I'm Still Here

lyrics

All of this running and racing I forgot
That I’ve got two feet
And I’m proud of where I’ve been
Bruised and I’m tired
Burned by the fire
But I’ve kept moving
All of this running and racing I forgot
That I’m still here

I’ve been so busy just asking and begging
When does the good start?
When will I arrive?
Wasting my time
Rushing through life
Too blind to see that I’m still alive
All of this running and racing I forgot
That I’m still here

Sometimes the best I can do is wake up
Open my eyes put a brave face on
Ignore the lies in my mind
That say I’m better off
Dead than alive
And in this war against Living
I’m proud of myself for not giving in

I’m still waking
I’m still crying
I’m still laughing
I’m still trying
I’m still holding
I’m still breathing
I’m still talking
I’m still screaming
I’m still giving
I’m still taking
I’m still bending
But I’m not breaking
Cause I’m still here
