    An upbeat motivational song, with a strong powerful chorus. People are saying it's my best song yet, musically. Let me know what you think!

    Story Behind the Song
    This is the first song I used distortion on the guitar track. It livened up the sound a lot. I wanted to write something a little more upbeat lyrically and musically. It took me a while to record the vocals. There are parts I'm not happy with, but I keep having to remind myself that I'm recording demos in my bedroom.

    Lyrics
    Shake The World

    I'm far behind in the game of life
    At least sometimes it seems
    Every day I go through the same motions
    Having lost site of my dreams

    And as I sit here and contemplate
    What the future has in store
    I wonder if I'm not asking too much
    To want a little bit more

    CHORUS
    I wanna shake the world
    Let everybody know I'm here
    I wanna shake the world
    I wanna conquer all my fears

    I wanna shake the world
    And I have no plan to stop
    I'm gonna leave the past behind me now
    I'm shootin' for the top

    No guts no glory no pain no gain
    I've heard it all before
    You'll get nowhere waiting for someone else
    To come and open a door

    So i go through each step one by one
    Preparing for my role
    I won't let distractions or complications
    Stand in the way of my goal

    CHORUS


    The road's not easy
    And I've come much further than I ever imagined I could
    But I've much further still to go

    So come along join me for the ride
    Let your heart be your guide
    And you can reach any destination
    If you just believe deep inside


    CHORUS
