Jack in a box
Jack was a boy who struggled in school
Getting suspended ...for breaking the rules
He would wonder the streets and rob out the shops
Take milk from the doorsteps and lead from roof tops
His mum was an addict his dad wasn't there
Troubled young Jack got put in to care
Stuck in the system.. Jack's just a number
From pillar to post now split from his brother
He's mixing with bad kids.. they're older than him
For once in Jack's life He feels he fits in
The men buy him clothes and sample him flavours
Paying him bits for doing small favours
Top of the world now Jack's living nice
Until he lands up in prison gets hooked on spice
So it's prison and street life for the next few years
Receding hairline and jailhouse ink tears
Jack wants to change but he doesn't know how
He feels tired of the battles he's given up now
It's December he's wearing a short sleeve top
Multi storey car park he's perched at the top
Aggressive Storms block the view for miles
he sees his whole life before his eyes..Before jack jumps he smiles
