[Intro] Drums hit once. Brass answers back. Streetlights lean in like, “Yeah… that.” [Verse 1] We been through long nights, short sleep, Weight on the day like it won’t ease, Still you showed up, steady hands, Kept the wheels on the whole damn plan. I see the work you do in silence, The way you hold it down for real, I don’t say it enough, but I feel it— Every move, every deal. [Pre-Chorus] I don’t need you running ahead, Don’t need you burning at the edge, I’m learning how to lock in now, Feet on the ground, head out my head. [Chorus] We still standing, Right where the floor holds strong, No backing down, No playing gone. When it gets heavy, When it gets loud, We still standing— Right here, right now. [Verse 2] I know I’ve missed a moment or two, Let my mind outrun the room, But I’m dialing it back to presence, Learning how to stay in tune. No grand speeches, no escape, Just showing up clean and true, If the city keeps asking questions, I’m answering next to you. [Pre-Chorus] You don’t gotta carry the whole load, Don’t gotta prove what already shows, I’m here with both feet planted, Ready when the pressure rolls. [Chorus] We still standing, Side by side, no doubt, No folding in, No checking out. If the ground shakes, If the lights go out, We still standing— Right here, right now. [Bridge – call and response, brass punches] I won’t quit when it’s quiet. (Brass: punch-punch) I won’t fade when it’s rough. (Brass: punch) You show up—I match that. (Brass: long hold) That’s more than enough. [Break – second-line drum fill] (Snare rolls forward, brass laughs sharp, crowd energy implied.) [Final Chorus] We still standing, Through the sweat and sound, No one falling, No one drowned. Whatever hits us, Whatever we face, We still standing— Same time, same place. [Outro] Drums still walking. Brass still breathing. Street keeps moving. Us? Still standing.
