Never Give Up

Never give up
What you want is not always what you need
Always keep your chin up
Even though we can get cut and will bleed

I try never to feel down
And try only to feed on what I need
My chin is always up
Not all wounds I have received would bleed

Keep yourself on the level
And you will succeed
When you’re not on the level
You only succeed with your greed

I try always to be on the level
But don’t always succeed
When I was not on the level
I did succeed with my greed

I will never give up
May not get what I want but get what I need
Hope you will keep your chins up
May you all survive times of very great greed
