Still Breathing Grunge rock

[Intro] The winter air was cold and gray, A warning came that changed my way. I stood there staring at the truth, And suddenly I chose my life. [Verse 1] Since February, I've been fighting, One day at a time, one breath at night. For years I held that smoke like comfort, Never knowing what it took inside. Then came the words I never wanted, A diagnosis I could not ignore, Atherosclerosis in my body, And I knew I had to close that door. [Verse 2] The first few days felt like a battle, My hands were reaching for the past. The empty spaces, restless moments, Wondering if the pain would last. But every morning without smoking Became a victory of its own, And somewhere underneath the struggle, I started finding who I'd become. [Pre-Chorus] I won't let fear decide my future, I won't let yesterday take control. Every breath is a little stronger, Every step is saving my soul. [Chorus] Since February, I've been changing, Turning darkness into light. Leaving cigarettes and shadows For another chance at life. I've got miles to walk before me, I've got dreams I won't let go. Since February, I've been learning How strong a broken man can grow. [Verse 3] There are still moments when I remember The old familiar smoke and flame, But now I see it differently, It was never worth the price I paid. My body speaks, and now I listen, My heart deserves a fighting chance. I'm not just giving something up now, I'm taking back my life again. [Solo Play] Emotional electric guitar solo — beginning slowly and reflectively, building into a powerful, uplifting climax. [Bridge] I don't know how many roads are waiting, I don't know what tomorrow brings. But I know this life is worth the struggle, And every breath is worth everything. The past may knock upon my doorway, But I won't let it pull me through. I've come too far to turn around now, I've got a life I've got to choose. [Verse 4] I won't let fear decide my future, I won't let yesterday take control. Every breath is a little stronger, Every step is saving my soul. And when the nights feel long and heavy, I'll remember why I chose this road. One more day, one more heartbeat, One more chance to let myself grow. [Final Chorus] Since February, I've been changing, Turning darkness into light. Leaving cigarettes and shadows For another chance at life. I've got miles to walk before me, I've got dreams I won't let go. Since February, I've been learning How strong a broken man can grow. [Ending] And I'm still here, I'm still breathing, Still reaching for the morning sun. Since February, I've been fighting, And I know now— My life has just begun. [Outro] Since February... One breath at a time... One day at a time... I'm still walking... I'm still fighting... And I'm alive.
