First Single from my upcoming "Leaving California EP". Thank you for listening and i hope you enjoy!

lyrics

Pack the suitcase
Bring the Smog
Leaving California for my home
Fill a jar
With that ocean air
Setting sail with salt up in my hair

But the ink is on the paper
And the writings on the wall
I got silver in my pocket
And the sun within my heart
I got no enemies
And the oceans just so blue
But i'm leaving California
For you

Start the wagon and get me out of LA
She said don't look back
Unless you plan to stay
And all I is is rain
On the run away

Now I'm livin
In a place I won't call home
Suddenly my bones don't rest so young

So I ask you all too listen
Don't tread upon her faults
And the stories that she gives you
Play them through the halls
Your Majesty
You gave me all I got to lose
But i'm Leaving California
For you
