"Real (Get By)" lyrics

He's real, don't you know?
The boy who's sleeping on the street down the road
He has no one else, just him looking over
His shoulder

She's real, don't you know?
The girl with a baby sister begging down the road
The heavy burden just to live is on her shoulder
When will it be over?

As the world's getting older
Why are we getting colder?

Live on the fastest lane
Always on the run
As you try to get by today
Say your prayers, you're not alone

(As the world's getting older)
As the world's getting older
Why are we getting colder?
As the world's getting colder
You can rest on my shoulder (Rest on my shoulder)

La, la la la la, la la la la la la
La, la la la la, la la la la la la
La, la la la la, la la la la la la
