Left home with empty pockets
Told them I'd be back
They laughed and said "good luck kid"
But I never lost track
Every night I worked till dawn
Every muscle torn
I'm still here
After all the tears
I'm still here
Conquering my fears
Mama thought I'd fail
Papa turned his back
Now they see the blood and sweat
That put me on this track
I did this for me
Not for anyone
I'm still here
After all the tears
I'm still here
Conquering my fears
I'm still here
After all these years
I'm still here
Drying all my tears
I'm still here...
Still here...
