Charlie Winston - Every Step Lyrics

I'm a fool to be kind to you
It's not what the men in your life tend to do
Must be so strange, finding someone
Who only accepts you

Rejection's a lesson you've had
You're lost in the anger you feel for your dad
But oh, how he loves you
There's no doubt with all his high hopes for you

I could push you away
I could say, "I don't want you no more"
I could drive you right into the floor
And tell you are useless

Get used to it, lady
But I'm big in believing that, baby
You're bigger than that
It's respect for yourself that you lack

And success, it's a mood
That you chose with every step

I want to grow old with you
To hold your old hand
And look back on our youth
I will be strong, times I might not
I'm only human

I could push you away
I could say, "I don't want you no more"
I could drive you right into the floor
And tell you are useless

Get used to it, lady
But I'm big in believing that, baby
You're bigger than that
It's respect for yourself that you lack

And success it's a mood
That you chose with every step

So, be free like a bumble bee
Spread wings like a bird
Squawk like a peacock
And let your voice be heard

It's okay
I have no lock, key or a cage
You've got to want to stay

I won't push you away
I won't say I don't want you no more
I won't drive you right into the floor
But I'll tell you you're beautiful

Get on with it, lady
'Cause I'm big in believing that, baby
You're bigger than that
It's respect for yourself that you lack

And success, it's a mood
That you chose with every step

So take step, it's just step by step
