Dear Emilie, Admittedly I aint been the best boyfriend lately im kinda shaky n these drugs they kinda make me a little flakey so just walk away and make me a better man, cause with these drugs i understand i dont really wanna lose my friends to this but im just helpless to mental bliss i dont even really want help with this but i admit im kinda helpless so please God help us im sorry if i missed your birthday last night, i had a date with my crack pipe i dont mean to be a shitty person on purpose but when you have no purpose you feel really worthless so i skipped my sons basketball game n i bet hes glad i never came n just the same you bet that i still miss him wish i could come over and spend some time with him just to feel with him but i think he'd hate it his father was belated you dont even have to say it cause i hear it ever day, so like i said just walk away n i hope to see the day when my luck will maybe change cause im a person just the same and my dream is not to stay under signs and walk ways askin people for change, feel like i bother them everyday. Ima try'n get some help with this, just wait but maybe im a crooked tree just tryin to grow straight. ------------ I'm sorry for me I've got a lot on my plate Maybe I'm a crooked tree just tryina grow straight ------------ Didn't learn my lesson the last few times so i gotta find my black light smoke out of my hash pipe forget the mess from last night where did I put that flashlight confused all of the damn time, I think i lost my damn mind and its about time too cause after you left, everything followed suite. and Im not even blaming you, but when i wave in the street i wish you would wave too. n lately i really try and make it to the meetings but i get cold feet n end em before they begin i got a problem, im the first to admit it i burned my whole life and our relationship within it cant even go to school just to see my son, cause when I do they just call 911 I've never been so embarrassed as my son looks up with fear n doesn't know his own parent my heart can hardly bear it I hope you try and understand the tears of this broken man so say hello to my son Ben n when I shave I still look just like him. I hope you had a really good birthday, hope you know i miss you in the worst way Not to sound like a psycho, but i love you, and im sorry. Sincerely, Michael ------------ I'm sorry for me I've got a lot on my plate Maybe I'm a crooked tree just tryina grow straight ------------

Jack and jill went up a hill to fetch a pale of water little did jill know about the ring kind jack had bought her And like the hill excitement builds in jacks ol jolly heart For he loved her more than he knew before, thier marriage fell apart Jack and jill built on the hill a house of style n splendor Jack employed designing toys to spray the boys with water Jill would stay, inside all day, but for her man so proud, For everyday the bills are paid, she often boasted loud. Jack and jill lived on that hill for 20 years of laughter But when jill found jack sleeps around He never went for water So now poor jack, lives in a flat, n drinks enough for two And poor ol jill lives on that hill where all their love had grew. Chorus: Jack and jill went up a hill to fetch a pale of water, little did jill know about the ring kind jack had bought her, And like the hill excitement builds in jacks ol jolly heart For he loved her more than he knew before thier marriage fell apart Jack and jill over the hill found out about thier daughter To jills surprise, and jacks wide eyes a gift that god had brought her Her bellys big, cookin a kid, She hopes she'll have his eyes. It still stings she sits and thinks of jack and all his lies. But loves a bond thats never gone so jack is back to stay. and Tuesday night jill went to light the candles on his cake To jacks suprise , and jills demise A gift the devil brung Little hilly jilly died of cancer in her lung Jack still will visit the hill where her burried his wife n' Little did he know that she would go that tuesday night So now poor jack, lives in a flat, and he put down the cup his little girl is his whole world, he watches her grow up Looks in her eyes tries not to cry, cause shes just like her mom And jack regrets the love he kept, now that jill is gone. Jack and jill had climbed that hill not knowing what theyd find, like A friend husband and lover, more like partners for a life. Matter of fact, you can ask jack about that darkened day When he fell down, broke marriage vows, and now his conscience pays He finds it hard to disregard the shards of disappointment reminded by her eyes, the curse of cancer has no ointment. Tuesdays at eight jack Goes to see His wife hoping shell rise, The thing jack lacks is just the chance to try and make it right. Two weeks had passed and so did jack, died of a broken heart He loved her more than he knew before, their marriage fell apart. Chorus: Jack and jill went up a hill to fetch a pale of water, Jill fell down and broke her crown and jack came tumbling after And like the hill jack now is still, cause life will break your heart For he loved her more than he knew before their marriage fell apart.

about

I worked incredibly hard on this album over the past 2 years( 2011-2013). Each song means so much to me and represents a certain time and place in my life. Each of them helped me to grow and keep moving when things got hard. It was through the process of writing this album that I really became who i am today, and fell in love with Hip Hop. Many of these tracks are very personal, and even the ones that aren't about me have a sliver of me in them. I am releasing these songs not in hopes to stir up dust from the past, but rather to lay down the past behind me. I hope that my music can touch, and help others as much as it has touched and helped me.

Heres to the ability to adapt, and grow. I'm thankful for the chance.

please pay a few dollars if you can afford it!

Huge thanks to my amazing friends for always being stoked to hear my latest track, and really encouraging me in my writing. Thanks to my friend/producer Jesse Northey, for all of his hard work, on the album. He recorded the whole album and sings back up vox in the song How Far.
