[Verse 1]
It ain't pretend
Ain't make-believe
It's a struggle in the real world
But it can't get the best of me
From where I've been
Took what I learned
I'm coming to the crossroads now
But I know which way to turn
[Chorus]
Oh, feet, don't fail me now
I gotta keep walking on somehow (Somehow)
Oh, please, don't fail me now
I gotta keep walking on somehow (Somehow)
[Drop]
Keep walking
(Some—)
Don't fail me
The truth (Some—)
Keep walking on
(Some—)
Don't fail me
The truth
[Verse 2]
And it's ten more miles to the city
Kingdom of my youth
Eighteen miles to the other side
'Cause, honey, I'm just passing through
Ain't always been pretty
But still I spoke the truth
Ten more steps to the riverside
I got to change my point of view
[Chorus]
Oh, please, don't fail me now
I gotta keep walking on somehow (Somehow)
Oh, please, don't fail me now
I gotta keep pushing on somehow (Somehow)
[Drop]
Keep walking
(Some—)
Don't fail me
The truth (Some—)
And it's ten more miles to the city
Keep walking
(Some—)
Don't fail me
(Somehow)
[Chorus]
Oh, feet, don't fail me now
I gotta keep walking on somehow (Somehow)
Oh, feet, don't fail me now
I gotta keep pushing on somehow (Somehow)
