I WON’T QUIT

Even when the harder I try the more I fail,

I won’t quit!

It’s because no one else can feel this pain

That I won’t quit!

It’s because I have to try time and again

That I won’t quit!

It’s because I know no gain with no pain

I won’t quit!

 

Not that I know not how hard it is,

Not that I forget how heavy it is,

Not that I forget how mythical it is,

Not that I feel I have you to please,

It’s just that to think of “quit” I freeze!

And that I have heard many say;

Losers never have to stay!

 

It’s because I am not yet where I need to be,

But not where I used to be,

That I won’t quit!

It’s because God picks me up when I fail,

And He never lets me to trail,

That I won’t quit!

 

It’s because I have more reasons to smile,

Than troubles to steal mine a smile,

That I won’t quit!

 

Not that I have less the challenges,

Not that I have power to stop changes,

Not that I will stop the storm coming,

Not that I will put out the fire burning,

It’s just that I’m bigger than the threat!

And that when you think me not fit,

It’s when I feel I will go through it!

And for that I won’t quit!
