Step Back Songtext
von DJ Slam

My mind is slipping
I need to take a step back
Reground myself

Yeah, I jumped in the new year with a whole new plan
Change up everything, throw some stuff in the garbage can
Yeah, clear room for the new stuff
Start driving the minivan
Get an internship
And hopefully skip
The stress of last year
Get my board position going
Throw in some social media work
My music is growing
Oh right, and my first documentary is done
But is my stress down to none
Nope, it′s still a ton


My mind is slipping
I'm doing too much
I can′t fix everything
That's a lesson I have to learn
There's so much to do to make the world better
But I′m just me
I can′t do it all
I need to take a step back
Before the slipping turns to a crack
Before it all turns black

Let's backtrack

Said yes and yes
And yes and yes
Till I was doing so much
We research and study
Body image, mental health, suicide, sexual abuse
Try to bring light on the topics
And there′s so much more
I've got friends that need help
I got fun things my siblings wanna do
But I need to remember self‑help
I can′t help everyone
Sometimes I just need to

Take a step back


My mind is slipping
I'm doing too much
I can′t fix everything
That's a lesson I have to learn
There's so much to do to make the world better
But I′m just me
I can′t do it all
I need to take a step back
Before the slipping turns to a crack
Before it all turns black

There's so much I wanna fix
I wish I had a bag of tricks
But I don′t
There's so many people struggling
That I wanna see be happy
There′s so many things I want to change
But I need to arrange to
Take a step back
Before the slipping turns to a crack
Before it all turns black

It's too much
I dropped the college
I cut my hours
I took a step back
It was hard
But it′s done
