I won’t give up

There’s a battle ahead of me

There’s a battle I am in

And I won’t give up

I won’t give in to pressure

I won’t give in to self

I won’t give in to people

I won’t

I just won’t

The battles of life are before me

They stare me in the face

They taunt me

They tell me I can’t make it

They tease me

They remind me of my past

Of my failures

Of my weaknesses

Of my fears

But I am not staying down

I’ve fallen many times

I’ve failed many times

But I won’t stay down

Greater is He who is in me,

Than everything out there

I must believe this

I must embrace it

I am greater than all that’s out there

I know that they want me out of the game

But they’ve lost because I am still in

I am still moving forward

I am still believing

I am still dreaming

I am still in

I won’t cut corners

I’ll pay the price to keep standing

To keep fighting

To keep playing

I won’t give up

I won’t give in

I just won’t

Because my Father lives

And moves

And works in me

So am sorry if you thought I was done

I’m not

I am still in

And I am in for the long haul

Amen.
