[Verse 1]
I believe in heaven, hell and everything in between
as a man i stand both hands dirty, tryin to get clean
but i can't, put my hand on the difference between
fiction and reality, sleepin n livin a dream
it seems, you see the smile so you know where i been
But this bubble of cloud 9 is tearing at the seams
A salt water reservoir, trying not to let the dam burst
In the arms of a woman, there you'll see a man hurt

To be an artist, you gotta be a fan first
To paint a picture of joy first, you gotta understand hurt
To speak on a blessing, you gotta feel a mans curse
catch a glimpse of heaven, lay in a herse
Lovin life but still I’m a flirt,
To all the things that be harming me, disregarding the part of me
That hears the alarms, making excuses like pardon me
see, my faith goes as far as my arms can reach

[Chorus]
I believe in heaven, but i think im goin through hell
im in the fire but i really can't tell, but its okay
ain't got a dollar in my pocket but these nikes ima rock'em
my girl thinks i still look fly, so its okay

[Verse 2]
I'm not Superman, i'm of a different type
matter fact, I'm kryptonite when I grip the mic
metaphors like metaphysics, I'm grindin with rhymes
dialin verses off the hook, i punch lines
see thats some hip hop ish
can't even cuss but i spit hot b
im just playin but really though
you need to step ya game up, you just average joe

yall tryin to make it rain till it starts pourin
write a 16 now you tryin to start tourin, 
honestly yall need to learn to appreciate the art form
dig into ya soul and find the heart for it
cuz this rap thing to me is what kept me goin
when i damn near ended my life, i started flowin
words on a page became lyrics to my life
dawg thats the reason i write

In memory of Lani Sinarwi. I'll love you always.


[Verse 1]
Eyes that light up the night, a smile that makes darkness bright
you make my heart take flight
a language of love that i can't hear, evades my eyes
but i feel it on the inside
when you touch me, when you hug me
all my ugly turns beautiful, 
God called, i guess it was your cue to go
I couldn't speak, hope you heard me at your funeral

you're a dancer, a figher, a true bad ass
fvck cancer, you had the last laugh	
our conversations to be continued, 
your dinner parties - a lot of love on the menu
i know you're not gone, i can feel you
with me, in me, around me, surround me
for the rest of my days cuz i need you 
party in the sky, till i see you again

[Verse 2]
So full of life, but gone in an instance
memories fade, with time comes distance, 
i'm holding on to your touch, your smell
your warmth, dont wana forget how it felt
being next to you, wish i could have protected you
you gave me all, nothin more i could expect from you
wishin i could rewind time, by your bedside
your hand in mine, look you in the eye

and tell you i love you too, and that i miss you
wishin i could hold you, just kiss you, one last time
dont wana lose you, i can't afford to
wishin i could take that sickness and fight it for you
but death is but a vapor, a whisper in the wind
the final step through the door to where eternity begins
and we all go, one day
so I look forward to seeing you again, some day

Someday (Prod. Freddie Joachim)

Time Alone (Prod. by Diamond Style)

Should i stay? should i move on?
cuz im thinkin that i been here for too long
cuz im ready to pack, think of doublin back
but somethings pullin me back and its too strong
and my friends be like jae what are you on, 
and im like man this girl got me too on
and i tell myself wait ill give it another week
but then when i see ya face, its like i cant even speak

its like you got me sinkin deep how i cant even breathe
its like you got me on a high blunts can't even reach
and im soarin through the clouds when im spreadin these wings
got me thinkin one day maybe make you my queen
im like damn, jae slow down, 
this aint how its supposed to go down, you know how
girls nowadays tell you that you're the one
really lyin through they teeth, n they just wana have fun

they be up in the clubs, they just tryin to get drunk
give it up to any guy sayin they'll fill up they cup
they just want the attention, they just fillin a void
im just tryin to make sure that this aint the same story
i wana know, are you like that
if i wrote a love letter would you write back
gotta put my train of thought on the right track
you got me blind in the dark i want my sight back

i got a thing for you, im tryin to fight that
you got me weak in the knees i dont like that
and i know i should go, but im wantin to stay
you're like the drug i dont need, im addicted to pain
guess what im tryin to say, is im a little afraid
its like i know the record ends still im lettin it play
thats why im usually gone before the end of the day
thats why im usually gone before the end of the day
..


so should i stay, should i move on like usual
got a million things i wana say to you, do to you
you should know, n everytime i tell you you're hot, 
deep inside im thinkin you're beautiful, 

truth

[Hook]
I gotta get movin, gotta stop wastin time, 
gotta make up my mind, will i stay, will i go whats it gona be
cuz i refuse to let life take me where it pleases
whats it gona be?

