[Intro]
One step at a time
No matter how long it takes
I will make the climb
Learn from the mistakes I've made

[Verse 1]
When times are lookin' tough
I will be lookin' up to you
I found a better life
That'll be the one that I choose

[Pre-Chorus]
I need answers
Nobody ever, nobody seems to know
Sticks and stones will never
Break these bones

[Chorus]
One step at a time
No matter how long it takes
I will make the climb
Learn from the mistakеs I've made

[Refrain]
And I'll prove it to you
Provе it to you, prove it to you
Prove it to you, prove it to you
Prove without a doubt
Give me the one chance, one chance
So I can, so I can prove to you
[Verse 2]
It's time to realize
See the world with open eyes, oh
And I will never stop
Even when I reach the top, oh-oh

[Pre-Chorus]
I need answers
Nobody ever, nobody seems to know (No one seems to know)
Sticks and stones will never
Break these bones

[Chorus]
One step at a time
No matter how long it takes
I will make the climb
Learn from the mistakes I've made

[Refrain]
And I'll prove it to you
Prove it to you, prove it to you
Prove it to you, prove it to you
Prove without a doubt
Give me the one chance, one chance
So I can, so I can prove to you
[Bridge]
I might bend, but I'm not gonna break no more
Might be tired, but I'm not 'bout to give up, no
I might bend, but I'm not gonna break no more
No sticks and no stones

[Bridge]
And I'll prove it to you
Prove it to you, prove it to you
Prove it to you, prove it to you
Prove without a doubt
Give me the one chance, that one chance
So I can, so I can prove to you
So I can prove to you

[Chorus]
No matter how long it takes
One step at a time
I will make the climb
Learn from the mistakes I've made

[Outro]
And I'll prove it to you
Prove it to you, prove it to you
Prove it to you, prove it to you
Prove without a doubt
Give me the one chance, one chance
So I can, so I can prove to you
So I can prove to you
So I can prove to you
