Lyrics

One First Step

[Verse]
Every long journey begins with one first step,
But what if your shoes are prone to misstep?
The road ahead is calling, it’s all laid out,
But my heels are wobbling—oh, there’s some doubt.

[Prechorus]
Oh, courage, where’ve you gone to hide?
This map’s upside down, but I’ll still stride!

[Chorus]
One first step, that’s all it takes,
Even if the ground beneath me quakes.
I’ll trip, I’ll stumble, but I won’t regret,
The magic begins with one first step!

[Verse 2]
A thousand miles may seem quite grand,
But I’m just focused on where I’ll land.
Do I leap like a gazelle or crawl like a snail?
Either way, I’ll get there, on this wobbly trail.

[Prechorus]
Oh, destiny, don’t tease and flirt,
I’m moving forward, though my feet might hurt!

[Chorus]
One first step, that’s all it takes,
Even if the ground beneath me quakes.
I’ll trip, I’ll stumble, but I won’t regret,
The magic begins with one first step!
