Step by Step
Step by step
Is the road to success
We were made
To live for decades
To cross an ocean
Takes time and motion
What you now see
Is not where you will be
To grow a tree
Will take more than a week
To write a book
Takes more than a hook
To maintain a relation
Takes much dedication
To understand life
Takes years of strife
