Dat Romeo’s on hit again
*Title: Still Building*
Woke up at 5, coffee cold, bills on the table
AI taking jobs, but I’m still able
Learning new code while the rent keeps climbing
Got a daughter’s smile that keeps me grinding
Boss says “automate”, screen says “replace”
But nobody automates the love in this place
I’m in the mirror talking to the man I’m becoming
One day at a time, one bruise, one winning
They say the world moved fast, left some of us behind
But I’m still building something with these two hands and this mind
I’m just a man trying to be better
For my family, for myself, through the bad weather
They throw stones, call it hate, call it weak
But I’m still standing, still speak
AI can take the work, but not my name
Heartbreak tried to break me, I’m still in the game
Still building, still building[Chorus]
Love got complicated, trust got tested
Found out loyalty was a thing they arrested
Not every story ends the way you prayed
But I won’t let one winter steal my May
I see the comments online, all that rage
Men this, men that, on every page
I put the phone down, pick up my son
Show him how a man takes pain and turns it to sun
So teach me the new tools, I’ll learn the new way
But don’t tell me my worth gets deleted today
If the world’s getting colder, I’ll be the fire
For the people in my house, I’ll go higher[Bridge]
I’m just a man trying to be better
For my family, for myself, through the bad weather
They throw stones, call it hate, call it weak
But I’m still standing, still speak
AI can take the work, but not my name
Heartbreak tried to break me, I’m still in the game
Still building, still building
Still building... for them, for me
One honest day at a time
That’s enough for me[Outro]
