I was mainly sad I was rarely glad but y'all couldn't see Burnin' all these bridges That I built to keep me from the sea Latency, people I love closest put they stakes in me If they saw my change in actions They might start replacing me Y'all was supposed to keep my world together When it starts to quake Tryna hold my shattered dreams alone Was somethin' I couldn't take Led me down a course of action Typically I'd never make And maybe it was a mistake I remember all the late nights Stressin' over problems I couldn't control Tryna fix them was always the goal Things that were out of my hands Always dug into my soul Slowly created a hole Till I started sayin' it is what it is And kept on repeatin' the phrase Knowin' I ain't got the power to do what I wanna Why stress anyways Had to get out my feelings Put on a smile So I don't stress out my folks It's tradition to speak on the demons you fightin' And then play it off as a joke Step, step, step by step Take it step by step by step You gotta let it go Step, step, step by step Take it step by step by step Accept that it is what it is Step, step by step Take it step by step by step You gotta let it go Step, step, step by step Cuz it is what it is I come from a culture where it is tradition to dance for the dead And bury the body the following morning The sequence will mess with my head As a child, I ain't understand But the spirits are helping me learn Same reason people tend to bury the body Or put the ashes in the urn We act differently when we in grief Then you combo that pain with belief And then hope that it gets you relief And then hope that it gives you relief In Naija, see we typically dance Or you sat at a table with tears See me when I am given the chance I step for my fam and my peers I hope when you hear this lil' melody It gets you onto your feet I hope that you listen and dance to the beat I hope that you think of me fondly And it makes you wanna repeat I hope you accept me admitting defeat I hope you accept that my time was complete If I'm being honest, I'm having regrets on the loss But I cannot come back and compete I hope when you hear this lil' melody It gets you onto your feet I hope that you listen and dance to the beat I hope that you think of me fondly And it makes you wanna repeat I hope you accept me admitting defeat I hope you accept that my time was complete If I'm being honest, I'm having regrets on the loss But I cannot come back and compete Step, step, step by step Take it step by step by step You gotta let it go Step, step, step by step Take it step by step by step Accept that it is what it is Step, step by step Take it step by step by step You gotta let it go Step, step, step by step Cause it is what it is
