One step then two and before you know
You\'re rushing headlong where you shouldn\'t go
The deeper you go the faster you sink
The less of you is going to think
I was fighting, I was down
I was darkness like I\'ve never known
Crawling up a muddy slope
But sliding down bereft of hope
It was from the bottom I could see
And what was once hidden was clear
All the strength and hope I had left in me
Had chased away my fear
The words are just not in me
To ever say I quit
It\'s not about what life gives
Just what you do with it
So I turned back to that slippery slope
And I slowly clawed my way free
I had found myself, I had found my hope
And I stood tall at the top for me
Now I\'m back with the power to perceive
Who I am and what that means
To see my goals and to believe
And never forget my dreams
