[Intro]
Yeah yeah yeah…
Metalsunny pon this one!
One step, two step… we dey go higher, oh…
Hmm hmm…

[Chorus]
I’m one step ahead (ahead!)
No matter the wahala, I go rise instead
Them try hold me down, but my spirit no bend
Na Jah dey guide me, till the very end
One step ahead (ahead!)
I dey move with the fire, steady break their net
No looking back, only forward I tread
Life na journey, and I’m one step ahead

[Verse 1]
Dem say I no go make am, dem dey doubt my plan
But see me now, I dey shine like sun
From nothing to something, omo na God’s hand
Every setback just dey make me strong
I no dey compete, I just dey complete
Every blessing wey I get e dey sweet
Enemies wan plot, but I don delete
My destiny lock, dem no fit cheat

[Chorus]
I’m one step ahead (ahead!)
No matter the wahala, I go rise instead
Them try hold me down, but my spirit no bend
Na Jah dey guide me, till the very end
One step ahead (ahead!)
I dey move with the fire, steady break their net
No looking back, only forward I tread
Life na journey, and I’m one step ahead

[Verse 2]
If you wan run the race, you go pay the price
Patience na key, hustle make it right
Even in the darkness, I dey find my light
Every single day I dey win the fight
Na small boy wey turn big man
Dreams wey I get dey too strong to jam
Grace dey follow me like say na my plan
Omo I dey move, no be here I stand

[Bridge]
Slow but steady, I go reach my goal
Nobody fit stop me, I dey in control
When dem dey crawl, I dey fly, I dey roll
Destiny dey burn inside my soul

[Chorus]
I’m one step ahead (ahead!)
No matter the wahala, I go rise instead
Them try hold me down, but my spirit no bend
Na Jah dey guide me, till the very end
One step ahead (ahead!)
I dey move with the fire, steady break their net
No looking back, only forward I tread
Life na journey, and I’m one step ahead

[Verse 3]
Na only grace carry me this far
From the ghetto to the stage, now I’m superstar
Every scar wey I get don turn to medal
I no dey stop, I dey push, na my style
Hustle no dey sleep, I dey grind everyday
Mama pray for me, blessings pave the way
Enemies go tire when they see me dey play
Cos I’m one step ahead, I no go delay

[Rap – Verse 4]

Yo!
One step, two step, steady on the go,
Enemies dey front but I dey run the show.
Started from the bottom, now my fire dey blow,
Metalsunny energy, everybody don know.
Life na chess, so I move like king,
Checkmate haters when they try that thing.
Grace on my head like crown I dey bring,
Forward ever, na the anthem we sing!

[Chorus]
I’m one step ahead (ahead!)
No matter the wahala, I go rise instead
Them try hold me down, but my spirit no bend
Na Jah dey guide me, till the very end
One step ahead (ahead!)
I dey move with the fire, steady break their net
No looking back, only forward I tread
Life na journey, and I’m one step ahead

[Outro]
Step by step, I dey climb, I dey grow
Metalsunny sound, everybody don know
No retreat, no surrender, na so
One step ahead, till I reach my goal…
