Too Short - Don't Ever Give Up lyrics

rate me

[Too $hort]

Yeah you know, we always tryin to get this money, that's what we do

It ain't easy.. but I'm tellin you, it ain't hard either

All you gotta do is keep hustlin man, don't ever give up

I don't care what it is, handle yo' biz

Forget about the woulda, coulda, and if I did's

Cause that's just the past, you know it never lasts

And you know how time flies by so fast

Look at rap music, they said it was a fad

But now it's takin over, and I'm so glad

Cause I never stopped rappin, but that's what I do

If you quit yo' thang, you might never find the truth

I had choices in life, I coulda did somethin else

I did what I wanted to, I did it for myself

Now whatcha gon' do with yo' life

People try to tell you what to do, it's yo' life

You better make the most of it, live to the fullest

Think positive and don't dwell on the BULLSHIT

I can't tell you no better

If you thinkin 'bout quittin, don't ever

[Chorus: Too $hort]

Don't ever give up, I know it ain't workin

It's been a long time, you never stop tryin

But you can't quit, you gotta keep goin

You already knowin, you can't give up

Don't ever give up, give it all you got

It only gets better, never say never

You know you can't quit, you gotta keep goin

You already knowin, you can't give up, you just cain't!

[Too $hort]

Comin up is hard, givin up is easy

You always get the game from your homey Too Sheezy

I keep it so real, never spit it false

I hope you make it big and if you ever fall off

Remember these words, it's only what you make it

Anything is possible you want it better take it

I ain't talkin 'bout stealin, felonies'll ruin it

Stupid all I'm talkin 'bout is takin opportunities

Doors open up and when you get another chance

Either hold up the wall, or get out there and dance

It's on you, do what you wanna do

You know why everybody always punkin you

Talkin shit they know you're bluffin, won't do nothin

Sittin on the shelf like Stove Top Stuffin

I know you had enough and want to call it quits

Believe me, this ain't it

[Chorus]

[Too $hort]

Isn't hard to see, use your eyes

It's time to tell the truth, cause we through witcha lies

Utilize all your steppin stones, gotta be prepared

Sittin 'round dreamin how you bout to be a player

The years and the time fly, you ain't even workin

Went by overnight you went from 18 to 30

Nothin goin on, never set a goal

Dreams can't come true, and now you gettin old

You start to represent, everything you hate

But don't give up, cause it's never too late

All you need is a plan, a purpose and a model

And quit livin life like you 'bout to hit the lotto

Get rich on your own, buy a new home

Keep your real friends, leave them haters alone

I see you when you get there, rollin to the bank

I know you cain't let go, I know you cain't

[Chorus: minus first "don't"]

[Too $hort]

Nah we can't give up, gotta keep hustlin for life baby

It's hard on the black man, tryin to get my stack together y'know?

Big thangs..
