Another Step (feat. Pianoman Darrel & Fernando Perdomo)

A new year comes
And I'm so tired
I'm so afraid the worst is yet to come
I've got some hope
'Cause it's required
But it is hard to drum up
The enthusiasm
After the past year beat me down
It won the battle and then some
Most days I'm numb
But mostly functional

A new year starts
With resolutions
I used to stay up
Dreaming through the night
Of grand success
Of evolution
And recognition I would take in stride
But after waves came crashing down
I'm simply trying not drown
It's hard enough to get things done
Without the pressure and the hype

But if I take another step
And then another and then another
I'm gonna make a different map
With many wonders to discover
January, February
I'll be counting one two three
Down a path I cannot see
Move my feet steadily

So here's to those
Who didn't make it
And here's to us
Those of us still here
A new year comes
Ours for the taking
To make a choice
To live or die in fear

But if we take another step
And then another
Then still another
And choose our hearts
Over our heads
We'll make it all the way to summer
March to April, May and June
Sun will greet us none too soon
Keep it up till flowers bloom
And we will
And we will
And we will
And we will
We will shine
And we will
We will
We will shine
