Originally I was writing this song as a joke almost, just trying to be funny, but then when I played it a few times I actually liked it. So I decided to make it less deliberately funny and record a quick demo version :)

Lyrics (Language warning, kids)
Last time I felt this way
I stared at the sun all day
to hide your face 
from ever gracing my eyes again
then I swallowed every song I wrote you
forgot the chords and key
I choked on every sentance
What I wouldn't give to forget this

You were never busy on sunday, were you darling

You're a whore, and there's something you ought to know
that I am way too small a man to forgive and let it go
so hold on tight for one hell of a ride
and find yourself some other asshole to fuck you to sleep at night

Tongue in cheek is just a figure of speech
but you took it to a new level with every boy on your street
"Isn't she sweet?"
Daddy's little angel always dressed to impress
but you never wear anything under your catholic school dress
he would have never guessed
And I hated all your friends anyway
Always saying shit behind my back and calling me gay
as if that was an insult in this day and age
And no I never liked your musical tastes 
Pierce the Veil is nothing but a waste of space on my Ipod
Except for "the balcony scene"
"And Don't React when I tell you
the bright lights mean nothing"
And now you mean nothing

You're a whore, and there's something you ought to know
that I am way too small a man to forgive and let it go
so hold on tight for one hell of a ride
and find yourself some other asshole to fuck you to sleep at night
'cause you're a whore, and there's something you ought to know
that I'm way to small a man to forgive and let it go
so hold on tight, 'cause I'm speaking my mind
hope you find some other asshole and I hope that he fucks you up right.

Speaking My Mind (Demo)

It took as long for you to listen to this as it did for me to record it. 
If my tongue is too quick for your ears (ladies, I'm single) here's the lyrics;

I'd throw my hands up if I wasn't playing guitar 
I'd make a beat drop if I fucking thought I was hard
It's aussie hip hop, so put your accent on thick
and say cunt if you cunts are all sick of this shit 

Take this from a white kid
rap music ain't no killers and thugs gig, that's fucking deceptive
it's cushy middle class suburbans with some nice digs
on their macbook with garage band talkin' like an egotist
They're all dipshits, mocking a poetic trade 
using shitty rhymes and pickup lines
in songs to try and get laid 
so be ashamed, if you use curses and write Kerser in cursive
all over you fucking pencil case 
mum and dad are my only fan base
chicken wing the only chick that I taste
I'll back off if you get up in my face
then badmouth you on facebook and myspace
OH SHIT! Yeah I'm honest
rarely keep my word when my word's been promised
Got a brother James and another one Thomas
I don't give a flying fuck if you did or didn't want it
the information's been delivered
it's your choice what you're gonna do with it
Stand there limp wrist fucking lily livered 
Take a swing if you want and I'll be right here ibid

Put my hands up if I wasn't playing guitar 
I'd make a beat drop if I fucking thought I was hard
it's aussie hiphop so put your accent on thick
and say cunt if you cunts are all sick of this shit
I'd throw my hands up if I wasn't playing guitar
I'd smack a bitch up like my name was Jimmy Ricard
So tell Hilltop, 3-6 & Dialetrix
that they can hop off the soapbox and suck on my dick

They all spit shit about how hard they used to have it
stretching out their doll check to pay the drug habit
rolling in a commadore with the wife-beater on 
singing all the same songs and still thinking they're a maverick
and you know what really gets me ticked
is when they rhyme about their dick and how it's 10 inches thick
thinking chicks get wet or are otherwise impressed that their 
entire albums lyrics took a matter of seconds
nah, that shit ain't right
you've got kids looking up to you, you stand in the limelight
so go ahead, tell em to act like you fools
I'll gladly stay unsigned 'cause your shit's disgraceful

Introducing... - A Rap By Jack

This is a cover of Wooden Heart by Listener. I was screwing around with my loop pedal and decided to record this :)It's a bit distorted/clippy but I'm lazy

Wooden Heart - Listener

A return to the poorly recorded, minimally mixed and overall low quality 5 minute bedroom recordings I'm so used to making :D

This is The Simple Act Of Giving Up by INK. It's a cover, if you couldn't tell by the slight american accent I can't help but put on when I sing some parts. Anyway, I do hope you enjoy it, I'll make something better sooon, I promise

The Simple Act Of Giving Up

I wrote this song for Polly. She's a lovely person and a good friend.
I also had a taco the day I first played this song, taco's are also lovely and good friends to have.
I wrote it for Polly, but it's dedicated to tacos.


Polly

Original song, mainly just practicing falsetto in this rec, can and will do better in the future - eeeeeeevvveeennnnttttttuuuuuaallllllyyyyyy

Off The Wall demo

Your Birthday Song - Go Radio Cover

I always loved this poem/track by Sage Francis, off his 2002 Personal Journals record, but I felt like the backing track was alienating a lot of non-hip-hop listeners from the beauty of the message.

I also always loved the instrumental tracks put out by Grieves, and it just so happens Breath Of Air (The backing track, off Winter and the Wolves, 2014) fits the mood and meter of this poem perfectly (imo)

Anyway guys, if you liked this and haven't checked out either artist, hit up Sage Francis and Grieves, check out their tunes, two huge influences on my music. 



Inherited Scars Cover

A recording of a poem/song found in the library of Victoria University. The unknown author's deep emotional stanza's and lyrical craftsmanship inspired me to record a cover of this incredible piece.

I know my voice and equipment can never live up to the quality of this artwork, but I hope my humble interpretation is able to resonate with those who hear it as much as it resonated with me. 

Love in E Minor (a cover in C)

20 minute cover of  Mansions' track Seven Years, from the album Dig Up The Dead

Attempted bass and drums by using DI and acoustic guitar tapping/pitch shift. Could do better, but didn't want to spend that long on this track.

Seven Years (Mansions Cover)

I don't like mixing tracks or doing seperate vocal/guitar tracks. So have this.

Elephant

I'm Jack - I play guitar and sing, sometimes I get the motivation to record and post them here.
