This is an upbeat electronic, male vocal driven pop song about knowing someone who is hooked on drugs and needs to stop. Very emotional lyrics and catchy melodies. Also available in an Instrumental version.

| Lyrics: | Are you just waking up? Can you see the sun down there? Have you had enough? All your walls are closing in So take those pills you love but they won't cover up the lies or get you high enough to forget that you've chosen this life I know I know I know that you've fallen get up, get out of the hole that you've crawled in Don't waste your time don't think you can't save yourself One little word can break the spell No, to those artificial getaways No, to the chemicals that flood your veins Damned if you don't, hope if you just say no Damned if you don't, hope you can just say no So that grave you dug, is it deep enough to hide from the ones you love? Buried in your selfish pride You've been searching for so long but you've missed every sign pushing limits chasing demons now you've crossed the line I know you know I know that you're falling climbing too high, too fast, and then stalling You need to change get out of your own way you've gotta find the will to say No, to artificial getaways No, to the chemicals that flood your veins Damned if you don't, hope if you just say no No, to any fix sold quick and cheap No, to that rush they sell you on the street Damned if you don't, hope if you just say no Damned if you don't, hope you can just say no I know I know I know that you've fallen get up, get out of the hole that you've crawled in climbing too high, too fast, and then stalling won't stop the pills, the demons from calling Say no, say no, say no, man you've got this You know, you know, you know you can stop this Damned if you don't you've got to take control Life is a train and you're the conductor choosing your fate, derail and destruct or pull on the brake there's hope it's never too late |

Jamestown Story
These days, you don't find many independent artists capable of making a living off their music; Dane Schmidt however, has done so successfully for the last seven years, without the help of a record label. When you dig deeper into the Jamestown Story, it becomes very apparent why.
The Jamestown Story began in 2003 and since that time has independently sold over 250k songs on iTunes, 25k albums, toured 35 US states, played 350+ shows including tours in Canada & Japan, and has had over 75 TV placements on shows such as Dr. Phil, Jersey Shore, Snooki & JWoww, The Challenge Rivals 2, Teen Mom 2, One Tree Hill, The Real World, and Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
With an undeniable work ethic and the ability to adjust and change to the always shifting music industry, you can be confident that the Jamestown Story will be continuing to add more chapters to its tale for awhile.
