One Step Away

Here's a pretty quick rap I wrote instead of taking my Spanish final this morning. It has a rather quick beat that goes pretty much to the verse tune of "Touch the Sky" by Kanye West and Lupe Fiasco. Tell me what you think of it.

One Step Away

Everywhere we go

Through all the twists and turns

We’re one step away

From the glory and fame

We’re just one step away

From winning the game

Until, that is, you see

That it’s the game that deceives you

And you learn ultimately

That it’s the game that defeats you

And now you’re just one step away

From being taken under

You’re just one step away

From making a stupid blunder

That you will regret

But then you think for a moment

Clean your messed mind up

See the light in the tunnel

(The one way over there)

And realize that

We’re one step away

From having it all

We’re just one step away

From forgetting it all

[music begins to fade out]

Only one step away 

From climbing back up this cliff

Starting over

Taking the lead

And not looking back

On the other side

Where you’re only one step away

From taking a fall
