I felt the weight I felt the fear

A thousand nights a million tears

But even in the darkest hour

I found a spark a quiet power

Every heartbeat said don't let go

A fire inside began to glow

I'm still standing I'm still here

Through the shadows

Through the years

Every step a brand-new start

A battle won a beating heart

They took my strength but not my fight

I rose again I found the light

A voice inside that wouldn't fade

A song of hope I had to play

Every heartbeat said hold on tight

Through the struggle came the light

I'm still standing I'm still here

Through the shadows

Through the years

Every step a brand-new start

A battle won a beating heart

And every breath is sweeter now

A second chance I won't allow

To slip away it's all so clear

I'm still standing I'm still here
