Intro:
yeah...

Instrumental Break:

Not this again,
Oh well
I drag myself out of bed.
Same thoughts running through my head.
I always thought by now
I’d have a little more to show,
But the days move fast and the progress moves so slow.
I had a picture in my mind of who I was supposed to be,
But that person still feels miles away from me.
So I just grit my teeth and push against the tide,
Trying to find the spark
I know I’ve kept inside.

Chorus:
I just need one more step.
I’m not where I want to be,
I’m not finished yet.
Yeah, my hands are shaking,
But I’m placing my bet.
The only thing blocking the door is the fear I let in.
I just need one more step.
Running on fumes with whatever I have left.
I’m gonna carve out a spot
Where I don’t feel like a guest.
Quiet the noise and put the doubt to rest.
I just take one more step.

Instrumental Break:

Verse 2:
I’m burning the candle at both ends of the night.
Reading the books,
Trying to get the strategy right.
I know I’ve messed up,
Took some turns that were wrong,
But you learn a lot when you’ve been lost for this long.
And I know that nobody is handing this to me,
There’s no free ride and nothing comes easily.
So I’ll take the bruises,
I’ll take the hit,
I’m too far in now to ever think about quit.

Bridge:
It’s a long climb up.
And I might slip down.
But I’m not turning back around.
No, I'm not turning around.

Instrumental drop:

Chorus/Outro:
I just need one more step.
I’m not where I want to be,
I’m not finished yet.
Yeah,
My hands are shaking,
But I’m placing my bet.
The only thing blocking the door
Is the fear I let in.
I just need one more step.
Running on fumes with whatever I have left.
I’m gonna carve out a spot where
I don’t feel like a guest.
Quiet the noise and put the doubt to rest.
I just take one more step.
Just one more step.
