Lyrics

Where you tryin' to run to?
 Don't you even know
 That you're still gonna be you
 Every place you go
 You can change your name and address
 That's what a lot of people say
 But the cards that they deal you
 Are the ones you gotta play
 No, you can't get away
 No, you can't get away
 No, you can't get away
 From you
 You can change from bald to cornrows
 Or the other way around
 You can live up on a mountain
 Or in a cave deep underground
 You can make so many changes
 That you fool the FBI
 But you recognise a suspect
 As someone you can't leave behind
 No, you can't get away
 (No, you can't get away)
 No, you can't get away
 (No, you can't get away)
 No, you can't get away
 (No, you can't get away)
 From you
 ♪
 Why you got that mask on?
 And who you tryin' to fool?
 The only one who matters
 Is stuck inside with you
 As soon as you stop runnin'
 And see that everyone's afraid
 But the thing that really scares me
 Is that I almost didn't say
 No, you can't run away
 (No, you can't run away)
 No, you can't run away
 (No, you can't run away)
 No, you can't run away
 (No, you can't run away)
 From you
 
 No, you can't run away
 (No, you can't run away)
 No matter how you try
 (No matter how you try)
 Remember what the brother say
 (Remember what the brother say)
 You can run, you can run, but you just can't hide
 No, you can't run away
 (No, you can't run away)
 No, can't run away
 (No, you can't run away)
 No, can't run away
 (No, you can't run away)
 From you
