Jackie Venson One Step Forward
They say freedom is in the mind
Well we lose our freedom when we get too scared to fight
One step forward is another step farther behind
Hardly nothing can make me cry
But when I saw history repeat I wiped my eyes
One step forward is another step farther behind
You see I go out on the corner
And bare my soul
Play my guitar strings until my fingers swole
I don't make much money and they treat me mean
But I know that this creation keeps my heart bеating
We lose this music when wе fall for the dollar signs
One step forward is another step farther behind
[guitar solo]
You see I grab pen and paper
And bare my soul
Expose my tender heart for the world to know
It ain't about the money or the popularity
It's the healing and the love and the connectivity
We lose this music when we fall for the dollar signs
One step forward is another step farther behind
What I say?
One step forward is another step farther behind
And I'll keep playing til the sun goes down on my life
