LYRICS:
A no every smile a smile 
Sometimes it takes a closer look to really realize 
To see beneath the Jacks of many faces wearing smiles 
If our visions were X-ray we’d see the evil in their eyes 
And a no every friend a friend
A nuff of them deh round but just a few are genuine 
Connect yourself with Jah and you will feel their energies 
Nuff want fi see you fall and woulda trade fi anything 
But I tell you just be 

-Chorus-
Careful of the ones 
The ones you call your friends 
‘Cause nuff of them a snake 
They’re filled with jealousy 
And they will let you down 
And keep an eye out for the ones you call your family 
They laugh with you today 
Pretend them genuine 
And they will let you down 

No think them always have your interest at heart 
Stop move like you no know say them will sit down and plot 
Nuff a them rather see you behind bars 
Never get too comfortable 
Pree them from your eye corner 
'Cause if you lapse them sell you out fi one burger  
Imagine what them woulda do fi millions and billions 
Smaller your circle a di better my brother 
Tings a get so dread might have to pree your own father

-Chorus-

Eyes them stay peeled like an orange  
Plus Jah deh pon mi side no need fi be worried 
Rastaman a no fool no watch the grin 
Might buss a little laugh that no mean me not watching you 
I man been burnt too many times 
Imagine how it hurt when you trust them till you blind 
I a tell you the truth people no nice 
If a that you did a pree beg you think that over twice 
And be

-Chorus-

Careful

Fight the Fight

Misery

When Jesse Royal was only a cub, the Lord revealed to his mother that she would have to release one of her sons to the world, proclaiming “he will be a psalmist, declaring righteousness and justice throughout creation.” As Jesse matured into a young lion, his mother observed in him a strong sense of integrity and a natural ability to positively affect those around him. But, it was his deep spirituality, passion for life and unique connection to music that would convince her that he was being molded to be used by the Creator. 

Jesse David Leroi Grey, aka Jesse Royal, was born April 29, 1989. He enjoyed his early years in the hills of Maroon Town and the District of Orange in St. James before moving in the late 90’s with his mother and brother to join his father in Kingston. As fate would have it, Royal developed a special relationship with Daniel ‘Bambaata’ Marley (son of Ziggy Marley) at school. His friendship with Daniel proved to be fuel to the fire as they shared a deep passion for music and football. Their friendship evolved as they spent a great part of their childhood together. Soon the natural inclination confirmed they were simply brothers with different mothers. As these cubs became lions so grew their devotion to music. With the help of longtime friend Curt ‘Qban’ White they began composing and creating their own music. And together they proceeded to fulfill what they knew was a predestined musical journey, designed to inspire, engage and unite people beyond all geographic borders. 

After Jesse returned home from schooling abroad, he reestablished a relationship with high school friend and young producer Kareem ‘Remus’ Burrell (son of Philip ‘Fatis’ Burrell). They began creating and composing music together also, which developed into a Movement as they shared similar views on the social state of Jamaica. 

Blessed with a voice that captures the pain and hunger of a ‘downtrodden’ people; Royal’s militant character and profound lyricism caught the heart of heralded reggae producer, Philip ‘Fatis’ Burrell. Fatis Burrell, affectionately called ‘Father’ had a great and pure impact on the ‘old soul’ of Jesse; as he credits him as an invaluable inspiration and one of the most influential individuals that he has ever encountered.

Working with musicians such as Sly Dunbar, Robbie Shakespeare, Donald Dennis, Earl ‘Chinna’ Smith and Monty Savory; Jesse is currently in the studio putting the final touches on his debut album with producer Kareem Burrell of the XTM.Nation. Jesse Royal has released three mixtapes , Misheni, In Comes The Small Axe and Royally Speaking with Major Lazer. His Debut Album "Lily of The Valley" is now available on all digital platforms.
