Don't give up! Don't give in!
Chris_Yash Samsundar 1999 (Georgetown)
The walk you have walked.
The trial you have faced.
You give it your all!
Yet you have failed!
"Failure!" They laughed.
You run here! There! And everywhere!
Screaming for help in silence.
But nobody knows.
Their hateful words keep repeating.
In your mind.
"A total failure!"
Don't give up! Don't give in!
Their hateful words are nothing.
Their dreadful laughter is letting you know that you are better than them.
Don't give up! Don't give in!
"You'll never make it! Your effort will all go to waste." They laughed.
"You will fail again and again till you give up!" They smiled at you.
Don't give up! Don't give in!
They are just scared of failing!
Try again! Fail again!
You are only failing because
You'll make it!
Don't give in! Don't give up!
Whatever they say! Is what they are.
"Your looks are laughable! You are unphotographable!" They laughed at you.
But!
Don't give up! Don't give in!
They are not who they seem to be.
They hide their true self behind their fake words.
Don't give up! Don't give in!
You're beautiful just the way you are.
Broken dreams can still make successful people.
Don't give up! Don't give in!
Not everything in life has an answer.
Google answers everything.
Yet! It's unable to tell you who you are.
Don't give in! Don't give up!
Whatever they say! They say!
You weren't born to please anybody.
Don't try to please anybody but yourself.
If you wore a witch hat and sat on a broomstick. Makes you happy! Then do it!
Don't give up! Don't give in!
They'll always have something to say.
You weren't born to be used and thrown away.
You weren't born to please anyone but yourself.
You weren't born to be the hero of society.
Don't give up! Don't give in!
You're the writer and keeper of your story,
If you want it to be bright and happy.
If you want it to be gloomy and dear.
You can make it whatever you want.
Don't give up! Don't give in!
Hold fast to your dream!
For if your dream dies your life becomes like a bird with a broken wing.
Don't give up! Don't give in!
Life will only treat you the way you see
yourself.
Don't give up! Don't give in!
You're worth it.
