The Ladder (Interlude) ft. Grandma Mimi Lyrics

What I realized, and maybe I didn't use these words, that life is really like a ladder

And each time that I wanted to try something, take a risk, it would be another step

And I want you to know that in my life, there were steps down

And those challenges were hard, and painful

That I could then turn around and come back if it wasn't the right choice

The only way I could make it through the decades of my life

If I came to realize that I needed to live by choice and not by chance

That in order to make a better life, I would have to work hard on myself

And it had to do with living more by choice and not by chance

And I've adopted that

That's a step up the ladder

The mindfulness of that sets me free
