lirik lagu esham - don't give up
[chorus]
don’t give up, don’t give up
when people in your life sometimes don’t live up
to everything you expect ’em to be
don’t give up, don’t give up
when people in your life sometimes don’t live up
to everything you expect ’em to be
[verse 1]
sittin’ back, havin’ these suicidal thoughts
a criminal never really think he gon’ get caught
or what the f~ck you thought when you comin’ up short
gotta pay these lawyers off for all thе cases they fought
and n~ggas gettin’ caught up, chargеs gettin’ brought up
unfair sentencin’ laws, it’s out of order
i’m thinkin’, then i thought of what if i get slaughtered
godlike, then i be walkin’ on water
don’t give up, even when it’s f~cked up
when everybody doin’ bad, down on they luck
while you sittin’ at home watchin’ mtv cribs
they can’t do nothin’ ’bout your stomach touchin’ your ribs
god please forgive us for the way that we live
i hope somebody listenin’ to the knowledge i give
stay positive, i only do it like this ’cause i love the kids
yeah i love the kids, so i gotta tell ’em somethin’ like
[chorus]
don’t give up, don’t give up
when people in your life sometimes don’t live up
to everything you expect ’em to be
don’t give up, don’t give up
when people in your life sometimes don’t live up
to everything you expect ’em to be
[verse 2]
in every situation there’ll be trials and tribulations
how could one man f~ck up a whole d~mn nation
my uncle lost his job, he say forget buildin’ cars
build him a sp~ceship so he could fly up to mars
the cost of livin’s goin’ up, the chance of livin’s goin’ down
two strikes against me ’cause i’m black and from the motown
land full of hopeless, sometimes my vision’s blurred
gotta stay focused on what’s the good word
on what’s the good word you ain’t heard, you’s a nerd
and i’m the sh~t like a t~rd
but they always talkin’ about that i’m perturbed
i think they all scurred ’cause they know i’m the cure
i make up twisted thoughts like they ain’t so sure
just don’t give up, don’t give up
when people in your life sometimes don’t live up
to everything you expect ’em to be
