Step back, realize
I've not gone anywhere
But back and forth again
And I miss you my friend

The one who stands up for me
And this better version of me is missing
And I've realized
(That)

My motivations cry
At the thought of confrontation
(And)
I am coming up with new ways everyday
(Won't make it until I try)
To stay right where I am

First step, realize
If I pretend that I'm who I want to be
It might rub off on me

The one who stands up for me
And this better version of me is missing
And I've realized
(That)

My motivations cry
At the thought of confrontation
(Can't make it until I try)

(And)
I am coming up with new ways everyday
(won't make it)

Once I read through what you say
I won't have to stay right where I am
Once I read through what you say
I won't have to stay right where I am

Step back, realize
Set your example it will turn out all right
Step up, just in time
To take the place among the heroes in your mind

You're the only critic worth listening to
(Can't make it until I try)
You've got to step back, step up, step up, just in time
(Won't make it until I try)
