Der jahrzehntelanger Pretty Maids Frontmann RONNIE ATKINS veröffentlicht heute `If You Can Dream It (You Can Do It)` und damit den zweiten Song seiner dritten Soloscheibe “Trinity“, die am 13. Oktober in den Läden stehen wird. Den Titelsong hatte er bereits vor einem Monat. herausgebrtacht.
RONNIE ATKINS erklärt zum kommenden Album und seiner durch die Krebskrankheit entstandenen Situation:
“I guess I have a different perspective on life these days than I had 4 years ago and I embrace everyday with all that goes with it. Let me add to this that working which in my case is writing songs and performing on stage is what keeps me going I guess. I like to focus on the positive aspects of life and indulge myself in things that I really wanna do by heart.”
“I think the album might have turned out a bit heavier than the previous ones, since most of the songs were written on guitar this time, but above all it’s still very melodic. Lyrically it’s pretty much about what’s going on in the world today and that’s what inspires me. A lot of the songs are pretty personal too and I’m trying to squeeze in a bit of optimism into it as well.”

Lyrics:
Another day another penny in the wishing well
Another aim another blow and you come undone
You seek a miracle you’re pleading for a pinnacle
A shot of fortune you just wanna be someone
But you’re like getting nowhere
You know something better lies ahead
If you can dream it you can do it
You’ll go all the way
You’ll discover a side of yourself you don’t know
If you believe it you’ll go through it
Have a little faith
And you know don’t ever let go never let go
You wan’t the swagger and a flashy personality
You’ve got to delve into your self confidence
What really matters is the power and ability
To resurrect restore and reinvent yourself
Gotta dream with ambition
Be the man for the mission
Chorus
Don’t set sails without yourself
Be the captain of your soul
Spin the wheel of fortune and let it roll
Chorus
