My feet are stuck to the ground

My body's stiff from my legs up through my crown

My heart is beating

My ears are ringing

My will is crumbling down

Voices in my head

Filling my mind and eyes with dread

Now I'm shaking

Is this breaking?

Why am I seeing red?

With all these small steps

They take big courage

I'm learning to love myself in life

With every small step

Well it takes big courage

I'm learning not to apologize

Will it be enough?

Or will I give up far too much?

Well I am learning

That my heart is yearning for feats

That you say are too grand

But all these small steps

Well they take big courage

I'm learning to love myself in life

With every small step

Well it takes big courage

I'm learning not to apologize

Ooooohhhhh yeah

Oooooohhhhh oooh oh oh

Am I ready to fly?

I take a deep breath in

And close my eyes

Because I am trying

So there's no use shying away now

I'm facing up to the day

With all these small steps

Well, they take big courage

I'm learning to love myself in life

With every small step

Well it takes big courage

I'm learning not to apologize

For all these small steps

They take big courage

I'm learning to love myself in life

With every small step

Well it takes big courage

I'm learning not to apologize
