Still standing

I grew up dreaming life would be simple somehow,

But the road got rough and I’m still walking now.

I’ve worn the weight of choices, tears, and pain,

Fell down hard, then found the strength to rise again.

I’ve watched doors close right in front of me,

Prayed for answers no one else could see.

Every scar became another page,

Written in a heart that’s stronger with age.

I’ve been broken, I’ve been lost,

I’ve counted every single cost.

But every sunrise whispers, “Don’t give in…”

I’m still standing through the storm,

Learning I was stronger all along.

Every tear became a river,

Every battle made me a survivor.

They can say my story’s full of mistakes,

But they never felt the weight I’d take.

This isn’t where my journey ends—

I’m finding my way back again.

I’m a mama with a heart that never quits,

Even when the world says I should’ve given in.

Every prayer I send into the night,

Is hoping tomorrow finally feels right.

I’ve loved with everything inside my soul,

Sometimes giving more than I could hold.

I’ve had to let go, learn to heal,

And trust that time reveals what’s real.

One day my children will know my name,

Not for the chapters filled with pain,

But because I never stopped believing,

Even when my heart was barely beating.

The road ahead is still unknown,

But hope has finally found its home.

I may bend, but I won’t break—

There’s too much left for me to make.

I’m still standing through the storm,

Piece by piece, I’m being reborn.

Every scar is proof I’m healing,

Every sunrise brings a new beginning.

This life may never be perfect or fair,

But you’ll always find me fighting there.

My story isn’t written yet—

The best of me is coming next.

So if you hear this song someday,

Know I never walked away.

I kept believing through the darkest night…

And somehow… I found the light.
