Earlier this year, Travis McCoy of the Gym Class Heroes, traveled to South Africa, India and the Phillipines as part of his commitment and duties as the MTV Staying Alive Ambassador. The responsibilities of this job include scouting out the different resources needed to prevent the spread of HIV and Aids. You’ll recall last year Kelly Rowland did the same thing and she was extremely moved by what she saw and experienced on that trip. Now with it being World Aids Day and all, Travie has released a song inspired by his experience and you can download it here. Travis on the project, “I met some amazing and inspiring young people – and this track is dedicated to them and their tireless and selfless commitment to the fight against HIV and AIDS.” The Unbeaten Track airs on MTV tonight.
The lyrics start off like this:
“Can’t change the world over night – but we can start by saving a life
One at a time, One at a time
So lets make history and help out those in need
One at a time, One at a time
We can change a life”
What about you guys, do you #Knowyourstatus?
