Still Riding For You

**(Verse 1)** I still ride for you, even though you can't ride with me, Still keep your name alive in every single line I speak, They say the pain gets easier, but that shit ain't true, I just learned how to carry all this weight without you. I see your face in memories whenever I close my eyes, Still wonder if you're watching when I look up at the sky, I wish you could've seen the person I was tryna become, Wish I could've called you up and told you what I've done. You were more than just my brother, you were blood and you were home, Now I'm surrounded by a crowd but still feel so alone, Every victory feels empty when I can't call you and say, "Look at where we made it, we survived another day." And I know that you would tell me not to let the darkness win, So I keep fighting through the nights when the memories begin, I got scars that I conceal, got some pain I never show, But I carry you beside me everywhere I go. **(Hook)** I'm still riding for you, Even when the road gets rough, Still fighting for you, When this life gets hard as fuck. I'll keep shining for you, Till the day my time is through, They can take away your life, But they'll never take you from me. I'm still riding for you, Yeah, I'm still riding for you, Every breath and every bar, I'm still living life for you. **(Verse 2)** I put your name inside my music so the world can know you lived, Every lyric that I write is something that I wish I could've said, I don't need a fucking gravestone just to prove that you were here, You're alive inside the people who still love you through the tears. I remember all the moments that I wish I could replay, All the stupid little arguments I'd give anything to trade, For another conversation, for another stupid joke, For one more night of being brothers, just to hear your voice once more. Sometimes anger hits me harder than the sadness ever did, I be asking God some questions that I know won't ever quit, But I won't let all this suffering turn my heart into a cage, I'ma turn it into something that'll echo past my grave. For the people that we lost, I'ma carry every name, For the family that remains, I'ma stand inside the rain, And whenever I feel broken, whenever I feel used, I'll remember what you gave me and the strength I found in you. **(Hook)** I'm still riding for you, Even when the road gets rough, Still fighting for you, When this life gets hard as fuck. I'll keep shining for you, Till the day my time is through, They can take away your life, But they'll never take you from me. I'm still riding for you, Yeah, I'm still riding for you, Every breath and every bar, I'm still living life for you. **(Bridge)** If you can hear me, I hope you know I'm trying, Some days I'm barely standing, some days I'm still surviving, But I swear I'll never let the memory fade, I'll keep your name alive with every move I make. And when my daughter asks me why I say your name, I'll tell her you were family, and that love don't ever change, I'll tell her that the people that we lose still leave a light, And I'll carry yours forever through the darkest nights. **(Final Hook)** I'm still riding for you, Even when the road gets rough, Still fighting for you, When this life gets hard as fuck. I'll keep shining for you, Till the day my time is through, They can take away your life, But they'll never take you from me. I'm still riding for you, Yeah, I'm still riding for you, Every breath and every bar, I'm still living life for you. I'm still riding for you, Till the day I see you again, You ain't just my fucking brother, You're my forever, you're my friend.
