"STILL STANDING IN THE RAIN"
FROM SHASHO AND THE CAPTAIN PRODUCTIONS

Born from thunder and baptized in distortion, SleepGate is a genre-defying rock force that channels the raw pulse of rebellion, resilience, and revelation. Formed in the shadow of a world unraveling, the band fuses cinematic storytelling with searing guitar work, haunting vocals, and lyrics that cut through the static of modern life.
Their debut track, Still Standing In The Rain, is more than a song—it's a declaration. A sonic storm that refuses to break, SleepGate’s sound is forged from the ashes of classic rock, post-grunge grit, and progressive ambition. Think Pink Floyd meets Soundgarden in a lightning-lit dreamscape.
SleepGate is the musical embodiment of The Liberty Code mythos—where every note is a battle cry, every chorus a coded message, and every silence a reckoning. With visuals as vivid as their sound, the band invites listeners into a world where sleep is rebellion, and waking up means facing the truth.
SleepGate isn’t just a band. It’s a portal. Step through.
I’ve walked through years that never felt like mine 
Chased dreams that faded in the rearview sign 
Watched lovers leave and friends drift away 
But I’m still here, I’m still okay 
Every scar’s a story I survived 
Every tear just proof I’m still alive 
I’m still standing in the rain 
Let it wash away the pain 
Lightning cracks, but I don’t run 
I face the storm ‘til morning comes 
I’ve been broken, I’ve been bruised 
But I’ve got nothing left to lose 
I’m still standing in the rain 
I’ve heard the silence louder than the crowd 
Felt invisible, but never bowed 
Held onto hope like a fraying rope 
And found my strength in letting go 
Every fall just taught me how to rise 
Every loss became a new sunrise 
I’m still standing in the rain 
Let it wash away the pain 
Lightning cracks, but I don’t run 
I face the storm ‘til morning comes 
I’ve been broken, I’ve been bruised 
But I’ve got nothing left to lose 
I’m still standing in the rain 
[Soaring solo with echoes of Clapton and Gilmour] 
Let the thunder roll, let the heavens cry 
I’ll be the echo that never dies 
I’m still standing in the rain 
I’m not afraid of what I’ve seen 
I wear my past like faded jeans 
I’ve been shattered, I’ve been scarred 
But I still play this old guitar 
I’m still standing in the rain
