Lyrics
See I am running for my life
I got heaven on my mind
You can't catch me again
Move satan move
You can't catch me again
See I am running for my life
I got heaven on my mind
You can't catch me again
Move satan move
You can't catch me again
You hold me down for a very long time
Wanted to go but you wouldn't let me go
Now I am free you come running after me
But you can't catch me again
See I am running for my life
I got heaven on my mind
You can't catch me again
Move satan move
You can't catch me again
Me say You can't catch me again
Move satan move
You can't catch me again
Move satan move make me pass
I am born again saved and sanctified
Move satan move make me pass

Meaning & Inspiration
Running for My Life (Caan Ketch Me Again) portrays conversion as an urgent escape from Satan’s former hold. Its runner keeps heaven in view and refuses to return to bondage. The repeated command for Satan to move gives the song a defiant, forward-driving quality, while the confession of being born again, saved, and sanctified explains the freedom behind that confidence.
The movement from captivity to freedom reflects Colossians 1:13, which describes rescue from the dominion of darkness and transfer into Christ’s kingdom. The image of pressing forward with a heavenly goal also recalls Philippians 3:13-14. Rather than dwelling on the length of the former oppression, the lyric emphasizes a changed identity and a clear destination. Its concise Caribbean gospel refrain turns spiritual resistance into testimony: the old captor no longer determines the singer’s course.
