[Verse 1]
Sleep deprivation got me at my heels
This year taught me how it feels to be lost and ambitious
I've been on a mission, I won't stop till I'm done
I toss and turn almost every night
I pray to God I'm doing right, by all my family's wishes
Lord knows I miss them, their love outshines the sun

[Chorus]
So when I break down, I list off the reasons
I'm here and I'm still breathing, oh, I'm hanging on
Try to break ground and wait for tomorrow
I'll find the way through the sorrow
One day at a time, oh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
I see the world outside my door
Constant reminder, there's so much more than what I'm seeing
That thought is freeing but shakes me to the core
Settle down, settle down, get back
It's bad when it hits me in my heart like that
I know I'm exactly where I need to be
Zoom out for some clarity

[Chorus]
So when I break down, I list off the reasons
I'm here and I'm still breathing, oh, I'm hanging on
Try to break ground and wait for tomorrow
I'll find the way through the sorrow
One day at a time
One day at a time
One day at a time, oh-ooh-ooh
