Still Be Here

[Verse 1]

I didn’t believe that I could have anything else to share

I mean that I knew I could help somewhere

But I never felt as bare as when I felt your stare

That's what I get for thinking that I’m self-aware

We purposely search for what the purpose be

But the truth is I wasn’t even present in the currently

I coulda been a phone call for an emergency

From some hotel on Bourbon Street

I try to keep reminding my mind that what's mine

It’s just a asinine way to pass the time

Go, hold your kids 'fore they grow too big

Like a minute is forever when a memory’s a gift

Give this one to anyone

No box, no lines made of dots, no labels or locks

Gotta brave through the pain that we're shaking it off

Shave with the crane and aim for the top

[Hook]

I wanna give you the world like it was mine to share

I'll still be here, I’ll still be here

You'll always have my words, I try to speak ‘em clear

I'll still be here, I’ll still be here

And if that don’t work, I might be unprepared

But I’ll still be here, I’ll still be here

From the bad to the worst, my love’s sincere

I'ma still be here, I’ll still be

[Verse 2]

And I'll still be fascinated by the freedom of wings

I wanna know what you dream with no strings

Looking at shadows and the shapes on the ceiling

Make a little noise to communicate your feelings

I feel fortunate, I found fulfillment

I see my father in the faces of my children

I'm so vain that my heart's like a rooster

You make it hard to be afraid of the future

And when I hear you singin' along

I remember that I'll never be alone again

Judge me on what I depend upon

I want forever to spend with my fam’ and my friends

And I still be guilty

Of challenging the people that balance and build me

That’s why I’m speaking to you and when you reach it too

You can pick up the pieces and see what it do

[Hook]

I wanna give you the world like it was mine to share

I'll still be here, I’ll still be here

You'll always have my words, I try to speak ‘em clear

I'll still be here, I’ll still be here

And if that don’t work, I might be unprepared

But I’ll still be here, I’ll still be here

From the bad to the worst, my love’s sincere

I'ma still be here, I’ll still be

[Verse 3]

And I ain’t gonna front like I deserve your love

I'm still trying to learn to love

It's my long term ambition

But the burden burns so big you can’t miss it

It was worth the tears

I want my verses to persevere

I don't need a souvenir to prove that I was here

'Cause ever since you appeared, it’s been a happy new year

[Hook]

I'd give you the world like it was mine to share

I'll still be here, I’ll still be here

You'll always have my words, I try to speak ‘em clear

I'll still be here, I’ll still be here

And if that don’t work, I might be unprepared

But I’ll still be here, I’ll still be here

From the bad to the worst, my love’s sincere

I'ma still be here, I’ll still be
