Walk
6. Kwabs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Gotta slow up, gotta shake this high
Gotta take a minute just to ease my mind
'Cause if I don't walk then I get caught up
And I'll be falling all the way down

Hundred headlights making me blind
All of your pleasures catching my eye
If I jump once, then I never think twice
But your temptations make me stay another night
And my senses only lie to me, lie to me
I don't know how I feel so wrapped in me, wrapped in me
I gotta check myself
Before I get what I want to, find out is not what I thought it was
And you know why I

Gotta slow up, gotta shake this high
Gotta take a minute just to ease my mind
'Cause if I don't walk then I get caught up
And I'll be falling all the way down

Turning my head and shutting my eyes
Doesn't even matter if I'm wrong or right
'Cause if I don't walk, I can't even sit around
And I'll be falling all the way down

Tell myself "Leave" while I'm still strong
Don't look back!" till I'm ten miles gone
And when the road stops, I'm gonna keep on
Until I end up in the place that I belong
But the pressure is pushing me back again
Telling me not to pretend
There isn't any use to even trying to get you out of my head
So, I lift my feet off the ground
And I'm gonna walk right up

Gotta slow up, gotta shake this high
Gotta take a minute just to ease my mind
'Cause if I don't walk then I get caught up
And I'll be falling all the way down

Turning my head and shutting my eyes
Doesn't even matter if I'm wrong or right
'Cause if I don't walk, I can't even sit around
And I'll be falling all the way down

Won't get caught in the old fly trap
Runaway, runaway, never come back
No way I'm going down like that
No, no, runaway, runaway

Won't get caught in the old fly trap
Runaway, runaway, never come back (I can't get caught up again!)
No way I'm going down like that (No way)
No, no, runaway, runaway (No, no)

Gotta slow up, gotta shake this high
Gotta take a minute just to ease my mind
'Cause if I don't walk then I get caught up
And I'll be falling all the way down

Turning my head and shutting my eyes
Doesn't even matter if I'm wrong or right
'Cause if I don't walk, I can't even sit around
And I'll be falling all the way down yeah

I'm gonna walk now
I'm gonna walk now
Yeah, no, no, no




Gonna walk
Yeah yeah oh, no, no, no, no yeah oh

Overall Meaning

The song “Walk” by Kwabs is an uplifting and inspiring track about overcoming challenges and finding the strength to move forward in life. The lyrics are about the struggles of temptation, and the importance of taking a step back to clear your mind before making any rash decisions. Kwabs urges his listeners to slow down, release any negativity or stress, and take a moment to breathe before moving forward. He also emphasizes the detrimental impact of not letting go of negative energy and recognizing when it’s time to move on before falling too far. Ultimately, the song is about finding resilience and the motivation to keep going even in the face of adversity.


In the first verse, Kwabs mentions how he needs to slow down and clear his mind before getting “caught up” and falling “all the way down.” He acknowledges the many temptations and distractions around him, but ultimately makes the choice to walk away and leave them behind. The pre-chorus repeats the fact that his senses are lying to him, and he needs to check himself before making any decisions he might regret.


The chorus is the most memorable part of the song, with Kwabs repeating the lyrics “Gotta slow up, gotta shake this high, gotta take a minute just to ease my mind, 'Cause if I don't walk then I get caught up, And I'll be falling all the way down.” This part of the song emphasizes the importance of staying grounded, staying true to oneself, and walking away from negativity.


The second verse follows a similar pattern to the first, with Kwabs describing the pressures that are pushing him back and the temptation to give up or give into something that’s not good for him. But he affirms his choice to keep going and walking away from that which doesn’t serve him.
