We are all running
But from what?
But to where?Whatever from
It will catch up to us
EventuallyWherever to
We might not make it
EventuallyBut that doesn't stop us from
Giving
Up
Because that's what we are
Persistent
That's what we do
We hopeThat's what makes us
Who we are
Human
And we prevail
Nothing scares usWe live knowing
Death will catch up to usWe run knowing
We will get tired and oldAnd we will wither
And we will fade
And we will break
And we will die
But we will not give upAnd we won't
Stop
Running
