[Verse 1]
Listen
Too much pride to back off of it, mmm
I wear it well when no one can see
I'm talking about pain
Gonna take trials to be delivered
Y'all know that happiness ain't for free
I'm heading down the wrong way
Please somebody won't you
Oh please, won't somebody please stop me, yeah
[Chorus]
My soul is on fire
And I can't take this fight no way
Got me running, got me running, got me running, got me running, got me running
My soul is on fire
And I can't face another day
[Verse 2]
Listen
I'm still hurting, 'bout to give up
Done lost sleep, and lost weight, I'm doing bad
Getting hard to keep my chin up
I need somebody to kneel and pray for me, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm heading down the wrong way
It's getting hard for me to breathe, yeah
Oh please, won't somebody please stop me
[Chorus]
My soul is on fire
And I can't take this fight no way
Got me running, got me running, got me running, got me running, got me running
My soul is on fire
And I can't face another day
(I can't face another day, yeah)
[Bridge]
(Oh-oh, my soul) My soul got me burning, got me hurting, got me
(Oh-oh, my soul) Won't you pray, won't you help me, won't you pray for me
(Oh-oh, oh)
Spark like the real me
Please, won't somebody, stop, won't you help me
[Chorus]
My soul is on fire (My soul is on fire, yeah)
And I can't take this fight no way
Got me running, got me running, got me running, yeah
My soul is on fire
And I can't face another day
(I can't make it through another day, yeah)
My soul is on fire (Got me watching my back)
And I can't take this fight no way
(You got me giving up, and I gotta keep my chin up)
My soul is on fire
(Please, won't you help me, yeah)
And I can't face another day
(Got me running, got me running, got me
Got me running, got me running, got me)
[Outro]
Won't somebody call the preacher, let him help me, say
Call my mother, won't you tell her just to stop and pray
Please somebody won't you help me through another day
I can't make it out
Somebody, won't you just
Help me thorough my problems, won't you
Give a little faith to me
Say a little prayer for me
Somebody call my friend
Somebody call my friend
