I got back to Texas, went to my studio, and finished writing the song in about an hour. We all must roll with the punches in life, especially when things get difficult. This song was meant to help lift your spirits and inspire you to continue to push ahead, never stop trying to achieve your goals, and never give up,” said Perez.“Pushing Ahead” was produced by Grammy-Award Winning producer Robert “Bobbo” Gomez III with a guest feature by Tejano Rapper Zeus.
