	Story Behind the Song Trials was written to encourage myself and others to 'keep on keeping on' no matter how tough things get. The concluding statement in the song states that "the joys of life are worth their sufferings" I wrote the song at home during a very creative song writing period, which was most likely stimulated by attending a full time songwriting course at a creative arts college.Heavy amounts of time spent rehearsing but recording wise it only took 4 or 5 takes with a couple of vocal takes. Mixing took a good 3- 4 hours and became an instrument of it's own for the song when creating the vocal effects etc. There was very little overdubbing used in the final version, 99% of it is live takes, which we prefer, to capture the groove and spirit of the piece as a collective all at once. -Brodie Lyrics I've walked with the good I've walked with the wicked Been slandered and cursed, honoured and praised Worked with white collars,I've worked with the labourers In sports and arts I have played I've roared like a lion, purred like a cat Gone to extremes, I've held myself back Felt great victory, endured the loss Led with direction and I've gotten lost And sometimes I wish that four walls would surround me With bars on the windows and chains on the doors By my love for you will always make me step out to suffer the trials of this world I've been through the seasons Through rain and sun Counted myself fortunate, considered myself cursed Seen a new-born child, seen an ended life I've been guilty and innocent alike And sometimes I wish that four walls would surround me With bars on the windows and chains on the doors But my love for you will always make me step out to suffer the trials of this world Seen the beauty, witnessed the ugliness Yeah I've watched dreams shatter And the making of new visions But I still believe the joys of life are worth their sufferings The joys of life are worth their sufferings And sometimes I wish that four walls would surround me With bars on the windows and chains on the doors But my love for you will always make me step out to suffer the trials of this world So come on!
