Recording

Some

of

the

inspiration

of

the

song

was

derived

from

various

media

controversies

including

Wests

interruption

of

recording

artist

Taylor

Swift

at

the

MTV

Video

Music

Awards

during

her

acceptance

speech

The

controversy

caused

West

to

exile

himself

in

Oahu

Hawaii

and

record

his

fifth

studio

album

mostly

in

a

reclusive

nature

shying

away

from

collaborating

with

artists

he

wasnt

personally

close

to

Like

the

majority

of

My

Beautiful

Dark

Twisted

Fantasy

Runaway

was

produced

there

Amongst

the

various

artists

invited

down

to

Hawaii

to

record

songs

for

the

album

was

Pusha

T

a

rapper

known

for

the

hiphop

duo

Clipse

According

to

Pusha

T

the

song

was

recorded

in

either

March

or

April

Most

of

the

recording

crew

on

the

project

had

forgotten

and

or

forgiven

West

for

the

incident

with

Swift

including

Pusha

T

who

described

the

event

as

old

news

By

the

time

Pusha

T

was

supposed

to

record

his

verse

for

the

song

West

had

already

recorded

a

majority

of

the

song

Pusha

T

had

to

record

his

verse

several

times

because

West

didnt

think

Pusha

T

was

being

mean

enough

for

the

concept

of

the

song

the

first

few

times

Pusha

T

commented

that

redoing

a

verse

was

something

he

very

rarely

did

Generally

Pusha

T

would

write

his

verses

very

quickly

and

noted

that

he

made

the

exception

for

West

who

he

had

described

as

a

perfectionist

During

the

recording

process

the

two

had

collaborated

on

several

songs

together

Pusha

T

called

the

recording

process

of

the

song

interesting

and

stated

West

invited

Pusha

T

down

to

Hawaii

to

record

Runaway

While

recording

the

song

West

made

PushaT

record

his

verse

several

times

We

recorded

quite

a

few

songs

He

had

the

record

already

and

was

like

Yo

I

want

you

on

this

record

A

lot

of

stuff

from

him

comes

from

conversation

Hell

talk

to

you

and

get

a

feel

for

your

perspective

and

your

outlook

on

shit

And

later

hell

be

like

Yo

I

want

you

on

this

I

got

a

record

that

that

perspective

would

fit

on

Thats

how

he

operates

You

will

find

yourself

explaining

yourself

and

if

you

cant

explain

the

reasoning

behind

the

things

youre

saying

in

a

verse

or

whatever

the

case

may

be

it

might

West

was

so

impressed

with

PushaTs

performance

while

recording

Runaway

that

he

signed

him

under

his

own

personal

label

About

his

portion

of

the

song

West

stated

that

he

was

interested

in

making

a

song

that

the

average

person

could

relate

to

as

he

perceived

himself

as

someone

who

identified

with

the

average

person

West

mused

that

when

writing

the

song

he

intended

some

parts

of

the

song

as

a

double

entendre

According

to

West

some

portions

of

the

song

sound

like

West

is

commenting

about

his

relationship

with

a

girl

when

he

is

also

talking

about

his

relationship

with

the

media

and

society

He

mused

I

like

leaving

songs

ambiguous

a

little

bit

where

its

like

it

could

be

about

other

people

It

could

be

about

yourself

The

song

was

called

an

anthem

for

both

men

and

women

by

him

who

stated

he

wanted

both

genders

to

be

able

to

relate

to

the

song

He

summarized

the

song

as

a

toast

for

the

douchebags

While

some

of

the

inspiration

of

the

song

was

drawn

from

the

incident

with

Swift

it

was

noted

that

the

song

was

not

an

apology

On

his

Twitter

account

West

commented

that

he

had

written

a

beautiful

song

for

her

noting

if

she

wont

take

