[Intro – soft, spoken, almost like a journal]
Yeah…
It’s crazy how your mind can be your worst place to live in…
And nobody even knows…
⸻
[Verse 1 – slow, emotional flow]
I been fightin’ thoughts, feel like they don’t ever rest
Smile on my face but there’s pressure in my chest
Everybody think I’m good, I just play it off clean
But they don’t hear the war goin’ on behind the scenes
Late nights, wide awake, overthinkin’ every move
Tryna figure out my worth, tryna find a better view
Lookin’ in the mirror like “who am I today?”
Same body, same face, but my mind ain’t the same
⸻
[Pre-Hook – melodic shift]
And I try… yeah I try to escape it
But my thoughts, they replay and replace me
Feelin’ lost, like I’m stuck in the basement
No light, I’m just hopin’ I make it
⸻
[Hook – emotional, simple, repeatable]
I’m still here… even when it gets hard
Even when I feel lost in the dark
I been breakin’, but I’m playin’ my part
I’m still here… I’m still here
⸻
[Verse 2 – deeper/confessional]
Conversations with myself get intense
Half of me is givin’ up, half is jumpin’ the fence
Tryna hold it all together, but I’m losin’ my grip
Every time I start to heal, I be back in the pit
And it’s wild how nobody sees pain
When you hide it behind a smile every day
I been drownin’ in my head, no sound
Screamin’ out loud but it don’t come out
⸻
[Bridge – spoken, vulnerable pause]
If I told you everything…
Would you look at me different?
Or would you finally understand…
why I am the way I am?
⸻
[Hook – fuller, layered vocals]
I’m still here… even when it gets hard
Even when I feel lost in the dark
I been breakin’, but I’m playin’ my part
I’m still here… I’m still here
⸻
[Outro – quiet, reflective]
Yeah…
Still fightin’…
Still breathin’…
That’s gotta mean somethin’.
