🎵 **Track Title: Still Standing**

**(Verse 1 – "Left With the Silence")**
I never got a choice in your goodbye,
You checked out — no note, just a sky
Too empty for the words I never heard from you.
Dad… what was I supposed to do?
You left a war in my chest.
And all they say is “he’s at rest.”
But I’m not.
I’ve been bleeding questions since the day you dropped the plot.
How do you leave your son with all your pain
And not even try to explain?
I wasn’t enough? Or was life too rough?
I would've carried it — even if it crushed me up.
I fought for every scrap of love
While my brothers got it like rain from above.
Me? I was drought.
Had to scream just to get noticed, shut down when I’d shout.
Mom never saw the bruises on my soul.
She was too busy patching theirs whole.
I was the loud one — “too much to fix.”
Maybe if you held me once, I wouldn’t be mixed
Between hate and ache,
Between silence and breaks,
Between missing a dad
And wishing you stayed away.
I’m angry.
Yeah, I said it.
But under the rage, there's a kid still begging for credit.
Still waiting for the “I love you” you never said.
Still wondering why you chose death instead.
But I won’t let this be my end.
I’ll carry your name — but I’ll make it bend.
I’m more than the mess you left behind.
I’m the voice you silenced — now screaming in every line.

**(Hook – "Still Standing")**
I came from the silence, came from the screams,
Built my life from broken dreams.
They left me alone in the middle of war,
But I’m still standing — even when I’m torn.
Each scar’s got a story they’ll never read,
I bled for love they just gave for free.
I ain’t perfect — but I’m still real,
I ride with pain that they’ll never feel.
---
**(Verse 2 – "Built My Own Way")**
I’ve been grinding — hands to the bone,
Calloused palms, broken ribs, all alone.
Work became my drug, my escape,
Just to forget he drank himself into that fate.
We moved towns — thought we’d outrun the past,
But grief moves with you, it don’t move fast.
Mom hit the bottle like he used to do,
Bar lights in her eyes, guess I lost her too.
Had to pick her up from the bar some nights,
Dragging her home under neon lights.
The same poison that killed him ran in her veins,
And I was the one catching both their pain.
My dad?
He wasn’t just gone — he was gone before the grave.
An empty chair, a slurred name,
A man drowning while I tried to stay brave.
I chose the grind to block out the noise,
Became a builder of silence, not a broken boy.
But no matter how hard I push, how deep I bleed,
They still treat me like the black sheep — like I’m less, like I’m greed.
Always the outsider at the table,
Eating scraps of love, barely stable.
I know they care… maybe a little.
But some support wouldn’t feel so brittle.
Yeah, I’m an adrenaline junkie —
Speed is my therapist, danger is comfy.
Racing down hills, tires screaming at death,
Only time I feel free is chasing my breath.
They say I’m reckless — nah, I’m alive.
It’s
