In ZE:A's "Step By Step," the lyrics are about being on a journey of self-discovery and personal growth. The verses describe the singer's solitary habits, such as watching movies, eating, and walking alone, but they also reflect on their mindset and how they long for someone to understand them. The chorus speaks to the desire to take steps toward moving forward, taking hold of the person they long for and wanting to learn everything about them. Lines like "One step, take your hand, two steps, I want to talk to you" and "I really love you" express the metaphorical journey the singer is taking towards a deeper connection with another person.
Overall, the song seems to be about the uncertainty of life and how, no matter how lonely we may feel, we are all taking steps forward towards a brighter future. Each verse's introspection reminds the listener that no one is truly alone, and sometimes it just takes that one person to make the journey worth it.
