[Intro]
(I say)
Yeah, don't give up, don't give up
Don't give up
[Verse]
A don't give up, let we live up
A don't give up, come make we live up
Don't give up, come make we live up
Go out there and show the people
That every man got to try
I don't give up (Wo-yoy)
Come make we live up
You can't afford to reach so far
And just do one thing, you got to step back
Don't give up (Wo-yoy)
Make we live up
Every time you try
And you don't see no sailor
That business would never rеach nowhere
Don't give up
I tеll you, don't give up
You got to live up, my brothers
You got to live up, my sisters
Don't give up; don't give up!
Haffi live up, live up
Man, you haffi live up
Don't you walk away from reality
You got to face reality, a don't give up
Don't give up (No-no)
A make we live up
We nah go give up
We got to live-live
We've got to live
We have to live up
We nah go give up
You don't want nothing tomorrow
You want something today
Fi have to live up
If we don't got dinner tonight
If we don't got money tomorrow
We have to live up
Jah Jah know, we nah go give up
We nah go give up
We got to live up! (Woh-yoy)
We nah go give up
We nah go give up
Let we live up, let we live up
Let we live up right (Yeah)
Your mama may be poor
Your daddy may be poor
Come-make we live up, live up
