Echoes on the Asphalt

Lời bài hát

STILL HERE [Verse 1] There were nights I couldn't see the light, Just a battle in my head every night. Anxiety screaming, depression pulling me down, Trying to smile while I was drowning underground. I sat against that cold brick wall, Wondering if I mattered at all. Got to the point where I didn't wanna be here, Lost in the darkness, swallowed by fear. [Pre-Chorus] But somewhere underneath the pain, There was a voice saying, get up again. I didn't know where the road would lead, I just knew there was something I still needed. [Chorus] I'm still here, I'm still breathing, Still got a reason to keep believing. When my mind said, give up the fight, I found a little fire in the darkest night. Two wheels turning, rods by the lake, Finding pieces of myself I thought I'd break. Yeah, the road got rough, but I made it through, I'm still here — and I'm still me, too. [Verse 2 – Motocross] Throw my leg over, fire up the bike, Hear that engine roar and suddenly I'm alive. Throttle wide open, dirt flying behind, For a few damn minutes I can quiet my mind. Every jump, every corner, every scar, Reminds me I've already come this far. Helmet on, world fades away, Two wheels give me another reason to stay. [Chorus] I'm still here, I'm still breathing, Still got a reason to keep believing. When my mind said, give up the fight, I found a little fire in the darkest night. Two wheels turning, rods by the lake, Finding pieces of myself I thought I'd break. Yeah, the road got rough, but I made it through, I'm still here — and I'm still me, too. [Verse 3 – Fishing] Then there's the water when the world gets loud, Sitting by the bank away from the crowd. Rod in my hand, watching ripples roll, Waiting for that bite while I'm fixing my soul. And when that line pulls hard through the night, For a moment everything feels right. A carp in my arms, moon above my head, All those thoughts that chased me slowly fled. [Bridge – quiet, then building] I thought the darkness had won… I thought I had nothing left to give. But I found something worth fighting for, A reason to wake up and live. Maybe I'm not fixed, Maybe I never will be… But I've learned that broken doesn't mean There's nothing left of me. [Guitar Solo 🎸] Slow and emotional at first… then the drums kick in and the guitar tears into a huge solo. [Final Chorus – BIG] I'm still here, I'm still breathing, After everything, I'm still believing. When the darkness tried to take my light, I found my way back through the night. Two wheels turning, rods by the lake, Every little moment gives me one more day. I don't know what tomorrow's gonna do, But I've got reasons to make it through. [Outro] So here's to the nights I thought I'd lose, Here's to the battles I didn't choose. Here's to the engine, the water, the sky… Here's to the fact that I'm still alive. I'm still here. And that's enough for tonight. ❤️‍🩹
