step back, realize
  i've not gone anywhere
  but back and forth again
  and i miss you my friend
  the one who stands up for me
  and is a better version of me
  is missing and
  i realized
    my motivations cry at the thought of
  confrontation
  i am coming up with new ways everyday
  to stay right where i am
    first step, realize
  if i pretend that i am
  who i want to be
  it might rub off on me
  the one who stands up for me
  and is a better version of me
  is missing and
  i realized
    my motivations thrive on the thought
  of creation
  i am coming up with new ways every day
  once i read through what you say
  i wont have to stay
  right where i am
      once i read through what you say
  i wont have to stay
  right where i am
    step back. realize
  that your example it will turn out all right
  step up just in time
  to take the place of all the heroes in your mind
  you're the only critic worth listening to
  you've got to step back, step up, step up
  just in time
