I have always been open to listening to many different genres and knew at an early age that I wanted to be a singer. Still, I would have to say that songwriting has turned out to be the most rewarding aspect of working on music. My greatest desire is that my love of storytelling will be evident to others and that these words will be able to touch someone else’s life.

Lyrics

Crash & Burn
Lyrics by Jakki Jelene

Verse 1:
Touched a rose but the thorns caused me to bleed
Should have known, but I'm much too young to see
All the danger that's surrounding me
Cannot hear the words that I should heed

Verse 2:
Intertwined by greed and my desire 
Mapping out a plan that conspire
Gathering the tools it will require
Moving toward the thing I aspire

Chorus:
And there's nothing that men say
That can change my pathway
Even if I crash and burn

Verse 3:
Devious and wild is more sincere
Sweet and mild is how I will appear
If I'm caught the punishment severe
The only hope is if I persevere

Verse 4:
Every step I'm walking on a line
As I'm plotting out my latest crime
I can't help if this is my design
We're all masters of our own decline

Chorus:
And there's nothing that men say
That can change my pathway
Even if I crash and burn (let me burn)

Bridge:
And now is the time
To pay for my crime
But it's not the end
It starts all over again

Chorus:
But there is nothing that men say
That can change my pathway
Even if I crash and burn

There is nothing that men say
That can change my pathway
Even if I crash and burn (let me burn)
