Don't give up lyrics

[Strophe 1: Xavier Naidoo]

In this proud land we grew up strong

We were wanted all along

I was taught to fight, taught to win

I never thought I could fail

No fight left or so it seems

I am a man whose dreams have all deserted

I've changed my face, I've changed my name

But no one wants you when you lose

[Refrain: Bantu]

Don't give up, 'cause you have friends

Don't give up, you're not beaten yet

Don't give up, I know you can make it good

[Strophe 2: Xavier Naidoo]

Though I saw it all around

Never thought I could be affected

Thought that we'd be the last to go

It is so strange the way things turn

Drove the night toward my home

The place that I was born, on the lakeside

As daylight broke, I saw the earth

The trees had burned down to the ground

[Refrain: Bantu]

Don't give up, you still have us

Don't give up, we don't need much of anything

Don't give up, 'cause somewhere there's a place where we belong

[Strophe 3: Bantu & Xavier Naidoo]

Rest your head, you worry too much

It's going to be alright

When times get rough, you can fall back on us

Don't give up, please don't give up

Got to walk out of here, I can't take anymore

Going to stand on that bridge, keep my eyes down below

Whatever may come and whatever may go

That river's flowing, oh that river's flowing

[Bridge: Xavier Naidoo]

Moved on to another town

Tried hard to settle down

For every job, so many men

So many men no-one needs

[Refrain: Bantu]

Don't give up, 'cause you have friends

Don't give up, you're not the only one

Don't give up, no reason to be ashamed

Don't give up, you still have us

Don't give up now, we're proud of who you are

Don't give up, you know it's never been easy

Don't give up, 'cause I believe there's a place

There's a place where we belong

[Outro: Bantu]

Don't give up, don't give up, don't give up

Don't give up, don't give up, don't give up

Don't give up, don't give up, don't give up

Don't give up, don't give up, don't give up

Don't give up, don't give up, don't give up
