SOMEWHERE
(Spoken)
I’m not gonna lie to you
Sometimes it all feels like too much
Haters gonna hate
Lovers gonna love
Sometimes it feels like there’s more haters than lovers
Like the world wants you to succeed
But the people don’t
The toughest choice is this:
Do you keep going…
Or give up?
All my life there’s been pushing and shoving
And people going nowhere
Trying to make it there
There have been some bruises and aching
All tryin’ to get to somewhere
Gotta make it there
Sit in the corner
Pleading to the lord
What’s it gonna take?
I’m walking, walking, walking
Going somewhere
Trying, trying, trying
My best to get there
Gotta keep moving on
Gotta build up my strength
I’m pushing, pushing, pushing
To every limit
Reaching, reaching, reaching
The sky’s no limit
Gotta keep going
Getting closer everyday
Bullies don’t know what they are missing
Trying to get somewhere
Gonna get nowhere
They don’t realize just who they are dissing
Road map to somewhere
Still leading them nowhere
I know I’ll make it one of these days
Heading to somewhere
Working hard to get there
Might not be tomorrow, Thursday, or Friday
Heading to somewhere
Know I’m gonna make it there
Got out of the corner
Talking to the lord
I know just what’s at stake
I’m walking, walking, walking
Going somewhere
Trying, trying, trying
My best to get there
Gotta keep moving on
Gotta build up my strength
I’m pushing, pushing, pushing
To every limit
Reaching, reaching, reaching
The sky’s no limit
Gotta keep going
Getting closer everyday
Everyday is one step closer
Everyone wants to get somewhere
Everyday I’m getting closer
Everyone wants to get somewhere
Everyday is one step closer
Everyone wants to get somewhere
Everyday we’re getting closer
Everyone wants to get somewhere
We’re walking, walking, walking
Going somewhere
Trying, trying, trying
Our best to get there
Gotta keep moving on
Gotta build up our strength
We’re running, running, running
We’re headed somewhere
Moving, moving, moving
We’re gonna get there
Flying, flying, flying
We’re gonna soar there
Searching, searching, searching
We know it’s out there
We’re pushing, pushing, pushing
To every limit
Reaching, reaching, reaching
The sky’s no limit
Gotta keep going
Getting closer everyday
Getting closer everyday
Everyday
Everyday is one step closer
Everyone wants to get somewhere
Everyday we’re getting closer
Everyone wants to get somewhere

or think they're already there, but their "road map" will end up leading them nowhere in the end. And in the bridge, I imagine a choir singing behind me, representing the many people who have the same dream as me to get "somewhere". In the end, we're all one step closer...
