T.A.N.K (Never Give Up Song)

This started out as a fan made song for Deji then quickly tuned to a song for people struggling, this confidence builder poem shares to never give up

what does the word T.A.N.K mean to me

it means a person that is


Trustful, Awesome, Noteworthy and King-like

that also never gives up on the underdogs

fighting to be somebody anybody, different from the sheep

marching on to be a regular human being


so thank you Deji

you did your best to defend the underdogs fighting within the lines

teaching not just how to lose

but how to come back even stronger

I know the pain thinking you

failed us, fueled us the courage you showed us was way more beneficial

than winning

it taught us how to get back up and never give up

even if you lose

because you showed us the clue

 

tanks don’t lose

they just develop there systems

to beast mode if you beat them, no rest in them

they will train even harder then when they come back

they will come back even stronger


they'll fight for the underdogs

about to give up

because they know to never give up on anyone

especially on people who got pushed down, cussed out

told they were incapable Instead of seeing

what they were capable of

 

A tank can see an underdog in everyone's heart,

fighting the dark in them

to never bow down to that hater above them (anymore)

only for the cross and God you shall kneel

upon when you feel the tank that's inside of ya (let it out)

then nothing can hold you back  

even if you lose the battle

the war is far from over

my son this is the

 

song of never giving up

so don't you dare shut up or concede to that champion looking down on you,

you can prove your so much more different than you once was

tanks don't worry about the defeat

they just focus on the next time they meet face to face with the person

seeing there expression

go from Confident to surprised in a minute

(just like that)

when they realize an underdog that is in you was behind them the whole time cautiously waiting for a mistake

because

 

tanks lay there blood, sweat and tears out for everyone to see

to have a chance to take their rightful place

in the history books

but look

If tanks do lose they carry every loss with a lot of heavy heart but

they do not come up with excuses either for why they didn't win the fight

(this time)


because if you know better

then the fight is not finished yet

unless you give up

and back down

but don't give in

 

because tanks never stop believing even if nothings going right

(at the moment)

and you don't know what competitor is coming next

just believe because I believe you will defeat anything God puts in your way

and make the nightmares and the ghosts separate into two

while you focus on your path through,


pushing past your weakness to get to your strengths

walking through the hard days

for one day

you'll see your dream on the other side of that door

if you put in hard work

I'm sure every thing you inspire to be will come true

if you believe in me too

Ill be your back bone to write Inspiration while you achieve great things


just like a tank keep looking forward don't look back because yesterday is not chasing you back

because its done and today has just begun

 

realize that you were a champion

before you heard this rhyme,

you have already taking those first steps on to your climb


when your unsure about your journey and what you should be doing

keep on going

but if you need reassurance

this song is a reminder that you are strong so never give up, you can fly with the best of them


survive all of them obstacles thrown at you

defeat all of them watermarks told to you

by the people that you are never going to be a

champion


but show them something even better while you rip that disguise off

a glow and it showed a person appear right

in front of

their eyes what was inside of you

(all this time)


this is what a T.A.N.K means to me
