I want to give up
You cry and you scream and you stomp your feet and you shout. You say, ‘You know what? I’m giving up, I don’t care.’ And then you go to bed and you wake up and it’s a brand new day, and you pick yourself back up again.- Nicole Scherzinger
…but I can’t.
I don’t want to pause.
I don’t want to take a deep breath.
I want to give up.
I don’t want to have to worry about my ambitions that keep me awake at night.
Neither, do I want to worry about waking up every morning to pursue these dreams.
Don’t you get it? I want to give up. I just wan dey mehn.
But what’s the price though? The price for giving up.
Mediocrity?
Poverty?
Not fulfilling purpose?
Bitterness?
Anger and Frustration?
Not worth it at all. So, I will keep going.
I want to give up but I can’t.
