It just smooths my mind, blocking reality.

LYRICS:
I've been quiet aside you
 While my heart in my chest shouts
 Feeling silenced and lied to
 But enough is enough now

 Don't come find me, I won't be here waiting
 I so can do it alone, you're not worth staying

 Weren't listening but now there's no way you won't hear
 There's a voice emerging in the noise so loud and clear
 And I turn it up like you turned me down, im not afraid
 Hit play, hit play
 It's the sound of walking away

 I've been drowning inside you
 while my love, it just pours out
 I've been running behind you
 But enough is enough now

 Don't come find me, I won't be here waiting
 I so can do it alone, you're not worth staying

 Weren't listening but now there's no way you won't hear
 There's a voice emerging in the noise so loud and clear
 And I turn it up like you turned me down, I’m not afraid
 Hit play, hit play
 It's the sound of walking away

Lyrics:
Closer to heaven when I'm in your arms
Feelin' your present when you're near or far
Who would've guessed we'd end up where we are
Even I had doubts

Don't tell me where we're gonna go just take me
Right now every time you're close I'm shaking
Yeah you're the only one who knows how to save me
Don't tell me where we're gonna go just take me
Just take me

No second guessin cuz I'm hooked on you
You're the exception breaking all my rules
Worse, or for better nothing less will do
Cuz all i want is you

Don't tell me where we're gonna go just take me
Right now every time you're close I'm shaking
Yeah you're the only one who knows how to save me
Don't tell me where we're gonna go just take me
Just take me

Don't tell me where you wanna go just take me
Right now every time you're close I'm shaking
Yeah you're the only one who knows how to save me
So don't tell me where you wanna go just take me

Lyrics:
I didn't mean to hurt you
When I hurt myself
It's just an empty voice screaming out for help
No I didn't mean to scare you
But I couldn't see
That when I went to hell I was taking you with me

When I close my eyes
I'm climbing in the dark
Trying not to fall apart
Sometimes I get so high
Falling is the only out I see
and I don't wanna take you down with me

(Take you down
Take you down with me)

This life is like a razor
When it cuts I bleed
But it's in my hand and I'm doin' it to me
Sometimes it's like an ocean
And it gets too deep
There's no way now you could rescue me

When I close my eyes
I'm fighting in the dark
Trying not to break your heart
Sometimes I get so high
Falling is the only out I see
And I don't wanna take you down with me

You need to let it go now
Before you drown
I know that you won't understand
But you need to let go of this hand
Cause I'm going down
And I don't wanna take you down with me

Letter:

Yo Fam,

I've been wanting to share something super personal for a while and just wasn't exactly sure how to do it. I'm at the point now where I've heard countless stories from you. Some of you have said my music changed your life, helped you through depression, addiction, a lost loved one, the list goes on. Honestly, I feel bad because you don't know how much that truly means to me, because I've been there too... In the depths.

Six years ago I overdosed on heroin. I struggled with opiate addiction from a young age. I was trapped in it, had no passion, no direction, and truly hated myself. It was such a dark time for me and my family because when it gets bad enough, hope begins to dim and there's no escaping reality. I'm not telling you to preach or say how I found some magical cure or that everyone needs to live like I do. I'm the biggest advocate for people living their own lives and spreading their own love in their own ways. I'm just sharing my story and relating because music saved my life too. With everything that has been going on with my career, I always keep reminding myself of that. My main goal with music is to try and help people overcome their struggles and also enjoy the moment.

With all that said , 'Take You Down' is about my struggles with addiction and what it can do to families and loved ones. It's more specifically about my mom, and how no matter what, she never gave up on me and always continued to see the good even though all I was doing was messing up. To anyone struggling like I did, not just with addiction but anything in life, I hope you guys can find peace in your struggles and know that anything can be overcome. I've been clean since that overdose and I owe that to finding my passion and being surrounded by the most loving people I could ever ask for. Thank you for always listening and being open. Thank you for sharing your own stories and your love of music with me. Love you all forever :)

Lyrics:
Intoxicating your kiss
Intoxicating your lips
Nobody does it like this
I find it hard to resist, oh-ooh
Feeling out of control, beautifully sold
What’s coming over me?
It’s a total eclipse of rationality

I don’t usually say this
I don’t usually play this game
Yeah, I know I’m not faded
But it kinda feels that way
I don’t usually say this
But I think I should let you know
That baby, baby I don’t, I don’t wanna go

How could I go home
When I feel like I belong in your arms
It’s like Champagne, feel it pouring in my veins
Yeah, I got myself too drunk on you to drive
So I’m crashing here tonight
Tonight, tonight
So I’m crashing here tonight

Hey, are you really this good?
Damn, are you really this good?
Baby, you’re just like a drug
I’d bottle you up if I could, oh-ooh
Feeling out of control of your chemicals
What’s coming over me?
It’s a total eclipse of rationality

I don’t usually say this
I don’t usually play this game
Yeah, I know I’m not faded
But it kinda feels that way
I don’t usually say this
But I think I should let you know
That baby, baby I don’t, I don’t wanna go

How could I go home
When I feel like I belong in your arms
It’s like Champagne, feel it pouring in my veins
Yeah, I got myself too drunk on you to drive
So I’m crashing here tonight
Tonight, tonight
So I’m crashing here tonight

How could I go home
When you’re all I wanna know?
Come on, let me see your bed
It’s too late for this to end
Yeah, I got myself too drunk on you to drive
So I’m crashing here tonight

How could I go home
When I feel like I belong in your arms
It’s like Champagne, feel it pouring in my veins
Yeah, I got myself too drunk on you to drive
So I’m crashing here tonight
Tonight, yeah I’m crashing here tonight
So I’m crashing here tonight
