still standing here - mike dreams lyrics
(verse 1)
this here is feeling like my last will and testament
i’m no longer worried ‘bout
if they’ll be impressed with it
just know that they can’t mess with it
used to be stressing
‘cuz this message i was pressing
wasn’t making a connection
can i make a confession?
i’ve been through a collection
of stresses
that would leave average people
second guessing
on why they still around
carrying weight upon my
shoulders like i’m harnessing a boulder
with no room for my blessings
when wounds needed caressing
there was n0body around
‘cuz on the up and up
they just wanted to see me down
should’ve died, yet
somehow i defy death
the reaper calling
but i ain’t replied yet
(chorus)
you can look right in my eyes
just to see what’s about
they wanna see my demise
whether see me down and out
tried to take away my pride
those times that i should have died
but look and see
i’m alive
i survived
(ashley dubose)
‘cuz that didn’t take me out
that didn’t take me out
that didn’t take me out
i’m still standing here, my friend
it takes more to break me
(verse 2)
somebody told me
that life ain’t fair
and i swear i ain’t believe ‘em
‘til i sat right there
in that courtroom chair
staring at my brother’s k!ller
as the judge went and only gave ‘em
13 years
with the option of parole
are you kidding?
he k!lled him in cold blood
let his soul rot in prison
but at that very minute
god dove in my spirit
thou shall hold hatred
so just know, he’s forgiven
i channeled all that aggression
into flows that was written
to warm souls like a stove
in this cold world we live in
family members in prison
or struggling with addiction
a couple of ‘em is pitching
they just trying to make a living
they know i never judge ‘em
that’s my people and i love ‘em
wonder if they know
the devil’s tryna cuff ‘em
and take ‘em out the discussion
but as long as my heart is beating like percussion
i promise i’ll protect ’em from destruction
(chorus)
(bridge)
it’s been a long and winding road i’ve been traveling
a dark and murky, muddy mess i’ve been treading in
but believe, it’s got to k!ll me to stop me
i’m not stopping
i rise above the enemy; on angel wings, they carry me
oh, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
oh, oh
(chorus)
nope, that didn’t break me down
nope, that didn’t break me down
it takes more to break me down
i’m still standing here, my friend
