One More Step
A resilient anthem for the moments when the whole road feels impossible—about finding enough strength for one more breath, one more step, and the dawn waiting beyond the dark.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I’ve been staring at the ceiling,
Trying to remember who I was.
Every road looks like a mountain,
Every breath feels like too much.
I can’t see beyond the shadows,
I can’t tell how this will end—
But somewhere underneath the hurting,
There’s a voice that says again:
[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t need the strength for tomorrow,
You don’t have to see what comes next.
If there’s anything left inside you,
Let it carry you one more step.
[Chorus]
One more step,
That’s all I have to take.
One more breath,
Even if my whole heart breaks.
I don’t have to reach the mountain,
I don’t have to know what’s next.
If all I have is one more step,
Then one more step is enough.
[Verse 2]
There were days I thought were endings,
There were nights I nearly let go.
But the ground beneath my footsteps
Shows I’ve traveled more than I know.
Every inch became a heartbeat,
Every scar became a sign:
There was something deep within me
That refused to be left behind.
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need the strength for forever,
I just need what hasn’t left.
There’s a fire beneath these ashes—
Just enough for one more step.
[Chorus]
One more step,
That’s all I have to take.
One more breath,
Even if my whole heart breaks.
I don’t have to reach the mountain,
I don’t have to know what’s next.
If all I have is one more step,
Then one more step is enough.
[Bridge]
And step by step, the road grows shorter.
Breath by breath, the light breaks through.
What I thought would be my ending
Led me somewhere bright and new.
Now I know the strength I searched for
Wasn’t waiting up ahead—
It was buried deep inside me,
Rising every time I said:
[Final Chorus]
One more step,
I know that I can take it.
One more breath,
I may bend, but I won’t break yet.
I can finally see the mountain,
And how far these feet have come.
Every step became a promise
That the darkness hadn’t won.
One more step—
Then another after that.
I found the strength I never knew
Was waiting where I’m at.
I don’t need to know the ending,
I just need what I have left.
And if all I have is one more step,
Then one more step is enough.
[Outro]
One more breath,
One more dawn,
One more step—
And I keep moving on.
