A deeply personal acoustic ballad about loving someone even after they’re gone, or worse — still living but not with you.
This is grief, dignity, and devotion in its rawest form.
“A Promise I Still Keep” is a stripped down — carried by nylon guitar, Nyabinghi rhythm, and soft strings beneath a broken voice.
Not every love needs to be returned to stay true.

You broke me quiet — not with words, but with the things you never said
Took more than money… left a silence in my bed
We built something I still see with both eyes closed
And though you’re gone… that garden still grows
You found your path, and I found mine
But some love ain’t made to fit in time
I still hold your name like a sacred flame
Not for you… but for the One who heard me say your name
'Cause I still love you in my special way
Not to chase, not to beg, not to make you stay
But I made a promise when I bowed my head
To carry your soul, even if we never share a bed
Yeah… I still love you
In the only way I know that’s real
You hurt me in ways no hand could touch
But I wouldn’t trade it — not for less or not for much
Pain taught me where the real vows live
In the heart that breaks… and still forgives
I said it once… and I meant it still
In good times, bad times, storm or still
It’s not about who stays or leaves
It’s about the quiet love… that never needs to be believed
Yes… I still love you in my special way
Not for what you gave, not for what you took away
This love don’t shout, and it don’t sleep
It’s a promise I still keep
Yeah… I still love you
Even if you never look back to see
