This song came out of all that. Leave That Ego At The Door is a saying that's been around a while. I decided to use that as part of the hook for this song.

Loved the way you put Brent right in the middle of it all. Thanks for you hard work and sharing with us!

It should be on the "Controlled Substance" list, but it would probably be available Over The Counter (OTC) through Canadian pharmacies.
