I'd do the latter. Some things are unattainable, that's just how it is.
Some artists are just unbelievably, off-the-chart good, and most mere mortals will not get there.
This is not to say give up, no, never quit! Keep practicing, be the absolute best you can be.
You may just find some other calling in that musical journey.
