lyrics

Before I Self Destruct.

(Intro)
(JackCity) Yo, JackCity, personified, yea man, lets Go.

(Verse 1)
(JackCity) Its all i ever wanted/ to stay strong/ just a little bit of solid/ to sing a song so that i could get acknowledged/ stop looking at my life an hating what I've accomplished/ but been proud of what i am/ knocking down all the barriers that I've found/ I'm one of a kind like a class of compounds/ I'm acid/ douse me to get me down/ I'm corrosive when I'm hanging around/ hazardous/ its a must/ when you feel like i do trust/ this is my achilles heel/ a pain that'll never truly heal/ its to real/ its how i feel/ i expected too much/ (i guess it is the hope that kills you off)/ I've sat down so many times/ a serial urge to right these serious rhymes/ yo I've avoided every time/ its likely that ill cry/ but its crucial that i repossess what i feel is mine/ its my right to exercise these lines.

(Chorus)
(JackCity) Save me your bother/ cause I've forgot you now/ save me your bother/ your not gunna let me down/ save me your bother/ ill always remember how/ easy it was for you to leave me.
x2

(Verse 2)
(JackCity) You know I'm a full grown man now/ how many times can i let this just pan out/ my feelings running far too thick now/ i don't like how you just back down/ play the victim when its your thats vicious malicious i say everything out loud/ its impossible to argue this out/ cause your unwilling/ your unforgiving/ only see what your thinking/ i don't believe in/ any of this bullshit/ (please don't disrespect me)/ this is informal/ as much as people would like to think that its not at all though/ but its only Jack that fully understands his vocals/ so if i decide to put this out/ i do it/ fully without a doubt/ no doubt/ don't speak to me/ about what this track means or who its aimed to be at/ my pens pushing through the pad/ I'm loosing my shit/ its time to finish this track before it becomes something other than the therapy that it is.

(Chorus)
(JackCity) Save me your bother/ cause I've forgot you now/ save me your bother/ your not gunna let me down/ save me your bother/ ill always remember how/ easy it was for you to leave me.
x2

(Outro)
(JackCity) I hope i help someone through the pain/ so you can relate and you don't have to wade and wait/ until your idiot realises what gone away/ its my right to document what I've got to say.
