Still Here

the June 26 single — faith in the back of the room

Regina Monae in the studio

There’s a kind of struggle where you start to wonder if God forgot you. You keep going through life — the hard days stacking up — and it can feel like your prayers are going to a number that stopped answering.

But you keep showing up. You hold your faith even when everybody else seems to be testifying about their breakthrough and you’re still in the back, quiet, still trying. “Still Here” is about exactly that — feeling forgotten and showing up anyway, because faith isn’t always loud. Sometimes it’s just still here.

From the lyric sheet
Like maybe You forgot me Like maybe I’m too quiet Everybody else is testifyin’ And I’m in the back still tryin’…
✝ Isaiah 49:15-16 — "Can a mother forget the baby at her breast…? Though she may forget, I will not forget you. See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands."
✎ A note to journal on

When have you felt forgotten while everyone around you was celebrating? What does showing up look like for you on the days no one sees?

Have a story that needs a song?

Some stories are too deep for ordinary words. I help turn personal stories, testimonies, love stories, grief journeys, family memories, and life experiences into custom songs.
