“STILL HERE”
CHORUS:
--
They don’t live that long, that’s what they say,
Too much weight on a young heart anyway.
I’m still here, but I feel the stress,
Tryna outrun demons I can’t forget.
We were kids with dreams too big to hold,
Fast nights, cold pain, growing old too soon.
If I go tonight, remember my name,
I was fighting my mind every day.
VERSE 1:
Lost a couple friends to the dark side,
Too young, too real, wrong time.
Everybody smiles but they don’t know,
What it’s like when your head won’t slow.
Money comes fast, love comes fake,
Trust gets broken, hearts don’t break clean.
They say “you’re strong,” I say “maybe,”
But some nights still try to take me.
PRE-CHORUS:
Mama said pray, but my thoughts too loud,
I’m screaming inside, but I don’t make a sound.
Trying to live while I’m losing myself,
I’m asking for help, but I help myself.
CHORUS:
They don’t live that long, that’s what they say,
Too much weight on a young heart anyway.
I’m still here, but I feel the stress,
Tryna outrun demons I can’t forget.
We were kids with dreams too big to hold,
Fast nights, cold pain, growing old too soon.
If I go tonight, remember my name,
I was fighting my mind every day.
VERSE 2:
I don’t fear death, I fear living numb,
Watching life pass while I’m feeling done.
All these voices in my head still fight,
I just want peace when I close my eyes.
Legends fade, but the pain stays loud,
Pour one out for the ones not around.
I don’t wanna be next in line,
I just wanna make it past this time.
OUTRO:
If tomorrow comes, I’ll try again,
If it doesn’t, just know I tried my best.
Still here, still breathing somehow,
Still fighting demons right now.