[Verse 1]
I'm chillin like, a hero,
picture perfect motion picture, robert deniro
its whatever i could change up the stilo,
either way its Crazy, kinda like Ceelo
im freezing hot, thousand degrees below
stay on point, packin heat, agent zero
here to steal ya heart, call me the Repo man
watch the world turn good vs. evil, dang, 

questions floodin my mind, 
sittin back watchin life play out wishin i could hit the rewind
pressin record, with the pen i am raw
writin, thoughts like lightnin when i brainstorm,
wage war, the kid blazin a sword
words and phrases, slice like razers,
matter fact light sabers when i use the force
the spirit of God of course, what you thought


[Verse 2]
i don't drink much, i don't smoke either
but i retaliate when provoked, ether
my toes have been stepped on, my mind carries
a weapon that can't be traced with metal detection
inhale deep, realize the youth are in hell deep
their world views shaped by what they saw, 
but what they saw wasn't real, yet they navigate
not with logic, but with what they feel

this is dangerous, pinocchio jeppeto
puppets tryin to look pretty dancin with the devil
i mean, what would it take for a soul to rise
cuz nowadays i see clearer when i close my eyes
this is mass deception, lethal injection
deadlier than bombs listen we need protection
Lord we need you, in these last days
let my actions not return void before i pass away

Gotta Get

Produced by Soulchef

[Chorus]
Sleep all day, work all night
can't relax cuz im on my grind
tryin to get my life together
keep smilin cuz everything will be alright

kick it all day, party all night
make a little time to celebrate life
tryin to get my life together
keep smilin cuz everything will be alright


[verse 1]
Quick, grab another bottle
sip it slow, cuz lifes movin fast, full throttle
i just can't seem to keep up
can't relax, can't kick my feet up
cuz at school, teachers keep tellin me stuff
n at work my boss wont let me speak up
n at church i can't close my eyes and reach up
without tears streamin down my cheeks, what

real men cry when they feelin beat up
cuz the world tells them they'll never be enough
i dont need luck, i need faith 
a couple real friends, just to get in my face
a family at home where we can say grace
a couple good books just to help me relate
just a pen and a pad, a beat and a mic
pretty girl by my side i'ma be alright


[verse2]
worked a couple jobs, pockets feelin odd
tryin to break even, thankful that im breathin
still, humble, its hard to be, pardon me
the stress from the city bothers me horribly
When they ask how I'm doin i tell'em so so
i'm kinda bothered but i keep that on the low low
take a pretty girl to dinner but im broke though
still keep it fly, leather shoes and a polo

oh, you ain't heard?
Jae Rich 25, livin under the stairs
i mean stars, yep i've come this far
say i pick u up at 8, i aint comin with a car though
chill mama, i can be ya papa,
ain't a billionaire but i can treat you proper
couple drinks maybe down a couple shots
and see how we feel about it tomorrow

Be Alright

Produced by Pete Rock

[Verse 1]
Hello darkness, just let me spark this
get a light, take flight, to a place farfetched
the taste of her lips, i had to part with
so bittersweet, so heartless
sat n watched as my soul she departed with
mind and heart - my art she departed with
loved her like a candle burnin through a cold night
and then she blew a kiss n she snuffed my light

said i'd never fall in love, just step into it
but you never see that jagged edge, and then you slip
loco motives, motives are loco
then it hits you like a locotomotive, oh no
should have never flirted with death
but its those times u feel alive and blessed
n suddenly ya heart feels like treasure in ya chest
n suddenly her heart feels like treasure in ya chest
and I'm gone

[Verse 2]
You wana vanish like you're not there
ghost out of its shell, smoke in the air
you wana be in outer space with no cares
forget the weed these rhymes will take you there
and I'll take you there, space odyssey
we'll get higher than stoned philosophy
till i hear the voice of reason callin me
till I hear the voice of Jesus callin me

look the devil in the eye, do you notice me
struggle in the lyrics, the pain in the poetry
wishin i could find the trigger and then pull it
find freedom as my soul leaves with the bullet
morbid, maybe, orphaned baby, 
tormented by love, insane crazy
home is where the heart turns sour
im goin home, my plane leaves in an hour
