Songtext von Never Give Up

From the streets of San Diego to the slums of echo park Broke down and homeless, that's where I got my start I bounced around for years doing this and that but now I'm doing good and I'm never looking back I began with nothing, I still ain't got much and when life had me down I had to be tough From the age of fourteen I was on my own No one would do it for me so I did it alone Shelter to shelter, and jail to jail I'm here to tell you right now that I will not fail I wish all my old friends could see me now cause they never would believe what I am doing now Cause I never gave up (never give up) I never gave up And right now I'm where I wanna be Maybe not for you but it's good enough for me I don't need no fancy cars or no diamond rings All I wanna do is get on stage and sing because my dream is today and I'm doing it strong No matter what the odds I will still push on I will do it for the poor who have no voice and for all of the victims who had no choice I will do it for the weak who cannot fight and for those who were wronged i will make things right It's been an uphill battle, my fingers have bled but I'm almost there and I'm far from dead
