Jake Bird

Jake Bird (December 14, 1901 – July 15, 1949) was an American serial killer who was tried and executed for the axe murders of Bertha Kludt and her daughter Beverly June Kludt in Tacoma, Washington in 1947, and has since been linked to 11 other homicides across several states. It is also suspected that Bird may have killed as many as 46 people. In 1991 criminologist Eric W. Hickey, Ph.D, Director of Alliant International University's Center for Forensic Studies, wrote about how the Bird case challenges stereotypes of serial killers, who are mostly thought to be Caucasian males, whereas African-American killers typically are associated with urban violence.

I'm sick of overthinkin' my decisions
I'm sick of losin' instead of winnin'
I'm sick of doin' the same routine
But most of all, I'm sick of letting these
Distractions take control of me
They're blockin' my vision, I can't see
I'm tryna find out my destiny
And where I am meant to be
So back off, back off
Distractions are clouding my thoughts
Back off, back off
Distractions are leaving me lost
Yeah
These plans won't work if I don't change
Eventually distractions lead to pain
And if I continue to slip, I think I just might go insane
So what will I do
I'm not about to go through life thinking that I'm worthless
My goal's to live on this earth with some purpose
So when it rains down on me with its hate, know this
I'ma make my way till I reach the surface
Slowly rising up, yeah that's my lives curtain
And I can take the dirt that this world throws at me
Cause I feed from it, to me it's important (Woo)
But these goals won't happen if I'm inconsistent
Due to distractions in my daily livin'
Time is in my hands, like a pocket watch edition
So subtract all the bad habits till it's addition
Try to pick up the slack and quit letting them keep you distant
Position yourself until you make that difference
But it won't happen if I keep letting these
Distractions take control of me
They're blockin' my vision, I can't see
I'm tryna find out my destiny
And where I am meant to be
So back off, back off
Distractions are clouding my thoughts
Back off, back off
Distractions are leaving me lost
I'm sick of overthinkin' my decisions
I'm sick of losin' instead of winnin'
I'm sick of doin' the same routine
But most of all, I'm sick of letting, uh
I'm sick of overthinkin' my decisions
I'm sick of losin' instead of winnin'
I'm sick of doin' the same routine
But most of all, I'm sick of letting these
Distractions take control of me
They're blockin' my vision, I can't see
I'm tryna find out my destiny
And where I am meant to be
So back off, back off
Distractions are clouding my thoughts
Back off, back off
Distractions are leaving me lost
Are leaving me lost
Are leaving me lost
Are leaving me lost
Ooh, uh
Mhm-mm-hmm, mhm-mm-hmm
Mhm-mm-hmm, mhm-mm-hm
Mhm-mm-hmm, mhm-mm-hmm
Mhm-mm-hmm, mhm-mm-hm
