INTRO (spoken, calm, close) Listen to me. Life doesn’t get lighter. You just get stronger. And the fact you’re hearing this… Means you haven’t quit yet. ⸻ VERSE 1 (Rap – direct, honest) I know life feels like it’s always demanding Never asking if you can handle the landing Bills, stress, loss, pressure on repeat Like you barely get air before you’re back on your feet I know what it’s like to wake up already tired Like rest don’t rest and hope feels expired Like you’re holding everything together alone And nobody sees how close you are to being done But hear me clear—feeling heavy doesn’t mean you’re weak It means you’ve been strong longer than most can be You’re not failing ‘cause you’re struggling today You’re surviving in a world that doesn’t slow its pace ⸻ PRE-CHORUS (steady, grounding) You don’t need answers tonight You don’t need to fix it all You just need to stay upright And refuse to fall ⸻ CHORUS (Metal – powerful, supportive) 🔥 YOU’RE STILL HERE 🔥 AFTER EVERYTHING YOU’VE FACED 🔥 YOU’RE STILL STANDING 🔥 WITH THE WEIGHT YOU CARRIED EVERY DAY LIFE CAN HIT HARD LIFE CAN HIT FAIR BUT IT DIDN’T END YOU— 🔥 YOU’RE STILL HERE 🔥 ⸻ VERSE 2 (Rap – encouraging, firm) You don’t need to be fearless to move forward You just need to move forward scared You don’t need motivation every morning You need discipline when motivation’s not there Life isn’t kind, it isn’t just It doesn’t pause when things get rough But neither do you—you adapt You bend, you learn, you keep your back intact You’ve already survived things That once felt impossible to face So don’t let this moment convince you That you’ve suddenly lost your strength You’re allowed to hurt You’re allowed to rest Just don’t let pain tell you This is as good as it gets ⸻ BREAKDOWN (Metal – slow, crushing, reassuring) YOU—ARE—NOT—BROKEN YOU—ARE—TIRED YOU—HAVE—CARRIED MORE—THAN—YOUR—SHARE HOLD—ON DON’T—LET—GO ⸻ BUILD-UP (spoken, grounded) Life isn’t about winning every day. It’s about not letting the hard days decide who you are. If all you did today was survive— That counts. ⸻ FINAL CHORUS (full force, anthemic) 🔥 YOU’RE STILL HERE 🔥 AND THAT MEANS SOMETHING 🔥 YOU’RE STILL TRYING 🔥 EVEN WHEN IT’S NOTHING BUT PAIN THE WORLD CAN PRESS THE WORLD CAN WEAR BUT YOU’RE STILL STANDING— 🔥 YOU’RE STILL HERE 🔥 ⸻ OUTRO (quiet, sincere) If nobody’s told you this lately— I’m proud of you. Not for what you’ve achieved. But for what you didn’t let destroy you. Take a breath. Take another step. Life hasn’t beaten you. Not today.

“YOU’RE STILL HERE”
