Flo Rida, cuyo nombre de pila es Tramar Lacel Dillard, nació el 17 de septiembre de 1979 en el vecindario de Carol City en Miami Gardens, Florida. Desde una edad temprana, Tramar vivió rodeado de música; su familia estaba profundamente conectada con la escena musical. Su madre cantaba en un grupo musical amateur de gospel, y se dice que una de sus ocho hermanas era corista para el aclamado grupo de rap 2 Live Crew.
Flo Rida creció en un ambiente en el que la cultura urbana y el rap eran omnipresentes. Durante sus años de adolescencia, fue miembro del grupo amateur de rap denominado GroundHoggz. Sin embargo, en búsqueda de una mayor proyección, decidió emprender su carrera en solitario.
Los primeros pasos hacia el estrellato no fueron fáciles. En 2006, firmó con la discográfica Poe Boy Entertainment y colaboró con varios artistas antes de lograr su gran éxito. Su oportunidad dorada llegó en 2007 con el sencillo Low, en colaboración con T-Pain. La canción se convirtió en un éxito rotundo y dominó las listas de éxitos en diversas partes del mundo, permaneciendo diez semanas consecutivas en la cima del Billboard Hot 100.
Este repentino éxito le ofreció la posibilidad de lanzar su álbum debut, Mail on Sunday, en 2008. A partir de este momento, la carrera de Flo Rida se catapultó, y su nombre se hizo sinónimo de éxitos discotequeros y veraniegos.

Running Back
[Part 1]
These days, you barely even say my name,
Like you don't really feel the same,
I'm wondering what's to blame.
These nights, I fall asleep wondering where you are,
It feels like we're falling apart,
And it's only breaking my heart.
Cause if being with you means being alone,
And never knowing when you're coming home,
Then I guess I'm better off on my own.
[Chorus]
But I can't move on,
Cause that means forgetting, forgetting everything we had,
Instead I keep running, keep running, I keep running back.
Cause I keep forgetting, forgetting you treat me so bad,
So I keep on coming, keep coming, I keep coming back.
I keep coming back
I keep running back (x 2)
I keep coming back
I keep running back (x 2)
I keep coming, I keep coming back.
[Part 2]
My friends say, that I should leave you behind,
And stop wasting all of my time,
They tell me that I'm outta my mind.
But I know that what we both share is real,
And I've been willing to deal,
With the way that you're making me feel.
Cause if being with you means being alone,
And never knowing when you're coming home,
Then I guess I'm better off on my own.
[Chorus]
But I can't move on,
Cause that means me forgetting, forgetting everything we had,
Instead I keep running, keep running, I keep running back.
Cause I keep forgetting, forgetting you treat me so bad,
So I keep on coming, keep coming, I keep coming back.
I keep coming back,
I keep running back (x 2),
I keep coming back,
I keep running back (x 2),
I keep coming, I keep coming back.
[Rap]
Ma-ma-ma-mama caught up,
We done all heard the same story,
Just different authors,
this book crazy.
Always a lady,
Looking for love where there's a maybe,
They might could be together,
They fight to be together,
A'ight to be together.
Shorty, yeah he cheated,
You say you don't need it,
Turn around and leave it,
Oh, he back next week.
Fuss... Fight,
And then the whole thing repeat like nothing ever happened,
Dat was just rapping,
No publishing,
Shorty you knew that he don't got the same government.
Lil mama can't move on,
But it's her fault she struggling,
She can't... move... on.
[Chorus]
But I can't move on,
Cause that means forgetting, forgetting everything we had,
Instead I keep running, keep running, I keep coming back.
I keep coming back,
Keep running back,
And I keep coming back,
I keep running back,
I keep coming back,
I keep running back,
I keep running, keep running back.
I can keep coming back,
I can keep coming back,
I can keep running back,
I can keep coming back,
I can keep running back...
To you.
