Lyrically, this track sounds like it’s about a steady relationship where both parties are dedicated to loving and reassuring each other, reminding each other that they are “still here” no matter what. But there’s an even deeper sentiment behind these lyrics for Venae, who took some time away from music before releasing this comeback single to undergo treatment for breast cancer. “Still Here” can take on a new meaning depending on your personal experiences, and Venae seeks to promote community and hope for cancer survivors in this track.
Having a companion you know you can rely on, whether it be romantic, platonic, or familial, is one of the most beautiful things in life. Venae expresses that throughout this song, describing a love that is full of trust and mutual respect. Each person has promised to always remind the other of their strength, and help them find that strength when it wavers. Venae sings “take my hand, walk with me” to show that your actions for others don’t have to be grand to be impactful. Just walking through life with someone and showing them that you’re there is enough.
