When you step, you take

When you step, you take a chance.

When you're scared, you tend to glance

Back at things you couldn't have.

What you've lost, you can't get back.

Don't turn now, or fall off track.

Then circle round as the ground cracks.

When you step, it feels so long

To get to where you know you belong.

And yet, you can't simply stand still.

Life without change can't be a thrill.

Keep on going, make your own

But keep in mind you're not alone.

Be scared, be nervous, but don't give in.

It's hard, but work is how we win.
