Still Here Somehow

I’ve been thinking about the nights

I should’ve disappeared

Moments hanging by a thread

But I’m still standing here

Running fast with a reckless heart

Lighting matches in the dark

Burning bridges just to feel

Something honest, something real

I said I had it all controlled

Truth is I was breaking slow

One more step, one wrong move

One more thing I had to prove

Looking back it’s crystal clear

I was closer than I knew to fear

I thought it was luck

I thought I was strong

But something carried me along

Have you ever looked back at your past

Seen every moment that could’ve been your last

Every breath that fills your lungs tonight

Feels like a borrowed second chance at life

Through every fall, every dive

Somehow you’re still alive

When you trace the lines you walked through

You start to see who carried you

Flashing lights and shattered glass

Prayers I didn’t think would last

Voices saying “He won’t make it”

But something said “I’ll take it”

There were doors that should’ve closed

Fires that should’ve left me smoke

Hearts that broke and healed again

Strength I didn’t know was mine back then

Now I see what I couldn’t see

Grace was writing over me

When I said “I’m fine”

But I was barely breathing

Love was there, unseen but leading

Have you ever looked back at your past

Seen every moment that could’ve been your last

Every breath that fills your lungs tonight

Feels like a borrowed second chance at life

Through every fall, every dive

Somehow you’re still alive

When you trace the lines you walked through

You start to see who carried you

Not by chance, not by fate

Not because I earned my place

Through the wreckage and the pain

There was shelter in the rain

All the times I should’ve gone

There was mercy holding on

So when you look back at your past

At every shadow that you outlast

Every heartbeat testifies

You were held through all the nights

Through every storm you survived

There was a hand over your life

Now I know the reason why

I’m still here… I’m still alive.
