I could of gave in but I didn't
I could of quit when I couldn't move on
I could of died when a car almost hit me
But I didn't my heart is still strong
I could of cried when my grandpa didn't make it
I could of stopped when my coach said to go
I could of dragged when she told me to hustle
I ran fast when I should of ran slow
I could of yelled when I felt I couldn't make it
Should of quit when my team wouldn't win
But instead I stood taller and beat it
Though weak I still managed to stand
I fought the tears all the anger and hatred
passed the test beat the rest I'm elite
I succeeded with doubt still inside me
took my mind off of failure and defeat
I hit the floor than looked up towards heaven
and thanked God for not giving up
For believing when everyone wouldn't
when I dropped it he picked up my cup
I should of gave in but I didn't
I should of quit when I couldn't move on
I should of died when I said I couldn't make it
Thank you God for keeping me strong
