Vocals by Brandon Rounds
I'm a songwriter from Lockport, NY, USA. I started writing songs on a Heit acoustic guitar at age ten, and continued throughout my angst ridden high school and college years. I gave up songwriting and pretended to be an adult for a couple of decades. Now my kids are done with college and I can stop pretending. Nobody was buying it anyways. I recently started writing songs again, concentrating on songs with strong melodies that people can hum along to on their way home from work. The whole introspective, angst-ridden thing is long gone. Anyway, I can still feed any introspective tendencies by working on my musical-drama-in-progress, which has the cheery title, "The Death Book."

Story behind the song
This is a rough home demo with the original lyrics of the song.
Lyrics
VERSE1 They say I’ll never be someone That you’d be better off without me They say I’ll quit before I’m done What do they think they know about me? They can’t even see the path beneath my feet CHORUS ‘Cause I’ve got dreams Places to go I’ll show you things They’ll never know Look in my eyes And I know you will see What they say is not what I will be So don’t give up on me VERSE2 They say you can’t depend on me I’ll never be a nine-to-fiver You’ll waste the time you spend on me Why can’t they see I’m a survivor? And I’m not afraid to fail ‘til I succeed REPEAT CHORUS BRIDGE Don’t give up I’ll live up To the dreams that we share We’ll make it, I swear Don’t give up on me… Don’t give up on me… Don’t give up on me… REPEAT CHORUS
