Lyrics:
How does one explain that our morals are not the same?
Am I too conservative for the right to live?
I long for love, but you treat it like some stupid game
I guess in the end you're just plain evil and sick 
Is somebody out there?
I'm way too drenched in fear 
I don't wanna face this all alone

What if that was me who had to meet the Lord?
Would they even bother
To even mourn?
But there's one thing for sure
You would not care if they took my life
Because you're empty and cold inside
So please don't waste your tears on me
You made me become your enemy

Through your fake empathy I can see right through you
You're not fooling no one, I see your true colors
We got nothing in common, I cannot defend you
Whatever we had before it's all over
I knew that you'd hate me
I hide myself because you've gone crazy
Guess I will have to do this all alone

What if that was me who had to meet the Lord?
Would they even bother
To even mourn?
But there's one thing for sure
You would not care if they took my life
Because you're empty and cold inside
So please don't waste your tears on me
You made me become your enemy

Hello it's me, I'm yelling into the sun
Begging for someone, anyone 
To give me a reason why everyone's so fake?
Never wanted to be known, especially when all is at stake
Feeling like my life is on the line
Can't even speak my mind, because I might die
From a bullet that is shot with pure hatred
Right through the head. Do you want me dead?
With all the drama in my day to day life and the screen
Can somebody tell me what this means?
I don't wanna be the guy who acts like a victim
But I still wish somebody would listen
I know way too many people got their life cut short
What if I was the next to never reach 24?
Wish somebody knew I cannot do this alone

What if that was me who had to meet the Lord?
Would they even bother
To even mourn?
But there's one thing for sure
You would not care if they took my life
Because you're empty and cold inside
So please don't waste your tears on me
You made me become your enemy

What if that was me?

I'm an independent song writer and artist from California. I predominately rap, but I sing too. Most of the lyrics I write are based on true stories that happen through out my life, or my internal conflicts. I only do this as a hobby, so I don't really promote as much as I should.

Chris Birkett Bio 

Chris Birkett is a multi-talented, award winning producer, singer/songwriter, composer and sound engineer. His music collaborations with A-list international artists like Sinead O'Connor, Alison Moyet, Dexys Midnight Runners, Talking Heads, The Pogues, Bob Geldof, Quincy Jones, Mel Brooks and Steve Earle have sold over 100 million records and earned four Canadian Junos, a Grammy, a Polaris Music Prize and three international AMPEX Golden Reel Awards for excellence in the music business.
Chris is no stranger to Canadian music, having co-produced five award winning albums for the legendary Buffy Sainte-Marie, including her comeback album “Coincidence and Likely Sto-ries” (1992) and the Juno winning “Running for the Drum” (2009). He received a Canadian Screen Award for best sound on the 2022 feature biograph “Buffy Sainte Marie: Carry It On”.
His career began as a guitarist, playing in London clubs before touring with Memphis artists Rufus Thomas, Ann Peebles and King Floyd. At 23, Chris was performing with the pop group Love Affair, whose song "Everlasting Love" ruled the UK charts. The following year, he joined the band Omaha Sheriff who had just signed a major recording deal with Tony Visconti, man-ager of Good Earth Records and producer for David Bowie and the Moody Blues.
With Visconti as a mentor, Chris expanded his career to include producing, engineering and mixing many UK and international hits including Sinead O'Connor's #1 song “Nothing Com-pares 2 U”. His London studio was a beehive of activity that was rated #2 in the world on Bill-board's top studio charts.  At the same time, Chris' own single “Where Do We Go From Here?”(1992) was picked by Ed Bicknell (Dire Straits' manager) to play alongside U2, Peter Gabriel, Bob Marley, Tears for Fears and Queen on Polygram's “One Voice One Love” al-bum.
In 1993, Chris left the UK for France and built a recording studio inside his chateau near Bor-deaux. There he produced albums with the Buena Vista Social Club and other world-class musicians, including Etran Finatawa, whose debut album was nominated for a BBC Radio best world music award. In 2006, he moved his studio to Paris, where he released his second album, “Freedom” and received growing acclaim for his work with world musicians like Alger-ian sensation Ali Amran.
In 2012, Chris moved to Toronto and finished work on his third album "Be Creative" featuring performances from many talented Canadian artists including Glen Milchem (Blue Rodeo) and Rick Emmett (Triumph). Now a Canadian citizen, Chris' latest album credits include co-pro-ducer of Buffy Sainte-Marie's Polaris and Juno award winning album “Power in the Blood” (2016) and the recent Juno winner, “Medicine Songs” (2017), both for True North Records. In 2019 he released 11:11, his fourth album under the band name The Free Spirits. 

Chris is currently creating new recordings for a range of talented Canadian and European mu-sicians and mentoring and producing Inuit artists through the Hitzmaker's label. He's also im-mersed in his own upcoming albums and has been releasing singles that include “Precious Love” for his documentary filmmaker wife Joan Prowse, “2022” an upbeat refllection on 2 years of social isolation, “Icky Cottage Blues” a summertime sing-along song with his fun-lov-ing band The Happy Campers, and “Everyone Deserves a Home”, which earned a provincial community service award and a spot on Global News with Susan Hay.
