Up before the sun, feet cold on the floor, Same old fight, I lock the same old door, Nobody clocks it, nobody keeps the score, I just show up more, I just show up more. Boss don't see me, girl don't see me, World keep spinning like it don't need me, I still pray quiet, I still stay steady, I still hold the line when the whole block ready to fall. No lights on me, no crowd, no sound, Just me and God in the dark, holding ground, But something in my chest won't let me down, I feel it building up, I feel it building now. Nobody saw it, but it still counts, Every quiet win, every hard-won round, I don't need the noise, I don't need the crowd, God got a book and my name's written down. Nobody saw it, but it still counts, Small steps stack up, small steps turn to mountains, I'm still here, still true, still found, Nobody saw it, but it still counts. They laugh at the grind, they laugh at the prayer, Say a man like me won't get nowhere, But I seen the dark, I know what's fair, I know what's real when nobody's there. I skip the shortcut, I skip the fast way, I take the long road, I take the last place, I give my best on my worst day, 'Cause the work I hide is the work that stays. No lights on me, no crowd, no sound, Just me and God in the dark, holding ground, But something in my chest won't let me down, I feel it building up, I feel it building now. Nobody saw it, but it still counts, Every quiet win, every hard-won round, I don't need the noise, I don't need the crowd, God got a book and my name's written down. Nobody saw it, but it still counts, Small steps stack up, small steps turn to mountains, I'm still here, still true, still found, Nobody saw it, but it still counts. (Stripped down, near a whisper) Maybe no one claps for me here, Maybe I cry when no one's near, But I'm not chasing eyes, I'm chasing years, I'm building light that don't disappear. One day the dark is gonna break, One day the tired's gonna wake, One day they'll see the man I make, Shining like stars I couldn't fake. Nobody saw it, but it still counts, Every quiet win, every hard-won round, I don't need the noise, I don't need the crowd, God got a book and my name's written down. Nobody saw it, but it STILL counts, Small steps stack up, small steps turn to mountains, I'm still here, still true, still found, Nobody saw it — but it still counts. Still counts... still counts... Write it down, God, write it down.