it

then

Ill

perform

it

for

her

Lawrence

Dong

was

another

artist

who

West

had

called

down

to

Hawaii

Some

of

the

drumming

pattern

featured

on

the

were

from

performed

by

The

song

takes

influences

from

the

hip

hop

genre

and

contains

a

large

array

of

musical

instruments

The

song

begins

with

a

sparse

isolated

sounding

piano

melody

that

drones

on

during

the

start

of

the

song

After

about

a

minute

and

a

half

West

provides

his

first

verse

West

sings

youve

been

putting

up

with

my

shit

just

way

too

long

before

launching

into

the

ironic

chorus

of

lets

have

a

toast

for

the

douchebags

A

vocal

sample

of

Look

at

you

Look

at

you

is

also

heard

throughout

the

song

at

seemingly

random

points

excerpted

from

Rick

James

live

performance

in

Long

Beach

California

West

begs

his

girlfriend

to

run

away

from

his

destructive

behavior

warning

her

of

further

behavior

while

also

dwelling

on

his

own

intimacy

issues

The

piano

chord

that

introduces

the

song

continues

on

but

the

production

then

introduces

a

forceful

cello

and

a

light

string

section

The

second

verse

is

delivered

by

Pusha

T

who

is

used

as

a

juxtaposition

against

West

where

West

is

heartfelt

and

sincere

towards

his

girlfriend

the

song

Pusha

T

is

rude

towards

his

and

also

glorifies

cocaine

dealing

After

the

composition

continues

West

ends

the

song

with

a

threeminute

unintelligible

outro

containing

a

distorted

West

utilizing

a

vocoder

It

begins

with

West

mumbling

something

that

sounds

like

Ima

be

honest

before

the

vocal

effects

drowns

out

what

is

audible

in

his

words

to

the

point

where

what

he

is

saying

is

impossible

to

understand

Allmusic

editor

Andy

Kellman

commented

that

when

West

blows

into

a

device

and

comes

out

sounding

something

like

a

muffled

bristly

version

of

Robert

Fripp

s

guitar

Slant

Magazine

s

Matthew

Cole

interpreted

the

purpose

of

the

outro

as

a

fantasy

of

escape

through

pure

catharsis

with

the

vocoder

literalizing

Kanyes

ability

to

transform

his

personal

shortcomings

into

art

Chicago

Tribune

writer

Greg

Kot

described

the

production

of

the

song

in

detail

writing

Ostensibly

sung

by

a

groom

to

his

new

bride

at

a

wedding

the

song

plays

as

an

apology

a

warning

and

a

defiant

manifesto

The

music

mirrors

that

complexity

A

midtempo

funkydrummer

beat

glides

underneath

the

melancholy

reverberating

piano

notes

while

a

deep

mushrooming

bass

tone

threatens

to

swallow

everything

Brusque

cello

strokes

contrast

with

elegiac

violins

while

a

dirty

guitar

wends

through

the

string

section

like

a

drunk

knocking

over

music

stands

and

splattering

mud

on

the

whitetablecloth

beauty

Its

a

turbulent

combination

of

sounds

brooding

and

chastened

in

the

verses

oddly

triumphant

and

darkly

humorous

during

the

choruses

Another

explanation

of

the

ending

of

the

song

is

a

commentary

on

how

West

a

rapper

has

attempted

to

rap

throughout

his

career

but

has

been

unable

to

do

so

because

of

the

media

The

media

has

drowned

out

his

words

with

noise

like

the

ending

of

the

song

where

what

hes

attempting

to

say

is

unhearable

Another

interpretation

was

proposed

by

Chicago

SunTimes

writer

Thomas

Conner

who

Slant

Magazines

Matthew

Cole

described

the

song

as

Wests

greatest

showcase

as

a

writer

Cole

stated

that

the

song

was

deeply

personal

in

nature

viewing

it

as

an

agonizing

portrait

of

a

man

trying

to

exit

the

black

hole

