Story Behind The Song
This is a tune that our guitarist Tim Lewis brought in that was close to being done,, just needed some nipping and tucking here and there. We sat down and finished it one night. think it turned out pretty well. we had both been working separately, trying to come up with some strong ideas for a "rock anthem". I think he did it. Kick it wide open and ride!!!

The next rock anthem! very catchy, sing along shake your fist chorus. About excess and lots of it. Might as well go out kicking.

Lyrics
Step it up
Bring it on
You think youve got what it takes to take the whole world on
start it up break it down
To make the climb to the top you have to start from the ground
You can't listen to a damn thing that anyone says
Just kick it wideopen and ride
Live it up live it up for today
You'll swear youve never felt so alive
Youre goin
Straight on the rocks
Poor it on slam it down on your way to the top
Your going
Straight on the rocks
we're burnin downtown on a one way ride
we're gonna live fast and die
crank it up
break out
you've got to make your own rules that what life is about
chew em up........spit em out
don't let em take you alive
come on stand up shout
You can't listen to a damn thing that anyone says
just kick it wide open and ride
liven my way is the way I survive
But it could be the last day
You see me alive
We're going
Straight on the rocks
Poor it on slam it down on your way to the top
Straight on the rocks
Yuo gotta chew up spit em out
Straight on the rocks
We're burning downtown on a one way ride
we're gonna live fast and die
lead:
Bridge: now listen up
are you sick and damn tired of trying to make every one in your life
happy
No matter what you do it seems like it's just not good enough
Well ask yourself........does doing what you do make you feel good?
Cuz if it does........then kick it wide open and ride!!!!!
Straight on the rocks
Poor it on slam it down on your way to the top
Straight on the rocks
You gotta chew em up spit em out
Straight on the rocks
repeats out
