[Intro]
(Ah‑ah)
I was down… but I ain’t out
[Verse 1]
Fell in pieces, thought I lost the plot
Took the fall, but I learned the cost a lot
You said goodbye, left me cold in the dark
Now I’m realigning pain into art
Saw my demons in the mirror’s crack
Learned to fight for me when there’s no coming back
Now I’m back, but with different scars
Still standing tall with a broken heart
[Pre-Chorus]
You thought I’d fade, thought I’d bleed
But I turned pain into what I need
[Chorus]
Still standing when the world broke me
Still lighting when the dark tried to hold me
Still smiling in a skin too cracked
Still rising from the ashes of the past
Yeah, still standing—you won’t fold me
Still breathing, you can’t control me
Still my voice in the empty night
Still alive, and I’ll be alright
[Verse 2]
Used to chase shadows of memories
Now I chase days that I design, free
Used to hang regrets in my mind like art
Now I paint tomorrows with a brand new start
All these voices said I wouldn’t bounce
All their doubts just made my faith count
Now I’m flying past every prophecy
Left doubt in my smoke, now I’m breathing peace
[Pre-Chorus]
You thought I’d fade, thought I’d bleed
Now I glow, now I’m relief
[Chorus]
Still standing when the world broke me
Still lighting when the dark tried to hold me
Still smiling in a skin too cracked
Still rising from the ashes of the past
Yeah, still standing—you won’t fold me
Still breathing, you can’t control me
Still my voice in the empty night
Still alive, and I’ll be alright
[Bridge]
No more hiding in the shadows
I built wings out of broken shadows
If this life ain’t what you wanted me to be
Glad you didn’t—made me who I’m meant to be
[Final Chorus – full energy]
Still standing when the world broke me
Still lighting when the dark tried to hold me
Still smiling in a skin too cracked
Still rising from the ashes of the past
Still standing—this is my story
Still breathing—living in my glory
Still my voice in the empty night
Still alive, still me, still alright
[Outro – echo on “still alive” fade-out]
Still alive… yeah, still alive
Still standing… still standing
