I Can't Give Up
Lee Williams And The Spiritual QC's Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't give up now
See I come, I come too far to turn around now
I can′t give up
I can't give up now
You see, I come too far to turn around now.
I come too far, around (repeat)
(Adlib)
Too many too many hill
I lead awake at night, and I shed too many tears
The lord brought me over, has brought me over
Brought me over Too many rocks and reels
I come too far to turn around.
Sometimes, while on this journey
My body sometimes it gets all wreaking with pains
But I know all of my works, all of my works, all works my works
Down here won't be in vain...
I′m glad I got a few more, few more rocks, a few more reel
But one day I′m going to make it, I'm going make it
To the top of the hill
Lord, I come too far to turn around
One more thing,
Sometimes, I find myself standing
At the crossroads, in my life,
Standing there just wondering
Which way which way, which way should I turn
Seem like every time I turn to my right side
I find trouble, confusion, misunderstanding,
Already on my right side.
Then I turn to my left side
I find out somebody is sick
Somebody is the hospital
Somebody done past and gone away
Every time I look, I see hills
I see hills, and more hills, and more hills, and more hills
And more hills, and more hills
That′s already waiting on me
Make me feel like,
I just want to just fold my arms
And sit down somewhere and just moan
But Then when I begin to take inventory over my life
Turn around and look back
And I see all the hills,
I see all the mountains
I see all the valleys
That Gods already brought me over,
That let's me know
That let′s me know
That let's me know
So I still away...
Look up, and tell God...
I can′t give up, now(repeat)
The song "I Can't Give Up" by Lee Williams And The Spiritual QC's is a gospel song that reflects on the struggle of perseverance on a journey with God. The chorus line, "I can't give up now," is repeated twice throughout the song with the lyrics emphasizing the significance of the journey, and how the singer has come too far to turn around. The journey can be seen as both physical and spiritual, with a lot of challenges and hardships faced in life.
The first verse of the song is about how the difficulty of the journey manifests in the singer staying awake at night and shedding tears, hurt by the metaphorical rocks and reels on the path towards their goal. However, despite the pain and hardship, the singer has faith that their works down here will not be in vain. The second verse acknowledges the existence of crossroads in life where one may be confused about which path to take, only to find more obstacles and challenges along the way. However, the singer reminds themselves that they have come too far to give up and looks to God for strength.

And more hills, and more hills, and more hills
These challenges seem endless
That's already waiting on me
These challenges are already here, waiting for me
Make me feel like, I just want to just fold my arms
These challenges make me feel like giving up
And sit down somewhere and just moan
I just want to sit and complain
But Then when I begin to take inventory over my life
When I reflect on my life
Turn around and look back
I see the progress I've made
And I see all the hills, I see all the mountains
I see all the obstacles I've overcome
I see all the valleys That Gods already brought me over,
I remember the times God has helped me cross valleys
That let's me know That let′s me know That let's me know
This reminds me and assures me
So I still away... Look up, and tell God...
I remain strong and look to God for guidance
I can't give up, now
I cannot afford to give up now
