Still Here | An Imperial Guard Tribute

A song about the endless resilience of the Imperial Guard. This one took a lot of effort, and I got to learn some new techniques along the way. Hope you enjoy it! Lyrics: [Verse] No trees remain, no fields to tend. No walks along the river’s bend. No hearth of ours to warm the night. No home remains, but still we fight. Though now we wander far and wide, No land to claim beneath the sky. We stride ahead and hold her dear, ’Cause we’re still here. [Chorus] We’re still here though every root was torn away, Still here though green has long since turned to grey, Still here, with only honor left to claim. We’re still here, and Tanith lives within our name. [Verse] We stood our ground while skies were torn! Through raining fire, we faced the storm! They split apart the very ground! But still, they couldn’t put us down! The banners burned, the guns ran dry! We fought until the heavens cried! For all they tried, we persevere! And we’re still here! [Chorus ] We’re still here, though shattered stone was cast aside! Still here, and now there’s nowhere you can hide! We’re still here, with lasguns ready in our hands! We’re still here, and through it all, Cadia Stands! [Cello intro] [Verse] The act is second nature now, The lifted chin, the furrowed brow. My nostrils flare with tempered breath, My presence bears the threat of death. No tremor travels down my spine, No doubt permitted in my line. My bolter shines, and I strike fear, But I’m still here. [Chorus] I’m still here when darkness lays my conscience bare! Still here when frightened eyes return to stare! I’m still here beneath the cap and sash I bear! I’m still here, but by the Throne, I don’t know where! [Verse] A piece to cross the blasted hell! A piece to dodge the falling shell! A piece in craters where I laid! A piece where no retreat was made! A piece for bunkers breached and cleared! A piece for every swallowed fear! A piece in trenches far and near! But I’m still here! [Chorus] I’m still here though every field took more than blood! Still here when others perished in the mud! I’m still here with ghosts that march at my command! I’m still here but I just don’t understand! I'm still here! I'm still here... I'm still... here... Why... am I... still... here..?
