Still Breathin

There’s a quiet in the mornin’ now
That I never used to hear
Used to wake up fightin’ shadows
Now I just sit with ‘em here
There’s a weight I carry different
Ain’t as heavy as before
But it’s always in the back of me
Like boots outside the door
I ain’t fixed, I ain’t flawless
Got my scars and my reasons
Some nights still get lonely
But I wake up still breathin’
Yeah I bent, I damn near broke
Walked that line for a season
But I’m standin’ here today
And I’m still breathin’
I still think about those dark nights
More than I’d like to admit
How close I came to losin’
Everything I’m standin’ with
But there’s a fire in my chest now
Didn’t know I had before
And it burns just enough
To keep me movin’ forward
I ain’t fixed, I ain’t flawless
Got my scars and my reasons
Some nights still get lonely
But I wake up still breathin’
Yeah I bent, I damn near broke
Walked that line for a season
But I’m standin’ here today
And I’m still breathin’
If you’re out there feelin’ lost
Like the night won’t let you go
I ain’t got all the answers
But I swear I know that road
And if all you do is make it
Through another day’s fight
That’s enough to call it winnin’
That’s enough to call it life
I ain’t fixed, I ain’t flawless
Got my scars and my reasons
Some nights still get lonely
But I wake up still breathin’
Yeah I bent, I damn near broke
Walked that line for a season
But I’m standin’ here today
And I’m still breathin’
Yeah I’m standin’ here today…
Still breathin’
