Gyan in an interview with Kumasi-based Angel FM admitted that the Black Stars is going through difficult times but that will not force him into premature retirement from international football.
The recent calls for Ghana's record scorer to hang up his boots came on the heels of a disappointing 1-1 draw against Congo Brazzaville in a 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi.
However, the 31-year-old Kayserispor forward says he is not ready to call time on his career and only God will determine when his time with the team is up.
"In this world, things are obvious and it happens in every institution but I know I won't play the national team till the end of my life so I will one-day say goodbye to the nation," Gyan told Angel FM
"My records for the national team can't be erased, yes it can't be erased and no one can retire me from the national is only God and time".
Gyan is Ghana's all-time top scorer with 51 goals in 105 appearances.
