Still Got Me

[Verse 1] I packed my life in a paper bag, left behind the ghost I had. A bed of lies, a house of pain, I walked out in the pouring rain. Now I’m standing in a world so cold, trying to find my name in stone. They look right through, they don’t see, the fire that’s burning quietly. [Chorus] No job, no home, no easy way, but I’m still breathing every day. They can take what they want from me — I still got me. No crown, no gold, no sympathy, but I’m still fighting to be free. You can break what you can see — but I still got me. [Verse 2] I’ve knocked on doors that never turned, slept on dreams that slowly burned. People smile, but they don’t know, how hard it is to let pain go. I wear my scars like second skin, but every cut let sunlight in. And even when my heart feels small, I stand — I’ve learned to face it all. [Chorus] No job, no home, no easy way, but I’m still breathing every day. They can take what they want from me — I still got me. No crown, no gold, no sympathy, but I’m still fighting to be free. You can break what you can see — but I still got me. [Bridge – soft and rising] They said I’d never make it alone, but my soul found a place to call home. I don’t need walls to stand tall, I found my worth after the fall. [Final Chorus – full voice] No job, no home, no easy way, but I’m still shining through the gray. They can take what they want from me — I still got me. Yeah, I still got me… [Outro – soft organ and guitar] I still got… me.
