letra de j.a.c.k. (feat. luz) - malaki (ireland)

[verse]
just another curious kid
trusted others alive but never truly lived
living pain inside for the sins he did
committed, permitted to insanity
the odd white lie, the fib
caught in the midst
why try to give when
demons heaving, leaving no time to rid
placed the odd bet
but this was his last bid
there’s something about a man being manly
’cause jack needed a hand but that was never handy
gold chain as a present from his aunties purse
now that chain reflects his pain
his only bit of worth
a curse since birth
what’s worse his work didn’t need him
said jack ‘you gotta go, no time for feelings’
made his last penny
washed down his grievance with a henny and lime
i just wished you could’ve seen him in time
i wish his mother could’ve sang him one last lullaby

[chorus]
i keep thinking
maybe i could’ve stopped you
and seen the signs
so i could just hold you more time
so i could just hold you more time
and tell you baby
everything is gonna be fine
what if we had more precious time?
maybe i could’ve changed your mind
what if we had more precious time?
maybe i could’ve changed your mind

[verse]
committed suicide
committed a sin through religion’s eyes
committed to the system but the system lies
admitted through decision as his mother cries
father wanted answers: ‘admit it’
he tries
but crying at the wind only falls to demise
falling to a sin that he did when he was nine
haunted him for ten plus years and he was trying
flaunted his new reebok gear, still denying
lathered in a lie with a smile
“i’m feeling fine”
in actuality, his personality shifted
drugs gave a fantasy at times he may have missed it
escape the mind that he once knew
replace the thoughts he could not choose
he would dance with death
by the steps in the dark
but death had other plans
’cause he was his partner from the start

[verse]
caress his mother’s hands in his dreams in the stars
but sleep was a commodity to the boy in his heart
gold chain, sterling on his finger
old pain left him curling, he would linger
nocturnal at heart
’cause he was always dark inside
eternal feelings left apart
’cause he could never reconcile
so what choice had he, in this day and age
a friend to take a knee
to pave the way
enslaved through ravaged nights in revelry
thought another fight would set him free
allegedly
well that was wrong and so was he
his mother and father were too busy
as society would see him as another sc-m of the street
when this boy had dreams of being free
shackled to the chains how could this be
no other hope
he couldn’t cope
his last decision was to grab that rope
so take a step and take a breath
’cause the last one on earth is the most daring one yet
this boy knew his worth but society had doomed him
he wanted it to work but no trying it had ruined him
the boy had a view of the most beautiful skies
finally set free it was true he feels fine
no longer tied down by the time as a slave
now the boy is at one with his limestone grave
