about

Originally recorded as part of the album "Happily Ever Now" during lockdown in 2020, "I'm Still Here" stands out as one of the shining gems of this outstanding piece of work.
It quickly caught the attention of the UK Soul scene and instantly acquired rare-groove status among soul aficionados.
The hauntingly dreamy track caught the ears of Gilles Peterson, Craig Charles, Patrick Forge and many more DJs through out the UK.

lyrics

The clouds above you are so dark and cold
But I will blow them all away
The shadows below you follow in your steps
But I will shine a light

So please, don't you fret my child
I'm standing here, right by your side
Don't you cry, for tears should not be wasted
On what never can be undone
I'm still here, I'm still here, I'm still here

The pain you chained and locked inside your heart
But I will carry the key
Dragging bags so packed full of the past
But I will carry them all

So please don't you fret my child
I'm standing here right by your side
Don't you cry, for tears should not be wasted
On what never can be undone
I'm still here, I'm still here, I'm still here

When your dreams won't start
I'll be there
When it seems too hard
I'll be there
Even through the darkest times
I'm always here
When you need me, just call

So please, don't you fret my child
I'm standing here, right by your side
Don't you cry, for tears should not be wasted
On what never can be undone
I'm still here, I'm still here, I'm still here
I'm still here, I'm still here, I'm still here
