Run for time
Run for a dime
Run to be seen
Run for esteem
Run for a name
Run from shame
Run to be glad
Run when mad
Run when its spring
Run from a sting
Run to take care
Run from despair
Run from pretense
Run for sense
Run to attain
Run to refrain
Run from a fall
Run to stay tall
Run to unchain
Run for a gain
Run to all draws
Run from flaws
Run to appease
Run for peace
Run for a life
Run to strive
Run to atone
Run to be alone
So run we must
But at our behest
Or just breathe
Ease up and rest.
