    Story Behind the Song
    The music was begun about three years ago, but I abandoned it until recently when I felt inspired to complete it.
    The lyrics are about living through very hard times and the courage and conviction I gained afterward that I wasn't going to let anything stop me from doing what I wanted.

    Lyrics
    I didn't want to get the news,
    I just got it.
    It came to me no matter
    how much I fought it.
    Well it kicked its' way in.
    It knocked me down.
    It left me convulsing there
    on the ground
    'till I could've sworn
    it took the life from me.

    But I'm still here.
    I'm still breathing.
    I'm alive and I'm seething.
    I'm still breathing.

    I couldn't think of what to do,
    I just did it.
    I didn't want the world to know,
    so I hid it.
    Well, I wanted to find
    another way.
    I even went down on
    my knees to pray that
    God would would take my
    life away from me.

    But I'm still here.
    I'm still breathing.
    I'm alive and I'm seething.
    I'm still breathing.

    Then I ask myself,
    "Who the hell are you?"
    Then I ask myself,
    "Is that all you can do?"
    Whoa!

    I didn't guess my way around
    or feel through it,
    but now that I'm on common ground
    I'll just do it.
    Well, I've bottomed out
    and I'm hating life
    but I won't jump on
    the serrated knife
    'cause I know one thing
    cannot be taken from me.

    I'm still here.
    I'm still breathing.
    I'm alive and I'm seething.
    I'm still breathing.

    I'm still here.
    I'm still breathing.
    I'm alive and I'm seething.
    I'm still here.
    I'm still breathing.
    I'm alive, alive, alive
    and I'm seething.
    I'm still breathing.
    I'm still breathing.
    I'm still breathing.
