I'm On The Run
Chasing Freedom: Diamond Judd's Escape Anthem
Lyrics
I'm on the run
I am in a state of running or fleeing
On the run
Continuation of being on the run
The only thing close to me is my gun
The only thing close to me is my gun, suggesting a sense of danger or reliance on self-defense
No home I made the world my open road
I don't have a permanent home, and I consider the world my open road
Cold hands I wonder if I'll see you again
Feeling of coldness, uncertainty about seeing someone again
Ididn't see your ball and chain
Unaware of a controlling or restricting influence
You weigh me down and I know that I just can't stay
Feeling weighed down, recognizing the need to leave
Gotta hit the road I'm on my own
Must continue the journey alone
Now I'm on the run
Reiteration of being on the run
On the run
Continuation of the theme of running
The only thing close to me is my gun
Repetition of the proximity of the gun
On the run on the run on the run
Emphasizing the continuous nature of being on the run
Show you my teeth as I bite my tongue
Expressing defiance or strength by showing teeth while holding back words
Without a warning I'leave in the morning
Sudden departure without warning, leaving in the morning
Ride through the night just to steal the sun
Riding through the night to seize opportunities
Look to the stars cause I know where I'm going lost for now
Seeking direction by looking at the stars, feeling temporarily lost
So l'm on the run
Reaffirmation of being on the run
New life
Embarking on a new phase of life
Just like a snake I shed my skin
Symbolic transformation, leaving the old behind
No time
No time to hesitate
Thad to choose your heart or mine
Forced to make a choice between love and personal freedom
I didn't see your ball and chain
Repetition of not recognizing a controlling influence
You weigh me down and I know that I just can't
Feeling burdened, recognizing the need to leave (continuation from line 7)
Stay
The decision to leave is final
Gotta hit the road l'm on my own
Reiteration of the need to hit the road alone
Now I'm on the run
Continuation of being on the run
On the run
Repetition of the proximity of the gun
The only thing close to me is my gun
Emphasizing the continuous nature of being on the run
On the run on the run on the run
Repetition of the theme of continuous running
Show you my teeth as I bite my tongue
Expressing defiance or strength by showing teeth while holding back words (repetition from line 13)
Without a warning I'II leave in the morning
Sudden departure without warning, leaving in the morning (repetition from line 14)
Ride through the night just to steal the sun
Riding through the night to seize opportunities (repetition from line 15)
Look to the stars cause I know where I'm going lost for now
Seeking direction by looking at the stars, feeling temporarily lost (repetition from line 16)
So I'm on the run
Reaffirmation of being on the run (repetition from line 17)
