    This song hit me hard. It's like he's singing about my father. My dad can't outrun his karma. He's such a charmer as a narcissist. I know my dad is a bad person. He has lied and deceived people. Yet it must be lonely running from your karma. No one is going to let him in. And he knows. It's always going to chase him. Yet it's karma for all the hurt he's caused. You feel the sadness and anger in this song. It's a true masterpiece. Thank you Alec for writing this.

    Outrunning Karma
    That boy
    He's such a charmer
    All the bugs and their larva follow
    Him out to Colorado
    Ten dozen hearts in a bag
    Their bodies lying
    He'll drag
    Them down to Colorado
    A modern Desperado
    And he'll race for miles through the night
    He runs because he knows he cannot hide
    He's never gonna make it all the
    Poor people he's forsaken karma
    Is always gonna chase him
    For his lies
    It's a game of waiting from the
    Church steeple down to Satan karma
    There's really no escape
    Until he dies
    Outrunning Karma that boy
    Can't run no farther it's the
    Last days of sparta follow
    Him down to meet Apollo
    And he'll race for battle in the night
    He'll fight because he knows he cannot hide
    He's never gonna make it all the poor people
    His forsaken karma is always gonna chase him for his lies
    It's just a game of waiting from the
    Church steeple down to Satan karma
    There's really no escape
    Until he dies

    This is my favorite song of yours! I live in a really small country, and my school only has 500 students, so can you imagine how _excited_ I was when I heard one of my classmates humming this song?! I slammed my hand on the table and totally geeked out, barely managed to squeak, "ALEC BENJAMIN!" She turned to me, eyes wide, and said, "You know him?!" (I know it's really silly, but it totally made my day much brighter. The small things matter).

    Alec is my favourite singer now and will always be ✨. The reasons are
    1)He is a humble and a hard working person.
    2)His voice is innocent.
    3)His music is great, pleasant to hear and always with different good messages for the audience around the world.
    4) Unlike other singers he doesn't chase for fame and money.
    5) He's clean with no piercing and tattoos.
    6)He is underated, he deserves more love and support..

    I wish singers with actual talent and unique voice's became popular nowadays, cause every singer today sounds so generic but then there's people like you who sound way different from everyone else and are very talented. I know you get this allot but you should be more popular and your an amazing singer 😉
