Never Wash Away
• Written by JakeRBaldi
JakeRBaldi's Notes
I've had this song for like 3 years and never got around to recording it. It's a throwaway song pretty much, since I've gotten a lot better, so finally deciding to make it public Starts 22 seconds in. Feedback appreciated.

When things just get too hard
And you feel like you've been scarred.
Please just follow me
And I guarantee you'll see
That tomorrow's another day
I promise it won't be so gray
Theres nothing else to say
Just never wash away
//[Verse One: JRB]
I've been trying to sleep for an hour now, but it won't happen.
I'll just continue dabbing my tears away with a napkin.
I've taken twenty Aspirin shit I'm higher than Aladdin.
The night is young and I'm already extra sad and
Sometimes you just wonder if shit can or can't ever brighten.
I can't sleep now, I'm certain I'll wake up violently frightened.
Maybe I'll wake up like Buddha and suddenly be enlightened.
But for now I'll keep my emotions in this rap that I've been writing.
This life is a blessing but man, depression is setting.
I find myself not sleeping and constantly sweating.
Too many fake people in this world have done me wrong.
I thought I oughta talk about the issue in this song.
Drake is happy saying what a time to be alive.
What about the others who just hope for their demise?
A new person came into my life like no fucking way.
And she told me to never ever ever wash away.

I thought switching schools would help, but it only got worse.
Cause the friends I thought I had are now starting to disperse.
I have a curse and not even a nurse can help me now.
If I could just reverse, I'd just converse to people wow.
All I really need is someone to answer my calling.
But why they stalling? Can't they see I'm constantly falling?
I had a crew and when I asked to hang they'd always come through.
But no one wants to chill and go through my Netflix queue.
I'm even drinking alone my parents tell me its a mistake.
What was Jake's mistake in life to deserve this for peet's sake?
I just woke up having to evacuate for this earthquake.
This headache is killing me I think I might just pop eight.
I don't usually take xannies but this is to alleviate.
The pain that's going through my brain it's just become too great.
I could use a break from the drama that I've been drawn into.
What was it you told me to do? I should start listening to you.

You're right maybe I need to brighten up and look to tomorrow.
Nobody was ever productive just drowning in their sorrow.
I see the light in the dark now it's shining quite bright tonight.
Times get though but King Kendrick says it'll be alright.
Let this song be something you come to in your dark times.
You're better than those people, just open your eyes sometimes.
If you see your friend in need of help, help him up you know.
All I can do is make a song with a message so here we go.
To all the people listening to this, live your life headstrong.
Don't ever let other people tell you whats right and whats wrong.
Don't tag along with the wrong dog, it's not where you belong.
Cause sooner or later, they're teasing your ass all year long.
If you bully someone else, man that crap is just pathetic.
Karma is gonna come back in life and you're gonna regret it.
Life is hard, the sooner you figure that out the better.
You can't wash away just under a little bad weather.
