[Verse 1]
Bang my head against the wall
Try to find my stride, but I trip and I fall
Losing my attention again
Yeah, I hit the bottom, but I'm on the mend
[Pre-Chorus]
I get up
Take another step, push it to the edge
I get up
Just a little more, I can see the end
I get up
Yeah, you're finished, yeah, you're mine, always win in due time
[Chorus]
You think too much, it's in my head
So I'm shaking off the rust and
You got no trust, it's in my head
So I'm shaking off the rust
I think I broke just a little bit
Walked through the fire, made it back again
Lord knows I tried everything I can
Now I'm shaking off the rust
(I'm shaking off the rust)
[Verse 2]
Bang my head against the wall
Try to hold a smile, but I'm sick of it all
Everyone with something to say
Better hold my tongue or I'll make my mistake
[Pre-Chorus]
I get up
Show 'em what I do, show 'em how it's done
I get up
Never turn it down, never gonna run, I learn
[Chorus]
You think too much, it's in my head
So I'm shaking off the rust and
You got no trust, it's in my head
So I'm shaking off the rust
I think I broke just a little bit
Walked through the fire, made it back again
Lord knows I tried everything I can
Now I'm shaking off the rust
(I'm shaking off the rust)
[Bridge]
(I'm, oh)
(I'm shaking off the rust)
[Chorus]
You think too much, it's in my head
So I'm shaking off the rust and
You got no trust, it's in my head
Now I'm shaking off the rust
I think I broke just a little bit
Walked through the fire, made it back again
Lord knows I tried everything I can
And I'm shaking off the rust
Yeah, I'm shaking off the rust

Admittedly, there were times where we got caught up in the “sophomore slump” anxiety. We weren’t sure if we’d be able to put out material that was as good, or better than our debut. Luckily, ‘Shakin” dawned on me one day, and may have been one of the most natural songs I’ve ever written. I think no...
