He's working 9 til 5 in a dark and dirty place
He gets up too early, doesn't see his children
His wife's been working so hard just to pay their way
'Cause little [?] no shoes, got no soles on the bottom
He gets down no his knees, closes his eyes and starts to pray
The tears come tumbling down just like the rhythm of the rain

He's thinking, I keep running
Got his hands up and he know it's not enough today
Singing, keep running
Got his hands up cause he knows it's not enough
Knows it's not enough

She's 5 foot 9 and oh she's never had to work a day
When she tiptoes in at 5am they don't notice
'Cause her daddy sleeps with his Rolex on
Her mom's been shopping all day long
While she lies awake on her bed on roses full of thorns
She get's down on her knees, opens her eyes to another day
The tears come tumbling down just like an endless tidal wave

She's thinking I keep running
Got her hands up and he know it's not enough today
Singing, keep running
Got her hands up cause he knows it's not enough
Knows it's not enough

Keep running, keep running, keep running, keep running
Keep running, keep running, I keep running, keep running
Keep running, keep running, keep running
Keep running, keep running, keep running
Keep running, keep running, keep running
Keep running, keep running, keep running
Keep running, keep running, keep running
Keep running, keep running, keep running
Keep running, keep running, keep running
Keep running, keep running, keep running
