Never Give Up

s I walked across the streets I couldn't help but notice the ruins They were so bad i could hardly breathe And were as hard as a bedrock I noticed all this But I still kept walking As I swam beneath the rivers I couldn't help but discover the wreckage Remains of men, children even divas It was like hell's appendage I discovered all this But still kept swimming As I flew across the skies I heard the cries of those above Telling me How They failed after so many tries With their minds as clean as a dove I heard all this But still kept flying I missed the rapture But never lost hope After all am still God's creature And I missed it with a pope I knew all this But I kept moving I stopped to rest but fell asleep And I saw haters in my dream Thinking I would quit my trip Ill prove them wrong as if it were a film I knew all this But I struggled on And finally I reached my destination After walking, swimming and flying Like every other creation Who never stopped trying I finally made it Because I never GAVE UP.
