Blood Orange Runnin Lyrics
Runnin' by Blood Orange
(feat. Georgia Anne Muldrow)
[Verse: Devonté Hynes]
Demons on my neck, neck
Summer take a toll
Lamp in my eyes shined bright on my soul
Girls awful wet slip, fall, break the pain
And the same anxiety's coming up again
I've been losing out on something
So I'm told by my friends
[Chorus: Devonté Hynes & Georgia Anne Muldrow]
Runnin' in circles
Looking for something to hold on
[?]
Knowing there's nowhere to go
And it's harder to be on your own (So hard)
And it's hard when the night owns your soul
And it's harder to think on your own
You're runnin' on my mind
Yeah, you're runnin' on my mind
And the summer is taking it all
I know you're runnin' on my mind
Runnin' on my mind
It all
[?]
Yeah, you're runnin' on my mind
[Verse: Devonté Hynes]
Demons on my neck, neck
Summer take a toll
Lamp in my eyes shined bright on my soul
Girls awful wet slip, fall, break the pain
And the same anxiety's coming up again
[Interlude: Georgia Anne Muldrow]
You and your soul are never not one
I said, you and your soul are never not one
Whoa, rise and shine, rise and shine
'Cause you and your soul are never not one
Hold on, yes
You gonna be okay, you gonna be okay
Everybody goes through it
Everybody goes through it
You're gonna be alright
Just hold on to your mighty way of being
[Outro: Janet Mock, Devonté Hynes, & Amandla Stenberg]
Live for the floor
If I called you would you answer me?
So, you were, like, talking about this idea of being called upon
And for some reason the first thing I heard was, like
This faint, irritating, incessant buzzer
And I think I heard it three times in my life
The first was, was within myself
Um, to stop pretending
To stop performing in ways that people wanted me to
Life for the floor
To actually show up for myself
And to be myself
[Verse: Devonté Hynes]
Demons on my neck, neck
Summer take a toll
Lamp in my eyes shined bright on my soul
Girls awful wet slip, fall, break the pain
And the same anxiety's coming up again
I've been losing out on something
So I'm told by my friends
[Chorus: Devonté Hynes & Georgia Anne Muldrow]
Runnin' in circles
Looking for something to hold on
[?]
Knowing there's nowhere to go
And it's harder to be on your own (So hard)
And it's hard when the night owns your soul
And it's harder to think on your own
You're runnin' on my mind
Yeah, you're runnin' on my mind
And the summer is taking it all
I know you're runnin' on my mind
Runnin' on my mind
It all
[?]
Yeah, you're runnin' on my mind
[Verse: Devonté Hynes]
Demons on my neck, neck
Summer take a toll
Lamp in my eyes shined bright on my soul
Girls awful wet slip, fall, break the pain
And the same anxiety's coming up again
[Interlude: Georgia Anne Muldrow]
You and your soul are never not one
I said, you and your soul are never not one
Whoa, rise and shine, rise and shine
'Cause you and your soul are never not one

You gonna be okay, you gonna be okay
Everybody goes through it
Everybody goes through it
You're gonna be alright
Just hold on to your mighty way of being
