My new running song dedicated to my amazing runner brother Mathew.
Because it is a running song, I intentionally made time signature 5/4 so that if you run in time with it, you will be alternating which foot hits the downbeat, and if you breathe using traditionally running breath rhythms, the song will help you switch between starting your in-breath/out-breath on your left and your right foot. I also made the BPM suitable for a good easy running cadence.
Lyrics:
Run straight
End hate
Run gay
Every day
Run tall
Kick back
Run Laps
Hand claps
Run because you can
Run because you’re strong
Running is a dance
Running is a song…
Run pain
Run fun
Pain’s fun
When you run
No wheels
Glow feels
Even keels
Vegan meals
Run because you can
Run because you’re strong
Running is a dance
Running is a song…
Run to be more alive
Run to see the sun…
Run to be more alive
Run for the sun
