Not Over Yet

Sunrise paints another day

The mirror shows the price I pay

But in my eyes, there's still a flame

A quiet fire that won't give way

I’ve tried the needles, tried the roots

Changed my plate, laced up my boots

I breathe the air like it’s my prayer

And still, the shadows linger there

But this fight is not over yet

Though my strength is soaked in sweat

Every scan, another blow

But I’ve got miles left to go

For the ones who hold my hand

For the dreams we still have planned

Even when the hope feels thin

I find a way to fight again

Some days I curse, some nights I cry

When silence echoes every “why”

But every heartbeat, every tear

Tells me my reason’s standing near

(Ohh) I see my daughter’s eyes

(Ohh) I feel my partner’s sighs

They give me more than any cure

A strength that’s deep, a love so pure

'Cause this fight is not over yet

Though the ground feels cold and wet

Every loss carves out my truth

But I still stand inside this proof

I may bend but I won’t break

Every breath’s a vow I make

Even when the odds are high

I raise my fists and look the sky

No, this fight is not over yet

Even drenched in deep regret

I will try, and I will crawl

Even if I have to fall

For the love I’m fighting for

For one moment, maybe more

I’m still here, I won’t forget

This story’s not finished yet

So let the night do what it will

My heart is brave, my soul is still
