Ok so this is my ode to that concoction of caribbean moonshine, JACKIRON! some of the best and worst nights of my life spent drinking that there!!! When Myke Forte passed me this beat i liked it, and was going to fling some bragadocio type of rhymes on it, but this shit must have sparked some memory about drinking jack because i found myself flowing these bars out! ahah, if we ever cross paths, whoever you are, i hope we can drink jackiron together!!

lyrics

Verse
Give me a little shot of liquor, say a single shot
something to sip and not a spirit that'll go to my head and rip it off
WHAT? there's only jack? That i cannot handle
by the way that's jack as Iron, not Daniels
See, Simon is my man and his fam are from Curacao
and whenever they travel they always bring back a brew
and Si is sorta partial, to the firewater
and his mother's something like an expert at smuggling it by the border
before they left I made me quite an order
and the delivery has just come in and so now im signing for it
say Sayonara to functioning tonight
get ready to stumble, jumble your words and double your sight
give me the biggest shot of liquor that'll hit me like a cinder block
probably put me in a box and make my friggin liver rot
WHAT??? we're out of jack, that i cannot handle
well fuck it if we're finished with the iron get the daniels
i shoot like John Wayne, Puke like one day
this'll probably catch up with me but i dont compain
Jyager's the entree, Ray and Nephew for the main
no excuse, lets shoot, unless you are afraid
the fuckin youth of today,
blazing a zoot in the cubical, chewing urinal cakes
i know, go head and screw up your face, must be disgusting
but trust, things are gettin worse, coz ive just started lusting
and any 2's looking like a 5 star and busting
is on the agenda so i'm getting head by the dustbin
this just in, urgent news flash
loose that, we moving venues for that new gash!!!

CHORUS
Another night out, Jack Iron in effect
til its lights out, that lad int right in the head
but you're only young once,
Flash we int that young no more
I said you only live once,
so take off the top and pour
Another night out, Jack Iron in effect
til its lights out, that lad int right in the head
but you're only young once,
Flash we int that young no more
I said you only live once,
so take off the top and pour
