Still in the Game

Yeah

They thought that would stop me

It didn't

They said slow it down, take a seat

Like this life ever came with a bench for me

I learned quick how to read the play

Adjusted my steps, still found my lane

Every day had a price attached

Still paid in full, never took it back

They see the grind, don't see the strain

But pressure built me, I stayed in shape

I didn't fold when the odds stacked

Didn't quit when the path got cracked

I recalculated, stayed intact

Stayed focused when my body attacked

This ain't luck, this is discipline

Every win come from showin' up again

They don't know what it took to remain

But here I am-still in the game

Still in the game, yeah I never sat down

Heartbeat strong, still holdin' my ground

They tried to label me, slow me, restrain

Still in the game-yeah I stayed

Still in the game, still in control

Mind on focus, heart on gold

Diabetes never benched my name

Still in the game... still in the game

I don't need sympathy, I need respect

I learned my body, I made the adjustments

Every challenge sharpened my sight

Made me smarter every single fight

I trained in silence, stayed prepared

So when it mattered, I was already there

They asked "how you still standin' tall?"

I didn't wait for permission-I answered the call

I don't run from the hard parts now

I make 'em part of the game plan, wow

Turned setbacks into film review

Studied my losses, then I improved

This ain't survival, this is success

Built through routine, faith, and finesse

I don't get sidelined by pain or fear

I adapt, I advance-I'm still here

Still in the game, yeah I never sat down

Heartbeat strong, still holdin' my ground

They tried to label me, slow me, restrain

Still in the game-yeah I stayed
