Текст песни Thankful You're Still Here - Gabriel Teodros , Otieno Terry

I appreciate your patience if you still rocking with me
This was not for performance, this was all a part of therapy
Tears in my lyrics just so I could see with clarity
There's parts that I'm proud of, some parts that are embarrassing
I know this level of vulnerability's a rarity
Especially from men, I had to share parts that scared me
From my own life so the trauma won't impair me
Shakiah says it all the time, build with sincerity
So many men I know are numb, to the point of loving none
You try to have a conversation with 'em and it's done
I wonder if it's trauma that they never faced, bottled up
And we should worry 'bout our strong friends, call em up
'Cuz you never know the struggles that they never show
None of us should ever have to face life alone
And I love my folks more than I could ever show 'em
Whatever you going through, don't give up for no one

Step by step
We stumble
There's pitfalls
We get there
Breath by breath
I'm thankful you're still here

Step by step
We stumble
There's pitfalls
We get there
Breath by breath
I'm thankful you're still here

I wake up, take a shower, brush my teeth
Put some clothes on, and then I hit the streets
Go out to get coffee, no it's not that deep
But my morning ritual means more than caffeine
It means I'm getting out no matter how I feel
'Cuz without connection I don't know how we heal
And I'm an introvert, so I gotta work for real
To not isolate myself and it's still one day at a time
I'm climbing over this hill
Take the pieces of my heart to see what we can build
I hope to never be the same, there's more to be revealed
'Cuz life is a story of glorious defeat
Beautiful mistakes and the company we keep
Balance of alone time, and one third sleep
Our dreams and our histories often repeat
There's a war going on with anybody you meet
So try to be more sweet

Step by step
We stumble
There's pitfalls
We get there
Breath by breath
I'm thankful you're still here

Step by step
We stumble
There's pitfalls
We get there
Breath by breath
I'm thankful you're still here
