Still me

Verse 1 – Who I Am

My mind stay busy, always two steps deep,

ADHD thoughts never really sleep,

I learned how to live with the noise inside,

Turn overthinking into a place I hide.

Youngest of six, I watched more than spoke,

Picked up lessons without being told,

I don’t rush life, I just let it show,

I move real quiet but I feel it all though.

I been solid even when plans go thin,

When the ground feel shaky, I look within,

Life don’t ask if you ready or not,

It just keeps movin’ — ready or stopped.

⸻

Hook – Self Definition

I been me through the cracks and bends,

Through losses, gains, and question marks at the end,

People change, seasons end,

But I still stand how I did back then.

I don’t chase noise, I don’t beg for space,

I sit with truth, I don’t rush my pace,

Whatever leaves, whatever stays,

I’m still me at the end of the day.

⸻

Verse 2 – Pressure & Betrayal (Background, Not the Focus)

I seen tone change when the pressure rose,

Thursday felt fine, Friday felt cold,

Pulled in a room I wasn’t prepared to face,

Words in my chest but they stayed in place.

I don’t replay names, I replay signs,

Moments I froze, thoughts left behind,

That taught me more than anger could,

About who I trust — and when I should.

Work come and go, buildings close,

I learned real quick what matters most,

I don’t tie my worth to a role or pay,

I know who I am without all that.

⸻

Hook – Self Definition

I been me through the cracks and bends,

Through losses, gains, and question marks at the end,

People change, seasons end,

But I still stand how I did back then.

I don’t chase noise, I don’t beg for space,

I sit with truth, I don’t rush my pace,

Whatever leaves, whatever stays,

I’m still me at the end of the day.

Verse 3 – Loss & Gain (This Year)

This year took people I wasn’t ready to lose,

Left empty chairs and quieter rooms,

Grief don’t shout, it just sits with you,

Shows up random in things you do.

Some days heavy, some days numb,

Some days feel like I’m missin’ someone,

I carry them with me, I don’t let go,

Love don’t leave just ‘cause time move slow.

But life funny — while I lost a few,

I gained new friends who showed what’s true,

Fresh energy, different kind of light,

Proof new bonds form even in dark times.

⸻

Bridge – Balance

I don’t live stuck in what went wrong,

I don’t pretend that I’m always strong,

I let it hurt, then I let it pass,

That’s how I survive, that’s how I last.

⸻

Verse 4 – What Grounds Me

Five years deep with someone real,

That steady love help me heal,

Friends who stay when plans fall through,

That’s how I know what’s fake and true.

Late nights gamin’ just to reset,

Controller hum calm my head,

I don’t escape — I regroup my mind,

So I can show up better next time.

⸻

Outro – For You

This song ain’t answers, it’s proof I’m here,

Still breathin’, still movin’ through unclear,

I don’t know what’s next — and that’s okay,

I trust myself to find my way.

Still me — through loss and gain,

Through broken trust and growing pains,

If this

Still me — through loss and gain,

Through broken trust and growing pains,

If this year tried to test my core,

It just showed me who I am more.
