Asher Roth - Never Give Up lyrics

What you know about feeling the pressure?
Constantly tested to get accepted and
To where profession's perfected
And respect is what you strive for
Live and die for what you in the lab writing
Down all the time for
Critics is quick to criticize, critiquing
So you wanna make it
Do what they said you couldn't be
Who wouldn't willingly laugh in the
Face of the hater
'Cause everyone will hate when they
Feel that you greater, but still
You stay pissed itching for
That number one hit
But everything you spit is nothing but shit
So fuck it, I'm done with it
I don't wanna do it hardly
The weight on my shoulders has gotten
Way too heavy for me
I just need to see if I can find myself
Not for you, but for I, myself, and me
But every time I try to stop
Something inside picks me up
Tells me that I'm made for this and
Never should I give it up

Never gonna lay down, never gonna stay down
This is me so never will I stray now
Even when it's feeling rough
And I feel me heating up
It's the feeling in my gut
Never will I give it up
Never gonna lay down, never gonna stay down
This is me so never will I stray now
Even when it's feeling rough
And I feel me heating up
It's the feeling in my gut
Never will I give it up

I get sick and tired sometimes
Wanna retire at times stay trying for mine
Hope it's all in my mind
At times I feel I rhyme for the wrong reasons
Violent hate lines in songs for me to be
That ain't me
See I'm all about what I believe in
Jealousy driven got me paranoid and breathing
Even with the rapid rise of haters I notice
I remain calm and capitalize
As I stay focused just know this
Once I'm in that zone I won't snap out
I'm finish the CD while I'm at it, shit
I'm not out for chips, what would I go
Half the rappers don't get on
The others never listened to
This isn't new to you
How many dudes you know hungry
Determined to even though
He lives comfortably grow with me
Let me show you where my true heart is
Never will I give up
I'ma finish what I started

Never gonna lay down, never gonna stay down
This is me so never will I stray now
Even when it's feeling rough
And I feel me heating up
It's the feeling in my gut
Never will I give it up
Never gonna lay down, never gonna stay down
This is me so never will I stray now
Even when it's feeling rough
And I feel me heating up
It's the feeling in my gut
Never will I give it up
Never gonna lay down, never gonna stay down
This is me so never will I stray now
Even when it's feeling rough
And I feel me heating up
It's the feeling in my gut
Never will I give it up

Yeah, never will I give it up
Never, you can't stop me
