DON’T GIVE UP
Stevie J Mayer
I may be down but I’m not destitute
I’ve just got to find my own way out
It’s either that or I’ll sink further down
But I don’t wanna go out like that
Remember those days that I spent in the sun
Oh how could I ever forget?
Those are the days that I’ll recapture once again
I know it’s not the end so…
Don’t give up on me just yet
I’ve hit a rough spot
I might look beaten but I am not
Don’t give up on me just yet
‘Cause I’m comin’ through it
Hey I’m comin’ through it ready or not
The more I learn it seems the less I know
And those I thought were friends were not
I’ve been tryin’ to crack the code
Is it a martyr or a saint that’s walkin’ next to me
On the road, I don’t know but…
Don’t give up on me just yet
I’ve hit a rough spot
I might look beaten but I am not
Don’t give up on me just yet
‘Cause I’m comin’ through it
Yeah I’m comin’ through it ready or not
Lord I know those were your footprints in the sand
You carried me all the way (carry me away)
But Lord you know I still get lonely though I pray
Have I been saying all my prayers in vain, oh?
INSTRUMENTAL
I tried to call God on the phone last night
They said his line was engaged
I left a message sayin’ need help please come right away
Don’t delay and…
Don’t give up on me just yet
‘Cause I will recover, then I’ll be out of here like a shot
Don’t give up on me just yet
‘Cause I’m a survivor
And I’m gonna revive all the plans that I dropped
Ooh… all the plans that I dropped
Ooh… comin’ back, comin’ back
Comin’ back, I’m comin’ back
