[English]

I ran away from fighting

But it made me stronger

You can call me pussy

Pussy is power, oh

Every time I let loose

I get in situations

I'm sorry, Mr Officer

Don't take me to the station

Run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run

Whoa papa run

I'm just tryna be civil

Always caught up in the middle

Put my head inside the pillow

'Til I'm feeling like bam bam bam bam

Bam chicka wow, head up in the clouds

Nothing in this life is ever bringing me down

She said don't (don't) you (you) ever (ever, ever)

(Run from my love, but you still)

Run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run

Whoa papa run

Run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run

Whoa papa run

Me a go run, me a go run (yeah, yeah)

And everybody knows that I am number one

We got the fire, we make it burn

I got the men a chasing me, I make them run, run, run, run

'Cause I be the one that walks on stage

And makes them say (yeah, yeah)

And I be the one that's travelling the world, it's no vacay (yeah, yeah)

I'm so unique, don't you see? Ocean deep, flow so sweet

And it's edible, it's edible, I'm so incredible, incredible

...

Run, run, run, run, run (yeah yeah)

Run, run, run, run, run (yeah yeah)

Run, run, run, run, run (yeah yeah)

Run, run, run, run, run

Whoa papa run

Run, run, run, run, run (yeah yeah)

Run, run, run, run, run (yeah yeah)

Run, run, run, run, run (yeah yeah)

Run, run, run, run, run

Whoa papa run

Whoa papa run

Whoa papa run

Whoa papa run

Whoa papa run

Whoa papa run

Whoa papa run

Whoa papa run

Whoa papa run
