More New Music Tomorrow: Challenge Accepted

Continuing with my band Second Player Score's once-a-week new music drops, tomorrow will see the debut of "Challenge Accepted," the second track from the Summer Suite and the 4-D album as a whole.

The song is an upbeat, no-frills pop-punk tune in the vein of Green Day and other similar bands about, well, accepting challenges. It's the sunny, optimistic beginning to the story behind the album (before things start to go sideways, as they always do). Of course, you could always interpret it independently from the story and just apply its positive message to your own life circumstances. Here are the lyrics:

Minding my own business when today you came along

Offering an opportunity to prove the doubters wrong

You said, "You don't have to do it," but I said, "Oh, I insist"

Because that's the kind of challenge that I just cannot resist

Bring it on

People always have their doubts, but they don't bother me

When they say that something can't be done, I tend to disagree

I don't look at obstacles and get discouraged or depressed

I just find a way to persevere and keep on doing my best

Bring it on

Living in the moment while pursuing some big dream

That I thought might be impossible or so it may have seemed

But the harder something is, the more I want to make it real

You may think I'm being stubborn, but, well, that's just how I feel

Bring it on!
