about
Runaway is a song that is inspired by the cool summer breeze and the possibility of a world where your wildest dreams can be achieved. This song is one that has a double meaning. On the first listen, Runaway depicts a story of love at first sight, the traditional person meets a person in a unique location, the stars aline and the next move is to make the connection deeper by creating their own space. This song is perfect for you and your significant other to ride out into the sunset with. While on the second listen, Runaway is an ode to music from its creators. Both artists attempt to ask music to give them a chance at an escape from their everyday lifestyles.
Recognizing that music is much more than a concept and feeling but it is an entity of its own, KAR33M and T. Chandy have created a song depicting their feelings towards music, as they attempt to make their stride from emerging artists to global superstars.
“Before I began creating music professionally, I had been a fan of music for my whole life. A day doesn’t go by that I don’t listen to music, be it classical, hip-hop, R&B, or Afrobeats, I always listen to music and this established a deeper connection between my life and music. I love music and that is exactly, the emotion I hoped to capture in this song. This song is my declaration as a professional artist that I will try my absolute hardest to create the best music possible and I hope my listeners can connect with the message within this song.” - KAR33M
lyrics
I don't really wanna waste time baby
Love the rhythm of your waistline baby
Tell me where you wanna go, any day you want
Baby, we can runaway
Runaway, Runaway, Everyday
And there's nothing they could say, Runaway
Tell me where you wanna go, maybe I could take you there Baby, we can runaway
[Verse 1]
Told her lemme catch my breath She been runnin thru my mind
I been watchin every step Lookin right into my eyes
Got me banging on my Chest Told her read between the lines Throw it back I intercept
That's Good As it get
You know that Im here to know bout the rest
Lay back with me I can take care ya stress
We doin us so Who cares bout the rest
Tonight's all we got, don't wan leave with regrets
Head to the sky cuz the stars are my guide I ain't no Jetson but I'm feelin fly
All of the odds baby we gon defy
I'm Down for whatever if you by my side
[Chorus]
I don't really wanna waste time baby
Love the rhythm of your waistline baby
Tell me where you wanna go, any day you want
Baby, we can runaway
Runaway, Runaway, Everyday
And there's nothing they could say, Runaway
Tell me where you wanna go, maybe I could take you there Baby, we can runaway
[Verse 2]
Baby Hold up
YouknowhowIdoitwhenIRollup
The pack hella loud, dontchu burn up
Things heating up, ain't no a furnace
What them other lames say really don't concern us
So quick on ya feet
Move to the beat
Night is still young, baby and so are we DJ be spinnin our song on repeat
Get lost in the moment till we outta reach
So let's runaway from the bullshit around us The vibe in this club kinda getting too crowded Heart on my sleeve and her lips on my collar
We Hop in my whip, ask her girl are you bout it? I guess we gon find out
[Chorus]
I don't really wanna waste time baby
Love the rhythm of your waistline baby
Tell me where you wanna go, any day you want
Baby, we can runaway
Runaway, Runaway, Everyday
And there's nothing they could say, Runaway
Tell me where you wanna go, maybe I could take you there Baby, we can runaway
[Verse 3 ]
You got the keys to my heart, the keys to the Porshe
We can go right where you want
Baby na you I go marry, na you I go carry and I will put nothing above
Tell me the things that you like, the things that you want
Said I will give you all that you need
Baby I told you before and I'll tell you twice
Said, we can runaway
Runaway, Runaway, Anyday
And there's nothing they could say, Runaway
Maybe I could take you there
Baby we can runaway
