Lyric Video - youtu.be/Ym3sGs23HB8
OMB Playthrough - youtu.be/pJGjxuEZ860

This is a song about perseverance and "not" giving up. When I think "perseverance", I think "skateboarding", which is what inspired the album artwork.

The main riff of this song was actually inspired by the band Protest The Hero; they had a very "sporadic" nature to their music and I was trying to mimic that while remaining "catchy". I initially wrote the music years ago, but later made refinements and just got around to recording it and writing the lyrics this year.

I wasn't sure what this song would be about at first, but I had the idea of writing about chasing my dreams and "politely" blocking out the nay-sayers and "alternative" career options. However, when I got to the bridge/breakdown, I wanted something powerful, and I came up with the phrase "Don't back down; stand YOUR ground". Originally, the lyrics were from my perspective, but because of that one word (your), I changed the perspective to be talking to someone and encouraging them. So essentially, this song is meant to be encouraging, and hopefully motivates the listener not to give up.

lyrics

Verse:
Down on the floor
You've been here many times before
You can't ignore
The time in hand is running short

Pre-Chorus:
No end in sight
And nothing's going right
Why even try
There's nothing left inside

Chorus:
It always hurts to lose what you wanted
But it feels worse to never have tried it
It's not the first, and won't be the last time
So get up again

Verse:
Still holding on
Still pushing through this marathon
Give all you've got
There's not much further left to crawl

Pre-Chorus:
No end in sight
And nothing's going right
Why even try
There's nothing left inside

Chorus:
It always hurts to lose what you wanted
But it feels worse to never have tried it
It's not the first, and won't be the last time
So get up again

Breakdown:
Don't back down
Stand your ground
Get up again
And again
