Dont Cry For Me
• Written by KwikShots
KwikShots's Notes
Listen to track as reading. Childhood was the most emotionally notalgic time for me for good and bad, and the times are emotionally and deeply described in this song. Its on a personal level so some may be extremely difficult understand, but know it all has meaning...every last word
//(V.1)
Riding in this car, these headphones are my home
They bring good and bad karma
Everything i been through, it brought me lots of
Strength and hope
"I think his door is closed"
"Check on him?" "No!"
I want time without family and none of my bros
I want a time to put the present behind
Open the past, let the vast rest of my life fall in line
Its about time someone gives me a chance to understand ME
In all my life i never got to sit and figure it out, so please
Give me this time to just breathe
Exit the house grab those keys
Lock me in, let me bleed
Let me see whats inside
Within this time i have no rules to abide by
No stress, let this emotion fly by
A chaotic life tries
To bring me down like a drive by
On a dark night
This flame in my heart is burning bright
And stage lights gon give me stage fright when im growin
I know it
So i need to cherish the time that i have and hold it
Because when its over its over, and i know this
i just hope that
//(Chorus)
You dont cry if i dont make it
This world im tryin my best to change it
With the creators help im gonna recreate it
So all u can do is hope
Choose time wise, no laughs or jokes
Future baby and children we could go broke
If i put my full interest in a lost cause ill choke
But i need people to show me the ropes
When im losin this hope
I just hope you know
Truth was in each and every verse that i wrote

Excuse my manners
I must leave, rid myself of this mental cancer
I aint a guitarist, no breakdancer
Im influential, with my feelings im a freelancer
Flashback
Ive brought the past back
It haunts me to the very end of this long and jagged railroad track
I cant shoot it back
It lives in my heart like a replayin track
"Whats bothering u Jake?" He's still in there yellin and cussin
My brothers and parents are fussin
I cant even hide whats been happenin from my cousins
This goin on since i was seven, two thousand and seven
To around eleven
Just pray for me and DONT LISTEN
I want u all to envision a vision
Where u can stop seein me at a distance
And who i am is clear with precision
Someone threw away the key and im locked up in this prison
I feel as if im on a mission
But the only mission im winnin
Is hurtin people i love, i hope im forgiven
I left my past self, thats some good riddance
I lost my shine like an out of date ornament
I was born this
These sentences are God given
And some should be God forgiven
But its my choice to know best of how im livin
When am i finished?
I dont want to be but my future could be diminished
If i dont diminish these thoughts of a cranium blemish
That will once and for all finish
Who i am, knock me im the dirt, im dead without HOPE
So please, i HOPE u wont
Thats right i HOPE u dont
//
//(Chorus)
You dont cry if i dont make it
This world im tryin my best to change it
With the creators help im gonna recreate it
So all u can do is hope
Choose time wise, no laughs or jokes
Future baby and children we could go broke
If i put my full interest in a lost cause ill choke
But i need people to show me the ropes
When im losin this hope
I just hope you know
Truth was in each and every verse that i wrote

Stress is my silent killer
Most of my life has been filler
Of these beats i only want to be a killer
But wheres my motivation
Im tired of holdin patience
In my mind im spacin
Im running track in my head, sweatin, drenched as im racin
These shoes in the morn i forget how to lace em
These demons i turn away from, cant face em
My true purpose is like a second person, i cant place him
When the other one comes i mentally mace him
These emotions every time that i taste em
I gag
I never wanted to brag
But when my pants sag it makes me feel down with the dumps
Get that there? Everyone throw out your trunks
Start new with me, say no to these punks
Oh wait, the people are shootin
The pics are flashin, the pens are movin
I dont know what im doin
God help me!! Save me!!! Nothin about this is soothin
I just want to go back to how it was
Backyard, grass mixed with mud
A treehouse, a dog that rolls daily in crud
Cuz thats what he called it right? I aint forgettin, im remembering with all my might
Six rooms
On the pavement starin up at the moon
Then the mattress sinks and i end up drownin in gloom
Reputation makes those girls no longer swoon
Its gone now
No more swings, karaeoke blarin loud
Its all i hear, its come down in a shroud
Its snowin, doors frostin, black eyed peas "play it loud"
Garage is locked up
And so am i , life was tossed up and forgotten to this day
I have no more words to say
I lived in that pool for days
And now im in a pool of my own, cant get out so i pray
That the day i die is light years away
And in that time ill have somethin useful to say
But hey
//
//(Chorus)
I hope you dont cry if i dont make it
This world im tryin my best to change it
With the creators help im gonna recreate it
So all u can do is hope
Choose time wise, no laughs or jokes
Future baby and children we could go broke
If i put my full interest in a lost cause ill choke
But i need people to show me the ropes
When im losin this hope
I hope you know
That truth was in each and every verse that i wrote
