We Run Things
Unconventional Paths: Embracing Difference
Lyrics
We run things another way,
We assert control in a different manner
We run things another way,
Reiteration of the assertion of a unique way of doing things
Getting love if you can love (yeah)
Receiving love is contingent on the ability to give love
Getting love if you can love (yeah)
Emphasizing the reciprocity of love
Nothing left for you to say,
No more words left for you to express
Trouble melts and residence stays,
Challenges fade away, but the essence remains
Don't stop 'cause it's getting tense now.
Encouragement to persist despite increasing tension
We run things another way,
Reiteration of asserting control in a distinct manner
We run things another way,
Reaffirmation of the unique approach to running things
I draw a face on a dartboard (yeah)
Creating a target for frustration or discontent
I wear it out like a record (yeah)
Using something until it's worn out, like a record
Tired eyes an' razor blades,
Signs of exhaustion and the presence of sharp criticism
Tearing through a radio wave,
Penetrating through a medium, possibly the impact of communication
Don't stop 'cause it's getting tense now
Emphasis on persisting despite intensifying circumstances
'Cause I'm trying to hold on to something, yeah,
Expressing a desire to cling to something meaningful
'Cause if you let me,
Conditional statement about revealing or demonstrating
I'll show ya
Assurance of demonstrating or showing something
I'll do it, can ya' hear it?
Confirmation of the ability to accomplish the demonstrated action
We run things another way,
Reassertion of the distinctive way of managing things
We run things another way,
Repetition emphasizing the alternative approach
We run things another way,
Continued emphasis on the unique method
We run things, another way (yeah)
Final declaration of the unconventional way of running things
We run things another way,
Reiteration of asserting control in a distinct manner
We run things another way,
Reaffirmation of the unique approach to running things
Get on top 'cause I'm falling (yeah)
Advocating taking a dominant position while experiencing a fall
I never stop with your calling (yeah)
Continuation of actions despite persistent calls or challenges
I shiver now I feel the raise,
Feeling a sudden increase in intensity, possibly passion or emotion
I batter time and wasted days,
Overcoming and utilizing time despite past inefficiencies
Don't stop if ya wanna tense now
Encouragement to persist if tension is desired
'Cause I'm trying to hold on to something, yeah,
Expressing a desire to cling to something meaningful
'Cause if you let me,
Conditional statement about revealing or demonstrating
I'll show ya
Assurance of demonstrating or showing something
I'll do it, can ya' hear it?
Confirmation of the ability to accomplish the demonstrated action
We run things another way,
Reassertion of the distinctive way of managing things
We run things,
Declaration of running things differently
I'm trying to hold on to something, yeah,
Expressing a desire to cling to something meaningful
'Cause if you let me,
Conditional statement about revealing or demonstrating
I'll show ya
Assurance of demonstrating or showing something
I'll do it, can ya' hear it?
Confirmation of the ability to accomplish the demonstrated action
We run things another way,
Reassertion of the distinctive way of managing things
We run things another way,
Repetition emphasizing the alternative approach
We run things another way,
Continued emphasis on the unique method
We run things, another way (yeah)
Final declaration of the unconventional way of running things
