about

"Don't Give Up" is one of my favorite songs from my debut full-length record. Once again, Damien Somville put his artistry into arranging, recording, and mixing this tune. This too is from our Paris sessions.

lyrics

Don't Give Up

Words and Music by Robert Martin Teetsov

Don't give up
when times are tough
and you think
you've lost your best self
who you used to be
when you were free.
Don't give up.

Don't give in
when times are thin
and you think
love's nowhere to be found.
You will find love one day
I hope and pray.
Don't give in.

Yes I know
not everyone's an object of desire
but I know
my voice will reach the sky.
When the objects of desire fall to dust
my voice will still be rising
higher and higher.

'Cause I won't give in
to this maddening din
that chokes the world
with indifference and spite.
I will not surrender to it.
I'll keep my song alive.
I won't give in.

Oh please, my friend,
don't give in.
No, no,
don't give in.
