Still In It

[Verse 1]
Woke up wrong hoodie pencil on floor
Sketchbook open half a face then more
Bus ride blur headphones on low
Indiana sky moving real slow
Laugh snap send it to the chat
Ink on fingers I live like that
Heart loud brain says don’t go far
Still I draw who people are
[Pre-Chorus]
I trip on first draft lines
Erase redraw ten more times
Messy page but I don’t quit
Not perfect but I’m in it
[Chorus]
I’ll do it anyway even if it shakes out wrong
Even if the line don’t land in the song
Volleyball bruises knees still in it
That’s the point of trying I live in it
School bell ringing I’m half not there
Half in a sketch like I made that air
I’ll do it anyway even if I miss the beat
Still running still drawing still on my feet
[Verse 2]
Gym lights flicker ball in flight
Hands up late but I still might
Hit the floor then laugh it off
Coach yelling I don’t stop
Hallway noise like static rain
Lockers slam like broken frames
Someone calls I turn my head
Half a drawing not done yet
Indiana roads same old view
Still I keep adding something new
Pencil lines on notebook spine
Turning nothing into mine
[Pre-Chorus]
Delete redraw press send again
Messy start but I still win
If it breaks I don’t rewind
Just reshape it every time
[Chorus]
I’ll do it anyway even if it shakes out wrong
Even if the line don’t land in the song
Volleyball bruises knees still in it
That’s the point of trying I live in it
School bell ringing I’m half not there
Half in a sketch like I made that air
I’ll do it anyway even if I miss the beat
Still running still drawing still on my feet
[Bridge]
Messy lines but they still glow
That’s how I learn that’s how I grow
