[Verse 1]
Wake up, same time, same old song
Boots on the floor before the light comes on
Marchin’ to a beat that keeps me sane
If I don’t stick to it, I’ll lose my way
She don’t see the storm behind my eyes
The way my thoughts tangle up and fly
She works nights while I work days
We pass like strangers some damn days
---
[Chorus]
Still tryin’, holdin’ the line
Fightin’ these demons in my mind
I forget some things, but I never forget
Why I bleed, why I sweat
I got flaws I can’t disguise
But I love ‘em more than life — I still try
---
[Verse 2]
Two boys sleepin’ in their beds
While I’m stuck wrestlin’ in my head
I lose my keys, forget the date
But I show up strong, no time to break
She says, “Why can’t you just slow down?”
Wish I could, but my brain don’t know how
She means well, and Lord, she tries
But I see the hurt behind her eyes
---
[Chorus]
Still tryin’, holdin’ the line
Fightin’ these demons in my mind
I forget some things, but I never forget
Why I bleed, why I sweat
I got flaws I can’t disguise
But I love ‘em more than life — I still try
---
[Bridge – soft, stripped down]
ADHD don’t come with grace
But I fight like hell to keep my place
I ain’t perfect, never been
But I’ll show up again, and again
---
[Final Chorus – big and emotional]
Still tryin’, every single mile
Still ridin’, for my woman and child
She don’t always get what’s goin’ on
But her love’s the light that keeps me strong
I might stumble, I might cry
But I never say goodbye — I still try
Yeah… I still try
