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]

And picture us running away together and
When we come back everything is gonna be OK
(whisper) Open your eyes...

vocal This song is real. It's not some love struck bullshit lol. No one knows what it's really like living in a broken home and this song lets them get a glimpse. Ludacris did a perfect job on this song!!!

I'm a last year student at a college and I'm taking the Child n Youth Care Worker Program.This song just stole my heart when I heard it. Thank God its not one of those love songs that everyone does.

vocal this song is so powerful. I think that every girl should listen to this song. It's so sad but so true. This is one of my favourite songs.
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.

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.
