Verse 1 Woke up with a breath in my chest, that’s a gift, ain’t nothin’ I earned, but I’m movin’ in it, sunlight hit different when I opened my lids, I ain’t takin’ one moment for granted again. Used to wake up heavy, used to drag through the day, used to feel like life kept slippin’ away, now I step with a joy I can’t explain, and I know where it comes from, I don’t play with that. I’m not walkin’ the same, I’m light on my feet, not because everything perfect around me, but I know I got peace that’s deeper than me, and it don’t disappear when the pressure increase. That’s a different type energy fillin’ my soul, not hype for a moment, not somethin’ I hold based on feelin’s alone—it’s steady and bold, and it shows in the way that I move on the road. I don’t gotta fake it, I don’t gotta pretend, I don’t gotta prove nothin’ just to fit in, I’ve been lifted from places I used to be in, and I know it ain’t me that created this shift. So I smile a little wider, I breathe a little deeper, I don’t carry that weight like I used to either, I’ve been given a life that I didn’t deserve, and I’m livin’ in gratitude, that’s what I learned. Every step got a rhythm, every move got a bounce, not performin’ for people, I’m just thankful right now, if you see me light up, it ain’t for a crowd, it’s ‘cause I know who held me when I was down. And I’m not goin’ back to the place I was in, where I questioned my worth, where I carried that sin, I’ve been covered in mercy again and again, and I’m walkin’ in joy I can’t keep bottled in. Hook I got overflow in my step, I can’t hold it in, I got joy in my chest, I ain’t closin’ it, I been changed from the inside, I’m showin’ it, I just thank God every day I’m still growin’ in. Through God the Father, I’m standin’ in light, through Jesus my Savior, I’m made new in life, through the Spirit that moves, I’m alive inside, I got overflow in my step, I can’t hide it. Verse 2 I remember them days I was stuck in my ways, didn’t see what I see now, I was lost in a haze, tried to fill every void with somethin’ to chase, but it never would last, it would fade in my face. Now I look at my life and I see how You moved, every moment I doubted, You still carried me through, every time I was blind, You was showin’ the truth, I just didn’t recognize what I had in You. Now I see it all clear, I don’t question the source, I don’t think it’s coincidence, I know it’s the Lord, I don’t chalk it to luck, I don’t call it “of course,” I give credit where it’s due—I’ve been saved, not restored by my own understanding or what I could do, but by grace I was given and led into truth, and I’m never forgettin’ the way that You proved You were there even when I didn’t know You. Through Jesus Christ, I was pulled from that place, not by effort or grind, not by runnin’ a race, but by love that was given I couldn’t replace, and it changed how I live every step that I take. Through the Spirit I feel when I’m startin’ to drift, He correct me with peace, not with pressure or guilt, He reminds me again what I’ve already been given, so I stay in alignment and move how I’m built. And God the Father, You steady my ground, when I feel like I’m slippin’, You holdin’ me down, You don’t leave when I struggle, You don’t turn around, You stay right there with me, I’m safe in that now. That’s why I praise different, that’s why I move free, not performin’ a song, this is real in me, this is joy that was planted and now I can see it was always Your hand that was leadin’ me. Hook I got overflow in my step, I can’t hold it in, I got joy in my chest, I ain’t closin’ it, I been changed from the inside, I’m showin’ it, I just thank God every day I’m still growin’ in. Through God the Father, I’m standin’ in light, through Jesus my Savior, I’m made new in life, through the Spirit that moves, I’m alive inside, I got overflow in my step, I can’t hide it.
