I'm Still Good
Miley Cyrus · Hannah Montana Forever [2010]
Let it in now and then
That don't mean anything
I'm still good
I looked around me
How did I get here?
Not part of my plan
I ended up in a situation
Wasn't in my hands
I think about it
When I wanna give up
How to keep on going
How to keep my chin up
Somehow I know it
I'm not gonna give up
Never gonna give up
[Chorus]
So I might slip again,
Let it in now and then
That don't mean anything
I'm still good
Trying to be my best
When I fall in some mess
Pick myself up again
I'm still good
I'm still good,
I'm still good
When days are like that
And I can shake 'em
It's weighing on my mind
So I'm just saying
I'm only human
Life gets you down sometimes
I think about it
When I wanna give up
How to keep on going
How to keep my chin up
Somehow I know it
I'm not gonna give up
Never gonna give up
[Chorus]
So I might slip again,
Let it in now and then
That don't mean anything
I'm still good
Trying to be my best
When I fall in some mess
Pick myself up again
I'm still good
[Repeat chorus]
Life puts up a fight with me
But I can take on anything
I'm gonna make it real, this dream I believe in
I think about it
When I wanna give up
How to keep on going
How to keep my chin up
Somehow I know it
I'm not gonna give up
Never gonna give up
[Chorus]
So I might slip again,
Let it in now and then
That don't mean anything
I'm still good
Trying to be my best
When I fall in some mess
Pick myself up again
I'm still good
[Repeat chorus]
I'm still good
Pick myself up again
I'm still good
I'm still, I'm still good
