Still breathing

[Intro]
Yeah…
Sometimes I don’t even recognize myself…
But I’m still here…
[Hook]
My heart still heavy, but the doctor keep me steady
Tryna hold it all together, but I’m barely ever ready
It’s a cold kinda comfort when my mind get too loud
So I numb it for a moment just to breathe through the cloud
I don’t wanna need it, I just hate how I feel
Every night another battle, tryna prove what is real
Smile on my face, but the hurt never left
I’m just tryna stay alive, tryna save what’s left…
[Verse 1]
They don’t see the darkness when I’m walkin’ in public
I laugh with my friends, but my spirit be sufferin’
Got a hole in my chest where the love used to sit
Now it’s pain in my ribs every time that I miss
I been overthinkin’, my thoughts on attack
Tryna run from the past, but it run right back
They said “be a man,” I said “I’m tryin’ my best”
But it’s hard when you fightin’ what’s inside your head
And I know it ain’t the answer, just a break from the hurt
Like a pause button pressed when I’m deep in the dirt
Temporary peace, but the cost too high
Still I reach when I’m low and I don’t know why…
[Bridge]
Maybe I’m just tired of feelin’ everything
Maybe I’m scared of what tomorrow bring
I don’t wanna fade, I don’t wanna fall
I just want a day where I feel alright…
[Hook]
My heart still heavy, but the doctor keep me steady
Tryna hold it all together, but I’m barely ever ready
It’s a cold kinda comfort when my mind get too loud
So I numb it for a moment just to breathe through the cloud
I don’t wanna need it, I just hate how I feel
Every night another battle, tryna prove what is real
Smile on my face, but the hurt never left
I’m just tryna stay alive, tryna save what’s left…
[Verse 2]
Heartbreak got me lookin’ in the mirror like “who that?”
Same eyes, different soul, yeah I knew that
Love turned to a lesson, trust turned to a scar
Now I drive through the night hopin’ I go far
People say “pray,” but my faith feel weak
I talk to the sky but it don’t always speak
Still I’m here, still breathin’, still fightin’ the wave
Tryna heal from the things I never could say
I don’t want applause, I just want relief
I don’t want attention, I just want peace
If you feel what I feel, then you know it’s rough
We all break sometimes, tryna act like we tough…
[Outro]
Yeah…
Still breathin’…
Still fightin’…
Still here…
