from Swivelable · host Lliam Greguez

Written for a family whose child has a medical problem, and because they were poor were were wrongly accused of it being the mother's fault. They battled the courts for four years. He recently passed on from brainstem neurodegenerative disease that he had when the nightmare began. Mayo Clinic now has his brain for research as his condition was so rare. You can find the tracks he made here: https://soundcloud.com/ourvoiceisking/tracks She’s a single mother with a very low income He’s an eight year old who knows there’s nothing that he’s done To be torn from his mother, his sisters and his brother It’s the only life he knew and he loved it like not other But you don’t give up, you don’t give up, you don’t give up, or give in You know; you don’t give up, you don’t give up, you don’t give up, or give in We’re always thinking of you Aaron, you’re always on our mind We know your lonely, you know we love you all the time How can some strangers say what’s good for you or I There’s one who knows best, look in the child’s eye The world is crumbling round me, its in a dizzy spin With all I see and hear, my heart is full and breaking I could end up on a mountain top or in a deep prison But I know I never, never give up or give in But we won't give up, we won't give up, we won't give up, or give in You know; we won't give up, we won't give up, we won't give up, or give in
