not giving up



sometimes love isn't enough
and hard times makes you tough
but big props to the ones not giving up
already a decade in fighting to share our love
grab glasses and pour our  drinks
raise them up and f*ck what the world thinks
late nights at work
arguements about who isnt puting the other first
but the world is a stage
so lets team up and share the fame
what works for us might not work for others
but atleast we not scared to take it past bedroom covers
haters are going to hate and say what they say
we not scared to walk from under the shade
everyone has eyes so i know they will see
but i wont let thier hate make a prisoner out of me
 sometimes love isnt enough
but just know im not giving up
