Still Here by Dead Air Syndicate

Still Here

[Intro]
Yeah…
I made it through the nights they said I wouldn’t
Still breathin’, still grindin’, still here

[Verse 1]
Came up from the struggle, dirt on my shoes
Saw homies fall fast, life givin’ no clues
Block full of ghosts, echoes of the lost
Countin’ my blessings, but wonderin’ the cost
Mama prayed daily, tears in her eyes
Hustlin’ just to survive, dodgin’ the lies
Every bullet missed me, every corner tested me
Still here, heart beatin’, mind never restin’ me

[Hook]
Still here, can’t believe I made it through
Life tried to break me, but I never knew
How strong I was, how sharp I’d steer
Through the storm and the pain, yeah… I’m still here
Still here, yeah, survivors’ tears
Grateful for the nights, fightin’ off my fears

[Verse 2]
Friends gone, names etched in my mind
Some caught up in the game, some left behind
Every day’s a gift, even with the scars
Learnin’ from the past, reachin’ for the stars
Street taught me lessons, pain’s the teacher
But I flipped the script, became my own preacher
Every loss a shadow, every win a spark
Still here in the dark, survivin’ the mark

[Bridge]
Moon watchin’ over, keepin’ my secrets
Lessons of the streets, pain that won’t forget
Every step I take, every breath I claim
I honor the fallen, still survivin’ the game

[Verse 3]
I hustle for the ones who can’t walk no more
For the dreams they had, for the doors they tore
Every rhyme, every line, is a tribute I spit
To the memories, the losses, the life that won’t quit
I see the skyline, promise to persevere
Grateful, blessed, humbled… yeah, I’m still here
Life threw punches, tried to disappear
But I rose, I grind, I’m still here

[Hook/Outro]
Still here, can’t believe I made it through
Life tried to break me, but I never knew
How strong I was, how sharp I’d steer
Through the storm and the pain, yeah… I’m still here
Still here, yeah, survivors’ tears
Grateful for the nights, fightin’ off my fears
