet reminiscence on a boyhood spent running the streets. Dixon’s memories of running as a kid takes on two very distinct and opposing meanings. Sometimes he spent days running toward fun and adventure and other days he was running away from the sound of gunfire and trouble."

Quotable Lyrics:
I make the devil mad dancin' with you
All the angels lookin' jealous 'cause ya halo is hoops
Hoverin' over your shoulders, wings usually is folded
I'm 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
