Step by step

I wandered through the storm

Tracing shadows of the past

Hands trembling, heart reborn

Learning how to breathe at last

The river bends and calls my name

Washing all that I once claimed

Every step a gentle prayer

Finding strength in open air

Step by step, I touch the sky

Step by step, I learn to fly

No more darkness, no disguise

Step by step, I feel alive (alive)

Every breath a brand new start

Every tear a work of art

Step by step, I leave the night

Step by step, I claim the light

Mirror cracks but shows me more

A soul that's healing, reaching shore

Bruised but blooming, roots run deep

Awake from nights I used to keep

The river bends and calls my name

Washing all that I once claimed

Every step a gentle prayer

Finding strength in open air

Step by step, I touch the sky

Step by step, I learn to fly

No more darkness, no disguise

Step by step, I feel alive (alive)

Every breath a brand new start

Every tear a work of art

Step by step, I leave the night

Step by step, I claim the light

No more ghosts, no more pain

Just the sun after the rain

I’m the ember that won’t depart

A soft warmth inside my heart

Step by step, I touch the sky

Step by step, I learn to fly

No more darkness, no disguise

Step by step, I feel alive (alive)

Every breath a brand new start

Every tear a work of art

Step by step, I leave the night

Step by step, I claim the light
