so still
’ve been up and out on this mountain top
The climbs been rough but i’m hanging on somehow
I hear the roar of the thunder far away
Frozen with fear my grip starts to slip away
But i close my ears and drown it out
I’m still breathing
I’m still fighting
I’m still holding on to every ledge i see
Not looking down on those memories
This is my life
It’ll always hold strife
This is my knife
I’ll hack away at the thorns
I’m still breathing
I’m still climbing
I’v e stumbled over rocks and crevices
But i stood up
My scars are the evidence
I’m still breathing
In and out
Up and down
This mountain is my future
And i dont plan on losing to it
All the thoughts in my head rock my shoulders
Build on my back heavy as boulders
Frozen with fear my grips starts to slip away
But not today
I’m still breathing
I’m still fighting
I’m still holding on to every ledge i see
Not looking down on those memories
This is my life
It’ll always hold strife
This is my knife
I’ll hack away at the thorns
I’m still breathing
I’m still climbing
I can’t see the top
Every place in my body tells me to stop
But that’s not an option
The fog is thickening
I wanna fall but i’ve already come so far
If i’m still breathing
I’ll still be climbing
A little less doubt and a little more diligence
This is all i have
I’d better make the best of it
I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m still
I’m still
I’m still
I’m still breathing
I’m still fighting
I’m still holding on to every ledge i see
Not looking down on those memories
This is my life
It’ll always hold strife
This is my knife
I’ll hack away at the thorns
This is not the end
Just another chapter to begin
I’m writing my life story
Theres no time no time to stop and feel sorry
I’m still breathing
I’m still climbing
I’m still
So still
