Lyrics
Friday nite walking down the street
Walking down the street on a Friday night
Poisoned body to drunk to see
Intoxicated, unable to see clearly due to poisoning
You gonna live your life tonight
Encouragement to live life to the fullest tonight
Bring a knife to a gun fight
Suggests entering a risky situation or confrontation unprepared
Fuckin crazy, wont last the nite
Acting recklessly and unpredictably, unlikely to survive the night
You better live your life or die
Emphasizing the importance of living boldly or facing death
But you're running away,
Describing the act of fleeing or escaping
You keep running away,
Continuing to escape or evade something
You keep running.
Reiterating the theme of continuous running away
Yeah you're runnin' away,
Confirming the pattern of escaping or avoiding
You keep running away
Continued reference to persistent escape behavior
Running, Can't run away from me.
Stating inability to escape or avoid something
Pick a night just sitting at the bar
Choosing to spend a night at a bar
Live to fast you wont get to far
Living life recklessly may lead to a premature end
You're gonna talk some shit tonight
Anticipating confrontational or aggressive behavior
When you see me
Response upon encountering the singer, triggering flight
You'll always turn and run
Consistently choosing to escape when faced with the singer
You better live your life or die
Reiterating the importance of living boldly or facing death
But you're running away
Continuing the description of escaping or fleeing
You keep running away
Perpetuating the act of evading or running away
You keep running
Repeating the idea of continuous escape
Yeah you're running away
Confirming the ongoing pattern of fleeing
You keep running away
Continuing the depiction of persistent escape behavior
Runnin'
Reiteration of the act of running away
Can't run away from me
Asserting the singer's inability to be avoided or escaped
You can't run away from me
Reinforcing the singer's presence as unavoidable