of

his

implacable

ego

Entertainment

Weekly

s

Simon

VozickLevinson

stated

that

the

song

was

a

successful

case

of

selfreflection

lyrically

writing

that

it

casts

the

excesses

around

it

in

a

new

light

West

may

be

obnoxious

but

at

least

hes

interested

in

confronting

those

aspects

of

his

identity

through

his

music

Few

would

dare

do

Pitchfork

Media

s

Ryan

Dombal

commented

that

it

was

one

of

Wests

best

songs

describing

it

as

funny

sad

and

relatable

Dombal

mused

that

with

the

song

he

rousingly

highlights

his

own

douchebaggery

turning

it

into

a

rallying

cry

for

all

humanity

and

described

the

vocal

manipulation

towards

the

end

as

sounding

like

a

dying

cyborg

Another

writer

for

Pitchfork

Tom

Breihan

dubbed

the

track

Best

New

Music

and

was

surprised

with

what

he

perceived

to

be

Wests

growth

as

a

writer

reporting

as

the

VMA

moment

fades

into

the

rearview

Runaway

is

able

to

stand

as

just

that

a

song

and

a

seriously

goddam

good

one

at

that

Thomas

Conner

of

the

Chicago

SunTimes

cited

the

song

as

the

thesis

statement

to

the

rest

of

the

album

calling

it

epic

and

musing

that

Wests

difficulty

in

communicating

makes

him

a

menace

in

the

real

world

but

its

pretty

compelling

on

record

Jonah

Weiner

of

viewed

that

the

three

minute

conclusion

of

the

song

was

the

most

arresting

moments

on

My

Beautiful

Dark

Twisted

Fantasy

Chris

Martins

of

Spin

called

the

song

a

piano

driven

epic

and

noted

that

there

was

only

one

way

to

interpret

the

early

message

sent

by

Runaway

he

was

calling

himself

an

asshole

IGN

s

Chad

Grischow

felt

that

the

three

minute

conclusion

was

overlong

but

commented

that

with

the

icy

chill

of

the

and

naked

beat

sound

fantastic

while

calling

the

soaring

Kitty

of

The

Guardian

complimented

the

scope

of

the

track

stating

taking

things

to

the

next

level

is

one

of

hiphops

great

cliches

an

achievement

that

West

can

comfortably

claim

Being

both

a

hero

and

something

of

a

jackass

all

at

the

same

time

Thats

another

thing

entirely

Rolling

Stone

writer

Rob

Sheffield

praised

the

ending

of

the

song

writing

that

it

came

up

at

a

point

of

the

song

when

the

song

has

already

sealed

itself

in

your

brain

summarizing

that

theres

no

way

it

should

work

but

it

keeps

rolling

for

three

more

minutes

without

breaking

the

spell

David

Browne

of

Time

stated

that

the

song

much

like

Lost

in

the

World

feature

shimmering

soundscapes

that

pinpoint

a

common

ground

between

the

hardness

of

hiphop

featured

a

number

of

songs

longer

than

five

minutes

in

duration

they

all

feel

incredibly

lean

and

devoid

of

bullshit

Freeman

stated

that

the

track

primarily

slides

right

by

because

of

its

gorgeous

beat

and

Kanyes

excellent

vocals

style

singing

sans

autotune

plus

laidback

rapping

the

calling

an

anthem

writing

that

it

contained

some

of

Wests

simplest

and

most

melodic

production

AbsolutePunk

s

Drew

Beringer

reported

that

track

embodied

the

electronic

melancholy

of

cited

the

song

as

an

a

Kyle

Anderson

of

MTV

proposed

that

the

song

was

the

best

single

of

Wests

career

writing

but

theres

something

about

Runaway

that

makes

it

feel

just

a

little

bit

more

special

like

it

could

really

end

up

in

the

named

Runaway

the

best

of

commenting

that

it

was

Kanyes

musical

response

to

the

Taylor

affair

but

its

much

more

than

that

a

meditation

on

failure

infamy

creates

a

out

also

its
