Still standing

Verse 1

Everybody got opinions when you're down on your luck

Same people disappear when the road gets rough

Used to hear laughter when I talked about goals

Now they act surprised when I'm taking control

Had nights with no sleep

Dreams weighing on me

Looking at the ceiling asking what I'm gon' be

Every scar became a lesson

Every loss became a weapon

Aiming at the stars they said I'd never reach

Pre-Chorus

Walking through the shadows

Trying to find a spark

When nobody believed

I believed in me

Chorus

I'm still standing

After all the storms I faced

Still breathing

After every battle I embraced

They tried to break me

Tried to tell me I should quit

But every time I hit the ground

I learned how to rise again

I'm still standing

Yeah

I'm still standing

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Standing tall

Mm mm

Still standing

Verse 2

I remember every closed door

All the nos

People telling me I would never grow

Now the path that was full of pain

Is the same road putting respect on my name

Success isn't magic

Success isn't luck

Showing up every day when life sucks

Fighting for tomorrow when today hurts

Planting seeds even when nothing works

Pre-Chorus

Walking through the shadows

Trying to find a spark

When nobody believed

I believed in me

Chorus

I'm still standing

After all the storms I faced

Still breathing

After every battle I embraced

They tried to break me

Tried to tell me I should quit

But every time I hit the ground

I learned how to rise again

I'm still standing

Bridge

Maybe the mountain wasn't there to stop me

Maybe it was there to teach me how to climb

Maybe the struggle wasn't punishment

Preparation for the climb

Look at me now

Chorus

I'm still standing

Stronger than I've ever been

Still dreaming

Even when the odds were thin

The fire inside me

Burns brighter than before

Every time life closed a window

I kicked open a door

I'm still standing

Still fighting

Still climbing

Still rising
