Introducing to DTube...The straight ahead rock-n-roll of Sweet Ascent! My Life is about the resistance to the forces of corporate music that attempts to homogenize, standardize, clone and blandly prepackage bands and American Music.
My Life --lyrics by Sweet Ascent
Write a sad song and let them know
A reputation you have to uphold
What if I say no?
Told how to dress, how to sound, how to make it
But this is my life you can take it or leave it
Stand up if you're tired of being held down
And I stand up for you not just myself
I'm living my life the way I've always wanted to
My life's not a commodity a traded good
If you're with me let it echo through a crowded room
My life doesn't belong to you
I lost my subtlety along the way
I'm sorry if these words are too in your face
I've got no time for complicated explanations
I'll say it again maybe this time you'll listen
Stand up if you're tired of being held down
And I stand up for you not just myself
I'm living my life the way
I've always wanted to
My life's not a commodity a traded good
If you're with me let it echo through a crowded room
My life doesn't belong to you
From Lawrence, Kansas, Sweet Ascent is a four-piece rock band comprised of Jordan Rebman, Bobby Louden, Jacob Dorn, and Allex Wilson. The group has undergone many changes both in membership and style to become the ensemble they are today. Sweet Ascent has always been a band that isn't focused on the past, rather one that encompasses the present and is always chasing the future. Following the release of their debut LP 'Take It Or Leave It', it's clear that the group has embraced their future sound and is not letting up.
