[Intro] Yeah, bring it in, let the record breathe One step, two step, now move with me [Verse 1] I came through the doorway with a notebook bent Every page got a purpose, every bar got rent From the corner store chatter to the late bus route I learned what a promise costs when the lights go out No borrowed shine, I built mine from the floor Turned a half-closed window to an open door Now the whole block knows when the rhythm gets tight I put truth in the pocket and I aim it right I keep receipts for the days they dismissed me Names in the margins of the plans that missed me Still I never let the cold make the vision small I was writing big dreams on a peeling wall With a calm in my chest and a spark in my speech Every lesson got a little more reach If the road gets rough, let it test my pace I don’t need a shortcut, I can earn my place [Refrain] Keep it moving, let the whole room rise Put the work in plain sight, no disguise When the beat comes back, we return that sound Feet stay planted while the hands go round Keep it moving, let the whole room rise Big heart, clear head, see the goal in sight From the first small step to the front-line ground We make our own way when the beat comes round [Verse 2] I study every angle, then I sharpen the phrase Make a map from the setbacks, make a mark from the maze There’s a difference between noise and a voice with weight Between showing up early and arriving too late I’ve seen quick talk vanish when the pressure got real So I measure every handshake, every promise I seal No costume in the cadence, no mask in the grin If I say I’m going forward, that’s the road I’m in Piano in the air like a question half-solved Bass under the floor like a problem dissolved Snare cuts clean and the whole crew nods We turn small opportunities into bigger odds I give credit to the elders who showed us the way And I leave a little room for the ones here today This is more than a moment, it’s a habit of heart Keep the circle full of builders doing their part [Refrain] Keep it moving, let the whole room rise Put the work in plain sight, no disguise When the beat comes back, we return that sound Feet stay planted while the hands go round Keep it moving, let the whole room rise Big heart, clear head, see the goal in sight From the first small step to the front-line ground We make our own way when the beat comes round [Bridge] No rush, no retreat, just a steady advance Give the doubt one look, then give the dream a chance If you came with a spark, let it travel around One voice becomes a chorus when it’s lifted off the ground [Verse 3] Now I’m back at the table with a stronger design Every setback got folded into one better line I don’t chase every signal, I protect what is true Keep a few good people and a clear point of view Let the cymbals stay simple, let the pocket stay deep Let the words do the lifting, let the promise keep When the curtain comes down, I’ll remember the climb And the hands that were steady when I needed more time So raise one for the workers with the dust on their shoes For the ones who kept building when they had less to lose For the quiet determination nobody can fake And the choice to stay ready for the turn you can make If tomorrow looks distant, put today in its place Take another measured step with a level gaze We don’t need permission, we don’t need a crown Just a beat, a clear aim, and a reason to sound [Final Refrain] Keep it moving, let the whole room rise Put the work in plain sight, no disguise When the beat comes back, we return that sound Feet stay planted while the hands go round Keep it moving, let the whole room rise Big heart, clear head, see the goal in sight From the first small step to the front-line ground We make our own way when the beat comes round [Outro] Keep it moving Let the whole room rise One step at a time That’s how we arrive
