Still Me

Lyrics

[Intro]

(soft hums, breathy)
BGV (whisper): mm… yeah…


[Verse 1]

You used to know my favorite silence
The way I breathe when I’m thinking too much
You said I was magic, said I was timeless
Guess you forgot what you were touching

I bent a little, tried to fit you
Cut my wings just to land where you stand
Then I woke up, looked in my mirror
I was never yours to understand


[Pre-Chorus] (strip beat slightly)

I don’t hate you, I just learned what I’m worth
I miss you quietly, I’m still putting me first

BGV (whisper, layered):
quietly… quietly…
me first… me first…


[Chorus / Hook] (THIS is the tightened loop)

You didn’t lose me
You lost the best thing
You lost my love when it came easy

I’m still me
Still gold
Still everything you couldn’t hold

BGV (soft echo):
still me… still me…
you couldn’t hold…


[Verse 2]

I gave my heart like it was endless
You held it careful, then let it slip
I made space for all your shadows
You said my light was too much to live in

Now I dance in my reflection
No apologies in my skin
I’m not lonely, I’m just selective
I don’t chase what won’t choose me again


[Pre-Chorus] (repeat)

I don’t hate you, I just learned what I’m worth
I miss you quietly, I’m still putting me first

BGV (whisper):
I still miss you…
but I’m choosing me…


[Chorus / Hook] (repeat)

You didn’t lose me
You lost the best thing
You lost my love when it came easy

I’m still me
Still gold
Still everything you couldn’t hold


[Bridge] (drop drums, dreamy)

Maybe one day you’ll hear my name
In a song that sounds like peace
Maybe you’ll wonder who I became
While I’m busy becoming me

No hard feelings, no revenge
Just lessons folded into grace
I was never too much for you
You just couldn’t meet me there

BGV (whisper, stretched):
meet me there…
there…


[Outro / Soft Chorus Loop]

I’m still me
Still whole
Still everything you couldn’t hold

BGV (fade whispers):
still me…
quietly…
