Still Here

Verse 1
I watched my mama fall apart,
Her tears would echo through the dark,
Thought love was something built on pain,
I swore I’d never feel the same.

But I found someone who wore a smile,
That hid the hurt behind the style,
I stayed too long, forgot my name,
Love shouldn’t feel like walking through flame.

Pre-Chorus
I lost myself trying to please,
Forgot that I deserved to breathe,

Chorus
But I’m still here, I made it through,
All the scars, they tell the truth,
I was broken, but I grew,
And I’m stronger than I ever knew.
You can take my heart, you can take my trust,
But you can’t take the fight out of us,
I’m living proof the dark turns clear —
I’m still here.

Verse 2
Two years gone, thought love would stay,
But it walked out, looked the other way,
Left me asking what was wrong with me,
Until I learned to set me free.

I started picking up my soul,
Stitch by stitch, I took control,
Now I see that I survived,
Every fall that tried to take my life.

Pre-Chorus
It hurt like hell, but now I see,
That pain became the roots of me.

Chorus
But I’m still here, I made it through,
All the scars, they tell the truth,
I was broken, but I grew,
And I’m stronger than I ever knew.
You can take my heart, you can take my trust,
But you can’t take the fight out of us,
I’m living proof the dark turns clear —
I’m still here.

Bridge
If you’re lost inside the night,
And you don’t think you’ll be alright,
Just hold on — the dawn will come,
You’re not the only broken one.

Chorus
’Cause we’re still here, we made it through,
All the pain that tried to undo,
Every dream they said we’d lose —
Look at us, we’re living proof.
You can take my heart, you can take my trust,
But you can’t take the fire in us,
We’re living proof the dark turns clear —
We’re still here.
