I'm very sure it works as an inspirational song for young people struggling with life, love, living every day to the fullest. Read the lyrics, think for a moment with your eyes closed, then watch this video. Maybe you will be kinder to someone today. Maybe you will write in your journal or send someone a text that will make them smile. Maybe you will write a song and be inspired.
Whatever you do with Jason's words, remember you are loved.
"...Even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up...
I don't want to be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences, they do a lot to teach us how to use the tools
and gifts we got, yea, we got a lot at stake
And in the end you're still my friend
At least we did intend for us to work
We didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I got and what I'm not, and who I am...
I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you my love, I'm still looking up... still looking up..."
(Lyrics by Jason Mraz, "I Won't Give Up"); video below by Elliott Sellers.
