A few weeks after hearing Brother Fred's Story, I realized that there was a song stirring in my heart. It seemed as if there was something hovering around inside my head just waiting to jump out. I had been concerned with all the drastic, anti-American, anti-Liberty policy and rhetoric “Coming down the Pike” and I had to get just the right melody and lyric down to tell how I've been feeling. Everyone who hears the song seems to feel like I do and they seem to take ownership of the message and calling to “Make My Stand” right along with me. I didn't set out to write and anthem for any particular movement but there's a great deal about this song that rings true with many of my brothers and sisters all across the US…It’s time to tell the tyrants we’ve simply had enough!

Now this song may have been written about a country gentlemen trying to hang on to his little piece of America in rural Tennessee but it’s really YOUR story and it’s MY story too. We’ve been lied to and conned by almost every politician and major media source out there. They’ve promised truth and transparency but given nothing but cloak and dagger… (Right in the back!)

Many of us feel as though we are standing at the bottom of the mountain watching an avalanche begin to trickle down the slopes. An overwhelming feeling of helplessness beats at the door of our consciousness and we momentarily pause to wonder… Should we freeze in fear, do we run like mad, or do we stand and fight? That’s an easy answer right? Not for everyone. That’s why I believe this song and the general grassroots movement embodied in the lyric move people to action. Some people are overwhelmed and afraid. Many have no idea what to do about the coming trials but there are some time-tested truths that still remain self-evident! Yes, it's time to Make my Stand!
