We taking giant steps that pound like the heart inside a lion's chest
make peace with self and stop trying to defy the rest
who's next to spread their wings and fly the nest
there's infinite ways to perceive, I choose to be inspired by the best

[scratch section - giant steps]

These feet operate at the proper rate
and stop to wait for nothing
so it all depends on polished lens
to propagate that function
wooden box with a sturdy lid
twine bow-tie tied once to give
velvet liner with a classic stitch
yo, reach deep down to scratch the itch
and passing this
like the facts that twist around the clock
I watch the pendulum swing
and I hold my breath each time it stops
I’m talking about potential
talking dropping nonessential baggage
talking about finding out
just how strong the cage is.

a hop, skip, and a jump away
finding a way to confront the day
work is play when you love what you do
let’s just say… ahh
let’s just say… deja vu
climb above to get a better view
sel-ec-tive
per-spec-tive
take a long look
try not to get off on the wrong…
best foot forward, work for mine
give me your word and I’ll walk the line
big shoes to fill, right? (right)
on a very large hillside (side)
the incline is steep - but
when you get to the top you can fall...

Plant toes on plateaus
(When you get to the top you can fall)
Truth to power from the back rows
(When you get to the top you can fall)
Don’t get caught in the cash flows
(When you get to the top you can fall)
Keep your head up and stand tall so
(When you get to the top you can fall, asleep)

Got big dreams, hope they come to fruition
a life of victories, to live it up is the mission
although sometimes...
we have to face the adversity in our lifelines
you have to pay the admission, by all means
time to start the ignition to pave the ways of tradition
improve the we ways that we live in
and pray for the children, so they can be buildin'
a strong foundation to take giant steps from

Ain't no half steppin'
It's a slippery slope, long way to the bottom
Ain't no half steppin'
Take it all in stride, more to come on the horizon

[scratch section - giant steps, step up]

Yo, the light shines from the sun
The light shines on you sun, the light shines
Yo, the light shines on the moon
The light shines from you moon, the light shines
Yo, the light shines from the sun
The light shines on you sun, the light shines
Yo, the light shines on the moon
The light shines from you moon, the light shines

You can’t take giant steps
unless you do what Simon says
that’s what they want you to believe
but what do you want to achieve?

I wanna take giant steps
and climb above the highest mess
to get some relief a better view of what's beneath
then rest easy knowing what's coming
so I can pick my battles wise
and minimize unnecessary conundrums
where we running?

It's time to step up

Ain't no half steppin'
