MICHAEL GUY BOWMAN - Get Tough bandcamp ⇨ bowman.bandcam... spotify ⇨ sptfy.com/ihSB Music / video by Michael Guy Bowman Drums by Bijan Eghtesady michaelguybowm... / mguybowman
The video for this and Burnout do wonders of putting me further in the mood Gravity Makes The Flame Rise invokes in me. Bowman's energy is very much felt all while the visuals overwhelm me despite their simplicity. Simply stunning.
Lyrics: Don't talk to me about livin' the dream I keep dreaming but I'm not sleeping sound Don't talk to me about living on hand That's when you're livin' on hand-me-downs I feel like I must be losing my grip Clinging to memories, but trying to be hip All of the other ways I could've gone instead I could be a lawyer, or a doctor, or dead It's a long time livin' Longer fore you're living it up And every chance I'm given I've thought 'bout givin' it up There are bills to be paid There is love to be made There are treacherous waters that we all must wade And you can beg on your hands and knees but it's isn't enough You gotta get tough! [Short Instrumental Break] Don't talk to me about beating the odds I'm only standing while the world beats me down Don't talk to me about rising above When you run with the underground I feel like I must be losing my mind Opening windows, closing the blinds All the other ways I should've gone instead No matter where I go I can't get gotta my head It's a long time livin' Longer fore you're living it up [Livin' it up, livin' it up] And every chance I'm given I've thought 'bout givin' it up [Givin' it up, givin' it up] There are bills to be paid There is love to be made There are treacherous waters that we all must wade And you can beg for mercy please But it isn't enough You gotta get tough And little bit stronger Oooh, And just a little bit wiser Oooh, For just a little bit longer Ooooh, You'll get a little bit higher [Majestic Instrumental Jammin'] It's a long time livin' Longer fore you're living it up [Livin' it up, livin it up] And every chance I'm given I've thought 'bout givin' it up [Givin' it up, givin' it up] There are bills to be paid There is love to be made There are treacherous waters that we all must wade And you can beg on your hands and knees but it isn't enough You gotta get tough!
@Chip Wiseman That's fair. There are certain qualities about it that made me think it's a little too imperfect for something like that, but looking at it again it seems like more of it follows his contours a little too well for your average rotoscope job. TY for the probably explanation!
Hey Bowman, it must have at least been a thought in the last 10 years, but why don't you do covers? I'm sure you have a reason, but you could totally get even a bit more exposure with covers of popular songs. - Wandering thoughts of a big fan.
Also known as: POV: Micheal Guy Bowman beats you up for 4 minutes straight.
The visuals are astonishing.
I wish Mr. Bowman's talent would rub off me
You can really tell that’s him, just by the body movement. Love that. So much personality in this music, this video, this man.
one of my favorite tracks from the new album!!!

Lyrics:
Don't talk to me about livin' the dream
I keep dreaming but I'm not sleeping sound
Don't talk to me about living on hand
That's when you're livin' on hand-me-downs
I feel like I must be losing my grip
Clinging to memories, but trying to be hip
All of the other ways I could've gone instead
I could be a lawyer, or a doctor, or dead
It's a long time livin'
Longer fore you're living it up
And every chance I'm given I've thought 'bout givin' it up
There are bills to be paid
There is love to be made
There are treacherous waters that we all must wade
And you can beg on your hands and knees but it's isn't enough
You gotta get tough!
[Short Instrumental Break]
Don't talk to me about beating the odds
I'm only standing while the world beats me down
Don't talk to me about rising above
When you run with the underground
I feel like I must be losing my mind
Opening windows, closing the blinds
All the other ways I should've gone instead
No matter where I go I can't get gotta my head
It's a long time livin'
Longer fore you're living it up [Livin' it up, livin' it up]
And every chance I'm given I've thought 'bout givin' it up [Givin' it up, givin' it up]
There are bills to be paid
There is love to be made
There are treacherous waters that we all must wade
And you can beg for mercy please
But it isn't enough
You gotta get tough
And little bit stronger
Oooh, And just a little bit wiser
Oooh, For just a little bit longer
Ooooh, You'll get a little bit higher
[Majestic Instrumental Jammin']
It's a long time livin'
Longer fore you're living it up [Livin' it up, livin it up]
And every chance I'm given I've thought 'bout givin' it up [Givin' it up, givin' it up]
There are bills to be paid
There is love to be made
There are treacherous waters that we all must wade
And you can beg on your hands and knees but it isn't enough
You gotta get tough!
