one step at a time

[Intro] Skank, skank, skank - skank, skank - skank (repeat x4) [Verse 1] Woke up in a sweat, heart a frantic drum solo (ba-dum, ba-duba-dum) Brain's a broken record, stuck on worst-case scenario (doom, doom, doom) Stomach full of butterflies, got me feeling like a clown (flapping hands) Can't escape the tightening grip, anxiety's bringing me down (down, down, down) [Chorus] But I won't let it win, this internal civil war (no way, no way) Gonna break these chains, kick down the anxiety door (boom, boom, boom) Deep breaths, steady rhythm, gonna take back what's mine (yeah, yeah, yeah) One step at a time, gotta rewrite my own design (my design, my design) [Verse 2] Negative thoughts like cobwebs, clinging to my head (sticky, sticky) Voice in my ear screaming, "You're gonna fail," it's said (whispering lies) But I'm learning how to silence it, rewrite the toxic script (rip it up) Focus on the present, the future's a mystery trip (let's go, let's go) [Chorus] 'Cause I won't let it win, this internal civil war (no way, no way) Gonna break these chains, kick down the anxiety door (boom, boom, boom) Deep breaths, steady rhythm, gonna take back what's mine (yeah, yeah, yeah) One step at a time, gotta rewrite my own design (my design, my design) [Bridge] This ain't a weakness, it's a battle I gotta fight (gotta fight) Everyone struggles, gotta find their inner light (inner light) It's okay to not be okay, that's the human plight (human plight) But giving up ain't an option, gotta rise above the night (rise above) [Breakdown] Skank, skank, skank - skank, skank (repeat x8) [Chorus] I won't let it win, this internal civil war (never again, never again) Gonna break these chains, kick down the anxiety door (boom, boom, boom) Deep breaths, steady rhythm, gonna take back what's mine (it's mine, it's mine) One step at a time, I'll rewrite my own design (my design, my own design) [Outro] Yeah, I'll rewrite my own design (repeat x4) Skank, skank, skank - skank, skank (fade out)
