Kaa.ddu, Thomas Prime, Knowmads - Never Give Up lyrics

The first time I fell in love
To headphones on a bus
I made a promise to myself I'll
Hold ya second to none
I gave my soul and my voice
And my faith and my trust
And through it all I found the
Only thing I never give up
All those times I question
Thinking I was never enough
I made a promise to myself I'll
Hold ya second to none
I swear I sacrificed it all for
The sake of your love
And through it all I found the
Only thing I never give up

When it feels like the very first time
Should I ever hear my mom say
"My boy I'm proud of you" for all
That work just to get on
And I know times are looking bleak
So she it knew all along
All those flights back and forth
Every week when I'd be gone
As a child I would smile
Just listening to this song
Finally form with style to
Infinity and beyond
Trying to minimize my movement
Limit me like a pawn
They criticizing my music
You fucking kidding me dog?
It's more than living a job
Understand I really love my sound
These fuck boys ain't plugged in with
That new drug in town
I think your favourite rappers just
Gave ya'll the run around
Like are ya'll really still turning
Up when ya coming down?
You fucking clowns neck deep for
The fame and riches
Watch em dodge jaded kisses
From these shady bitches fuck a stat
Ya'll can judge me by my makes and misses
For me it's hard to clean
The kitchen without breaking dishes

The first time I fell in love
To headphones on a bus
I made a promise to myself I'll
Hold ya second to none
I gave my soul and my voice
And my faith and my trust
And through it all I found the
Only thing I never give up
All those times I question
Thinking I was never enough
I made a promise to myself I'll
Hold ya second to none
I swear I sacrificed it all for
The sake of your love
And through it all I found the
Only thing I never give up

See I get ghost when I
Smoke all the different types
We so close, make a toast
Thinking this the life
That west coast ocean mist
Like a kiss goodnight
She hold on for so long
'till I miss my flight
I love you now but you were hated at first
You probably just figured out
How these relationships work
If Tom's missing long distance
Don't be blaming this verse
Those phone calls get broke off 'cuz
You just making it worse
Hearing perfect hundred million dollar flows
Through the cheapest mikes
Watching restless days creeping
Into sleepless nights
Up recording in the morning 'till
I see the light
Call it my photosynthesis feeding
These seeds of life
Fruit's of labour seamen right
But I'mma need a knife
So even if the money tight we gonna be aight
Ain't no stopping as we're hopping
On this plane now
'Cuz only when I'm getting high
Do I break down

Since I was twelve years old I
Swore I'd never give up
I got that fire make the
Whole world listen to us
I get a rush when I'm standing
On stage with a mike
This for the ones who listen in
To every page of my life
I spit my truth for the lost souls destitute
Find strength in what I'm saying
Fuck if I'm impressing you
Don't you ever let a critic
Get the best of you
'Cuz they could never move the
World thats the truth
Maybe God's testing you
Make you second guess what
You was destined to
It's up to you to come to the
Conclusion if it's meant to be
If the words you're writing now
Will affect the next century
Can't let this cynicism redirect your energy
Maybe it's 'uness and we the
Ones who choose our destiny
Either way it ain't a choice for me
I'm still gonna bless the beat
Make you raise eyebrows, think twice
Press repeat 'Cuz when I killed the game
The only time I could rest in piece
