The Declaration/Outro - Ashanti

Never thought you’d be like, be like that ooh

But you know it all comes right back, comes right back ooh

Baby, I’m still here, I’m still here, I’m still here

Baby, I’m still here, I’m still here, ooh

Never thought you’d be like, be like that, ooh

But you know it all comes right back, comes right back, ooh

Baby, I’m still here, I’m still here, I’m still here

Baby, I’m still here, I’m still here ooh

I used to look into your eyes and think, that you were the one that was meant

for me

Everything that you would say, I believed it

You manipulated me, did it so creatively

Slowly took away from me, most of my integrity

Used to say that «I could be, everything and all you need»

Started doing little things back then I couldn’t see, but now

That the rain is gone, yes I’m still here

I’m still here, and I see you for who you are

And you’re not far from the devil, babe

So pack my heart, and run away, so far away, yeah

I’m still here, and I see you for who you are

And you’re not far from the devil, babe

So pack my heart, and run away, so far away, yeah

They used to tell me I was nothin', and couldn’t make it there

And so I made it, and they hated, 'cause I’m stayin' here

I put my trust into my faith everyday

With all the blood and sweat and tears

All the passion, all the years

Now with clouds and lovin' cheers

No more cryin', no more fears

Used to cry myself to sleep, thinkin' this could never be

And then I picked myself back up and stood on my two feet

And now that the rain is gone

I’m still here, and I see you for who you are

And you’re not far from the devil babe

So pack my heart, and run away, so far away, yeah

I’m still here, and I see you for who you are

And you’re not far from the devil babe

So pack my heart, and run away, so far away, yeah

Said I’m still here, said I’m still here

Said I’m still here, and I ain’t no where

Hey, yeah, hey, yeah baby

Ohh, ohhh

Hey, hey, hey, said I’m still here
