Lyrics
[Intro] [Instrumental: warm rhodes and subtle cinematic strings swell] [Verse 1] Footsteps echoing down the boulevard Tracing the shadows of a broken guard I left the keys to the kingdom behind No longer chasing what was never mine The neon haze is beginning to fade I’m standing tall in the choices i made The heavy air is finally clear And there’s a quiet strength where there once was fear [Chorus] Oh, i’m stepping out of the dark Reclaiming the fire from a single spark No more waiting on a shifting wind This is the place where my days begin I feel the change, i’m breaking the mold Writing a story that’s never been told (Stepping out, stepping out) Yeah, i’m starting over, brave and bold [Verse 2] The highway stretches under open skies No backward glances, no compromise I traded the comfort of a golden cage For the silent promise of an empty page My heartbeat’s steady, the rhythm is true Finding a path that is entirely new The weight has lifted, the heavy sigh I’m looking straight at a limitless sky [Chorus] Oh, i’m stepping out of the dark Reclaiming the fire from a single spark No more waiting on a shifting wind This is the place where my days begin I feel the change, i’m breaking the mold Writing a story that’s never been told (Stepping out, stepping out) Yeah, i’m starting over, brave and bold [Bridge] [Gospel backing vocals: harmonies stacking] Sometimes you gotta let the pillars fall To hear the truth of your own inner call No hesitation, no looking back We’re moving forward on a brand new track (Moving forward, yeah) [Guitar solo: clean, expressive, melodic tone] [Chorus] Oh, i’m stepping out of the dark (stepping out!) Reclaiming the fire from a single spark No more waiting on a shifting wind This is the place where my days begin I feel the change, i’m breaking the mold Writing a story that’s never been told (Stepping out, stepping out) Yeah, i’m starting over, brave and bold [Outro] Starting over... (Stepping out of the dark) With a heavy groove and a steady heart. [Cinematic strings and rhodes slowly fade out]
