I wrote this son for my adult son and daughter. I used Sumo for the vox and music but the lyrics are mine, word for word. Please take a listen. Thank you. https://makebestmusic.com/m/AFB3D567?pid=PIDgJvhS7BQH&source=makebestmusicI’m Still Here (An Ode to my Daughter and Son) Copyright 2026 OpenMikeMusic v1 Did I cross your mind today? Is life still moving fast? I know how time can slip away when you think it’s gonna last. Has it been that long? Oh how my little ones have grown. So proud of you and your family (Boo), I just wanted you to know… ch ...that I’m still here And I’m just fine. It’s the same ole, same ole, same ole lonely nights. But you know me, I’ll be alright. I just need to hear your voice from time to time. ‘cause I’m still here... ...and you’re still mine. v2 If I could do it over, I’d do it all again. I wouldn’t spend all that time with those demons in my head. I would have held you closer, Bo, let Jesus lead the way. And love you from a place I didn’t know until today. But I’m still here. And I’m just fine. It’s the same ole same regrets that keep me up at night. But you know me, I’ll be alright. It’s just good to know you’re safe and my “littles” fine. ‘Cause I’m still here… ...And you’re still mine. Br All you saw were remnants of a child so badly scarred, un-reconciled inside a broken man. I look back now, it shames me how I tried to hide my love, and shared with you my bleeding scars, instead. v3 Can you tell your Mama all I’ve said to you. I’m glad she found the peace I never could. Thank you for holding on as long as you did. But if it all goes bad, again I’ll be here for good. Ch ‘cause I’m still Here and I’m just fine. Not the same ole man still lookin’ for a fight. Will you know me? In a different light? It’s just good to hear you, both from time to time. ‘Cause I’m still here. And you’re still mine. Repeat x 2. avatar Mike Brown

Very sad, has to be hard realizing the consequences of your actions, when you didn't know any other way at the time.
My only nit is that the bridge might let the whole cat out of the bag all at once, instead of teasing it earlier.
Good track and vocal. Can't go wrong when it comes from the heart
