Story Behind The Song
This song was inspired by a man posing as a producer for a major label, who cheated me, Johnny Jace, out of a record deal and money I gave him towards setting up studio time to record some of my songs. Unfortunately he skipped the country with a lot of peoples hopes and dreams in his pocket and was never caught.

Lyrics
My Name
Lost in a world where nobody knows you
Leading a life where nobody showed you how to survive
Out on your own with no assistance
Facing the truth without resistance still I'm alive
They're gonna know My Name
It's always been the same
It's nothin fancy, it's nothin plain
They're gonna know My Name
They're gonna feel my pain
I'm sick and tired of playing their game
Never had love, no one to hold me
Alone and confused, they never told me I was someone
All of my life I've been rejected
Lost in the crowd, always neglected second to none
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
I can't take anymore - I can't take anymore
People listen to me and and know my pain
I won't take anymore - I won't take anymore
People listen to me and know My Name
(Repeat Chorus)
