Progress, Not Perfection

[Verse 1] Each new day hits harder than the last, Still movin’ forward, I ain’t lookin’ back. Every roadblock standin' in my way, I face it head-on, no matter how gray. When doubt gets loud, won’t let me breathe, I trust these words that I believe. [Pre-Chorus] When I feel like I’m about to break, I answer the question I’m too scared to face. [Chorus] Just take it... One step at a time, One day at a time. Till I wake up and finally find, Somethin’ that’s mine. Little by little, I’m carving my lane. Live in the moment, Through the pressure, the pain. Slowly but surely, Brick by brick, Scar by scar, Hit by hit— I won’t quit, I won’t quit. One step at a time… One step at a time. [Verse 2] When I’m too drained just to leave my bed, I replay every word I said. Ain’t nobody comin’ to carry me through, They don’t see the fight from my point of view. It’s a long way up, but I see the top, So I tell myself—don’t ever stop. [Pre-Chorus] When the weight feels too much to hold, I hear that voice I’ve come to know. [Chorus] Just take it... One step at a time, One day at a time. Till I wake up and finally find, Somethin’ that’s mine. Little by little, I’m carving my lane. Live in the moment, Through the pressure, the pain. Slowly but surely, Brick by brick, Scar by scar, Hit by hit— I won’t quit, I won’t quit. One step at a time… One step at a time. [Bridge] Day by day, I’m learnin’ to stand, With empty pockets and open hands. The storm don’t pass, it teaches me, How to be who I’m meant to be. Echoes in my mind won’t fade away— “One step at a time… just focus today.” Just take it... [Final Chorus] Just take it… One step at a time, One day at a time. Even slow, I’m still in the climb, Closer with every stride. Little by little, I’m finding my place. Live in the moment, No need to race. Slowly but surely, Brick by brick, Scar by scar, Hit by hit— I won’t quit, I won’t quit. One step at a time… One step at a time. [Outro] Slowly but surely, I’m getting through this. No matter how far, No matter how long it is. Little by little, I’m finding my way— One step at a time… Just for today. One step at a time, One day at a time.
