[Verse 1] I know the turn where I gave in The quick excuse, the borrowed grin A pocket full of keys I lost A map redrawn at double cost You saw me leave the table bare Then come back honest, still right there [Pre-Chorus] I won’t call the wreckage fate I can name the choice and change the weight [Chorus] I’m still here, I’m still choosing Even with the old roads bruising I can make a life that’s mine One clear yes at a time I’m not clean, I’m not through But I know what I can do I’ll keep reaching for the day I can live the way I say [Verse 2] There’s a receipt in an old coat A half-said truth I couldn’t hold I hear that hungry little spark Selling shortcuts in the dark But you don’t have to drag me home I’ll take the long way on my own [Pre-Chorus] I won’t call the wreckage fate I can name the choice and change the weight [Chorus] I’m still here, I’m still choosing Even with the old roads bruising I can make a life that’s mine One clear yes at a time I’m not clean, I’m not through But I know what I can do I’ll keep reaching for the day I can live the way I say [Bridge] If I slip, I’ll tell the truth No grand disguise, no vanished proof I’ll set the glass down, face the door And ask what I am reaching for You don’t owe me a rescue line Just let me show you, one day at a time [Final Chorus] I’m still here, I’m still choosing Even with the old roads bruising I can make a life that’s mine One clear yes at a time I’m not clean, I’m not through But I know what I can do I’ll keep reaching for the day I can live the way I say [Outro] One clear yes at a time I can live the way I say
