Still breathin

Hook (low, steady):
Police ask me how I do it, I just say I’m still breathin’
They ain’t like my fit, ain’t like my shit, I was fightin’ demons
They wasn’t outside when them nights got cold
Now I move low-key, heart half froze

I don’t laugh the same, I don’t trust the same
Seen love go left, seen friends change
I ain’t tryna act hard, I just carry pain
I’m still here… but I ain’t the same

⸻

Verse 1:
They ain’t like my fit — that’s cool
I was wearin’ weight under that hoodie
Eyes low, sleep gone
Mind dark, thoughts muddy

Half these dudes say they street
But they never felt loss
I done stood in rooms too quiet
After gettin’ that call

That type pain don’t trend
You just sit with it
Start movin’ different
Start seein’ who real with it

I don’t pop out much
I don’t talk too loud
Too many fake handshakes
Too many fake crowds

If I’m distant, it ain’t ego
It’s defense mode
When you seen shit fall apart
You don’t move bold

Verse 2:
This for the kid I never got to meet
Never saw him grow
Life don’t give warnings
It just let you know

One minute you jokin’
Next minute it’s quiet
Phone light in the dark
And your chest feel riot

That mess with your head
Make you think deeper
Hold your circle tighter
Cut off the sleepers

I ain’t glorifyin’ nothin’
Ain’t no win in that
When somebody gone young
It just leave a crack

So yeah I’m colder now
But I still got heart
I just guard it different
Play my part

⸻

Outro (soft):
Still breathin’…
Still dreamin’…
Just movin’ smarter
Since I seen it

Slower and some parts faster, rap, hip hop, trap, beats
