GUEST,Gerry	Seeking song---run, walk, crawl, sing (5)	RE: Seeking song---run, walk, crawl, sing	08 Aug 17
This is probably not what you're looking for, but at https://genius.com/Bts-not-today-lyrics I found the song, Not Today, by BTS, and it has one stanza that goes, If you can't fly, then run Today we will survive If you can't run, then walk Today we will survive If you can't walk, then crawl Even if you have to crawl, gear up Aim your gun! Ready! Fire! I also found something on page 310 of The Papers of Martin Luther King, Jr., that might come from the Langston Hughes poem, Mother to Son: If you can't fly, run; if you can't run, walk; if you can't walk, crawl, but by all means, keep moving! Here's a source that attributes the sentence to King, with a hat tip to Isaiah: https://literarydevices.net/if-you-cant-fly-then-run/ But there's no singing in any of these.
