I’M NOT GIVING UP! It’s just the name of the song for this week, and it’s about NOT giving up! But, it’s appropriate as a bit of focus on the thought of giving up because it was a bit of a stressful week, so this is part of a reminder that every week may not be a homerun, but as long as we step back towards the center line, that is still progress.

Although having an off week, or month, or year, or decade may not feel like giving up on oneself because we just move from one day to the next day and our focuses change based on where we are and what we are doing, a reminder that we are investing in ourselves is also important, so here is to that reminder that I am not giving up on me!

Full Lyrics

Yesterday I woke up wanting to die
Haven’t seen the sunlight in some time
Seems like all the plants around me grow to the sky
All my roots are torn up, all my leaves run dry

I’m not breathing unless it’s raining
Yeah, I found saving
In the cracks of the pavement

And I’m done with the misery
Yeah, I’m done faking tragedies
‘Cause I’m not giving up on me
I’m not giving up on me
And from dirt even flowers grow
In the dark night the moon still glows

So I’m not giving up on me
I’m not giving up on me
I’m not giving up on me
I’m not giving up on me

Yesterday I woke up wanting to leave
Learning how to stand tall, looking up to the trees
Maybe Heaven has a halo waiting for me
Even fallen angels get to find their peace

I’m not breathing unless it’s raining
Yeah, I found saving
In the cracks of the pavement

And I’m done with the misery
Yeah, I’m done faking tragedies
‘Cause I’m not giving up on me
I’m not giving up on me
And from dirt even flowers grow
In the dark night, the moon still glows
So I’m not giving up on me
I’m not giving up on me

I’m not giving up on me
I’m not giving up on me
I’m not giving up on me
I’m not giving up on me
I’m not giving up on me
I’m not giving up on me

Not giving up on me, I’m not giving up on me
