Yeah and it goes a little something like this

Runaway love 
Runaway love 
Runaway love 
Runaway love 
Runaway love 
Runaway love 
Runaway love 
Runaway love 

[Verse 1 - Ludacris] 
Now little lisa is only 9 years old 
Shes tryin to figure out why the world is so cold 
Why shes all alone and they never met her family 
Mamas always gone and she never met her daddy 
Part of her is missin and nobody will listenin 
Mama's on drugs gettin high up in the kitchen 
Bringin home men at different hours of the night 
Startin with some laughs--usually endin in a fight 
Sneak into her room while her mamas knocked out 
Tryin to have his way and little lisa says 'ouch' 
She tries to resist but then all he does is beat her 
Tries to tell her mom but her mama don't believe her 
Lisa is stuck up in the world on her own 
Forced to think that hell is a place called home 
Nothin else to do but get some clothes and pack 
She says shes bout to run away and never come back. 

[Hook - Mary J. Blige] 
Runaway love [x8] 

[Verse 2 - Ludacris] 
Little nicole is only 10 years old 
Shes steady tryin to figure why the world is so cold 
Why shes not pretty and nobody seems to like her 
Alcoholic step dad always wanna strike her 
Yells and abuses, leaves her with some bruises 
Teachers ask questions she makin up excuses 
Bleedin on the inside, cryin on the out 
Its only one girl really knows what she about 
Her name is little stacy and they become friends 
Promise that they always be tight til the end 
Until one day little stacy gets shot 
A drive by bullet went straight up on her block 
Now nicole stuck up in the world on her own 
Forced to think that hell is a place called home 
Nothin else to do but some get her clothes and pack 
She says shes bout to run away and never come back. 

[Hook - Mary J. Blige] 
Runaway love [x8] 

[Verse 3 - Ludacris] 
Little erica is 11 years old 
Shes steady tryin to figure why the world is so cold 
So she pops...to get rid of all the pain 
Cause shes havin sex with a boy whos sixteen 
Emotions run deep and she thinks shes in love 
So theres no protection hes usin no glove 
Never thinkin bout the consequences of her actions 
Livin for today and not tomorrows satisfaction 
The days go by and her belly gets big 
The father bails out he aint ready for a kid 
Knowin her mama will blow it all outta proportion 
Plus she lives poor so no money for abortion 
Erica is stuck up in the world on her own 
Forced to think that hell is a place called home 
Nothin else to do but get her clothes and pack 
She say shes about to run away and never come back. 

[Hook - Mary J. Blige] 
Runaway Love(runaway)
Runaway Love(runaway love babe)
Runaway Love(don't keep runin girl)
Runaway Love(aaaaahaah)
Runaway Love(runaway, runaway)
Runaway Love(runaway, runaway)
Runaway Love(runnin, runin, runin,runin)
Runaway Love(aaaaaaahhh runin)
Running(x3) 
Runaway Love, Runaway love
Runaway Love, Runaway Love
Runaway Love, Runaway Love
Runaway Love, Runaway Love

Don't you keep on runnin away
Don't you keep on runnin away
i know how you feel 
ive been there 
i was runnin away too
I will run away with you
I will run away with you
Runnin runnin runnin away love

run away run away love
dont keep runin away 
i'll run away with you
if you want me too
La Ahhh.. 

[Ludacris]
Yeah, I can only imagine what you're going through, ladies
Sometimes I feel like running away myself
So do me a favor right now and close your eyes
And picture us running away together and
When we come back everything is gonna be OK

(whisper) Open your eyes...

1 posts	Yes, it's a good song, but why is Ludacris being put up on a pedestal? So he's rapping about what's going on in real life, but he's not actually doing anything about it. I know that stuff is going on as well, but if you aren't doing anything to help the situation then I don't see the big deal.

23 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This song is so sad. It did give me goosebumps when I was listening to it and I almost cried. The only thing sadder is that this is real life. People need to wake up and realize what's going on out there. You wish there could be a happy ending, but sometimes...there isn't.
