Prompt / Lyrics
[VERSE 1] I grew up learning how to bend, How to read a room before I spoke. I learned to carry things alone, And call it strength when it felt like hope. I wasn’t loud, I wasn’t seen, But I kept moving all the same. I didn’t know what I was becoming, I just knew I wouldn’t fade. [PRE-CHORUS] I didn’t win by being harder, I survived by staying kind. [CHORUS] I’m still standing, still breathing, After everything I faced. I’m still giving, still believing, Love is stronger than the pain. I didn’t break, I didn’t run, I became who I am. I’m still standing here, With an open heart, As a man. [VERSE 2] I carried doubt like it was truth, Wore silence like a second skin. I questioned every step I took, Still I walked straight through the wind. I didn’t always get it right, I stumbled more than I will say. But something in me chose to live, Even on the hardest days. [PRE-CHORUS 2] I wasn’t fearless, I was real, And that was more than enough. [CHORUS] I’m still standing, still breathing, After everything I faced. I’m still giving, still believing, Love is stronger than the pain. I didn’t break, I didn’t run, I became who I am. I’m still standing here, With an open heart, As a man. [BRIDGE – LOVE] Then love met me where I stood, Not to fix me, not to change. She saw the man behind the scars, And loved me just the same. She is strength in quiet ways, A steady fire, a gentle flame. And loving her taught me this: You don’t have to bleed to be brave. [VERSE 3 – SON] Now there’s a small hand holding mine, Trusting me with open eyes. And everything I once went through Stops right here, it doesn’t pass. If you dream beyond this place, If you chase a bigger sky, I won’t hold you back from life, Just know I’m here, right by your side. [PRE-CHORUS 3] Everything I missed before, I give away in love. [FINAL CHORUS – FULL] I’m still standing, still breathing, With a family I chose. I’m still giving, still believing, In the life we’re building slow. I didn’t lose, I didn’t fail, I grew into my name. I’m still standing here, With an open heart, And I wouldn’t change a thing. [OUTRO] I’m not who I was. I’m who I became. Still standing. Still giving.
